MedTrack will develop the software platform
that will integrate the hardware components
required to transpond, receive, and compile
inventory data. The solution will be marketed
to hospitals with at least 150-bed capacities.


Management


MedTrack is led by Ivanette Bonilla, who has
an MBA and several years of experience in
developing products. The rest of the found-
ing team has several years of experience in
marketing, finance, and operations. All the
members of the management team also have
MBA degrees.


Product and Competition


The overall outlook for MedTrack and RFID
applications looks to be that of high growth as
the industry is expected to grow rapidly to $3
billion in the next two years. The spectrum of
existing firms offering RFID solutions ranges
from small start-ups to industry giants such as
Motorola, Siemens and Texas Instruments.
However, only about four or five firms offer
RFID solutions to hospitals. Research on
these companies indicates less than a total of
five RFID implementations in hospitals.


Funds Requested


MedTrack is requesting $5 million in cash
funds in lieu of equity. Toward the end of the
first year of operation, MedTrack will also
attempt to borrow $4 million in fixed inter-
est loans.


Use of Proceeds


MedTrack will invest approximately $3 mil-
lion in the first year and about $5 million in


the second year toward research and develop-
ment of the product/service.
Exit
At the end of five years, the projected value
of the business is $170 million. Based on the
initial investment of $6 million, the terminal
value of the business represents an IRR of
107 percent. Depending on the market con-
ditions, an IPO of the business will be con-
sidered at the end of year five. Other scenar-
ios of merger with an equivalent-sized com-
pany might also be considered if the market
for IPO is not attractive.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

History
Historically, hospitals have invested less in
Information Technology (IT) than in other
equipment. As a result they have failed to
enjoy fully the benefits of technology and the
information era. This has impacted the
industry both financially and operationally.

Current Situation. Because their primary
goal is to save lives, hospitals are not very
efficient in inventory control, and write off
at least 15 percent of inventory as lost or
stolen. Furthermore, a hospital’s inability to
track its vital supplies and equipment can
prevent it from providing timely care and
treatment. In addition, most hospitals do
not have tools to help prevent errors like
administering the wrong medication to
patients. Such errors cost as many as
100,000 lives a year in the United States.
