Hi,
The final decision was made higher up the tree than me.
The Trust is made up of 4 former trusts that were all using something different as Inventory Management Systems. The 'new' Trust compared several IMS' to decide which one to standardise with, EMAT came out the clear winner in several different fields, not just Equipment Library Modules.
Personally EMS 4.3.1 that we had graduated to, was limited in the Loan Module and to be honest, bloody hard work. Although as a disclaimer i must point out that other Trusts have found it to be useful.
If you want any more info that would probably be libellous on here lol, please drop me a line
