Hi Owen,
That is correct. We recently migrated from HECS to ECRI-AIMS. AIMS is
initially more cumbersome, but this improves with familiarity. The
reporting and data analysis capabilities are superior with AIMS, but
as a downside the user is required to enter more data than with HECS.
Consequently, upper management like AIMS, technical staff find it a
bit bloated. Im happy to elaborate more but there are certainly people
that use it more extensively than myself. There are a few hospitals in
WA that now use AIMS so perhaps someone else can comment.
Regards,
Andrew Vincent
Technical Officer
Royal Perth Hospital

Hello again,
Naren Gajjar and Ken Wilson from Queensland Health responded that
BTS is currently processing the rollout of ECRI-AIMS version
2.3.0.6.1.
Ken advised that he believed “WA are using ECRI-AIMS as this has
replaced HECS. They are using it at Royal Perth and Sir Charles
Gardiner and Princess Margaret.”
I look toward to someone from Western Australia telling me more.
Cheers,
Owen.

Subject: [bmelist] Phoenix Data's AIMS
Hello All,
Anyone out there using the Phoenix Data’s AIMS equipment management
system.
What’s your experience? If you previously used ECRI HECS4, how does
AIMS compare?
Look forward to learning more about this AIMS product.
Cheers,
Owen.
