Tennessee is the most recent jurisdiction to acquire Integrated Warehousing Solutions’ Go Kit — a portable warehouse that monitors medical treatment supplies in disaster preparedness situations. The system comes in a custom designed storage container and features a laptop computer with supporting software and wireless devices for recording distribution and patient data.

Also included are printers and a satellite telephone.

A spokesman for the Downers Grove, Ill., company says the mobile warehouse management system can be up and running in as little as 12 minutes.
