# Envi Supply Chain MCP > Envi Healthcare Supply Chain MCP lets your AI agent manage hospital procurement and medical inventory in real time. Track purchase orders across facilities, check current stock levels for specific supplies like gauze or reagents, and audit authorized medical vendors without opening a single dashboard. ## Overview - **Category:** inventory-management - **Price:** Free - **Tags:** medical-supplies, procurement, purchase-orders, vendor-management, clinical-operations, inventory-tracking ## Description You don't need to jump through three different portals just to figure out if you have enough sterile gauze for the ER. This MCP connects your AI agent directly to Envi’s supply chain platform. Instead of manually cross-referencing stock sheets, PO logs, and vendor lists, you simply ask natural language questions about your facility’s supplies. Your agent can immediately tell you which departments are running low on critical items, list every pending purchase order awaiting approval, or pull up details on authorized medical suppliers. This means clinical operations staff get fast answers without the headache of navigating complex systems. When you connect this MCP via Vinkius, it becomes one conversational layer that handles everything from inventory audits to vendor compliance checks. ## Tools ### get_envi_account_metadata Pulls general information and usage limits for your Envi account. ### get_supply_stock_level Checks the current stock count for one specific medical item (SKU). ### get_po_technical_details Retrieves detailed line items and settings for a single purchase order number. ### quick_healthcare_supply_audit Generates an immediate, high-level summary covering POs, inventory, and supply requests. ### list_healthcare_facilities Provides a list of all hospitals and clinics configured in your organization's system. ### list_medical_inventory_levels Lists the current stock levels for medical supplies across every facility location you manage. ### list_critical_stock_alerts Identifies and lists all medical items whose inventory count is currently below the safety minimum. ### list_healthcare_pos Lists every purchase order created or processed in your Envi account. ### list_latest_supply_requisitions Shows the most recently submitted requests for medical supplies across departments. ### list_medical_vendors Retrieves a list of all authorized and approved vendors in your network. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` List all pending healthcare purchase orders. ``` **Response:** ``` I've found 8 pending purchase orders, including 'PO-2024-001' ($4,500 for Surgical Supplies) and 'PO-2024-005' ($1,200 for Lab Reagents). 5 are awaiting manager approval.

The nurse asks their agent: 'What is the stock level for sterile gauze at Main Hospital?' The agent uses `get_supply_stock_level` and immediately replies with 250 boxes, noting that 50 are already reserved for the trauma bay. ### The quarterly audit needs to verify all approved suppliers. The manager asks: 'Show me our authorized medical vendors.' The agent uses `list_medical_vendors`, providing a list of 12 active suppliers, saving hours of database searching. ### A critical department needs to know if a PO for specialty equipment is delayed. The specialist asks the agent to review pending orders. The agent uses `list_healthcare_pos` to find the order and then runs `get_po_technical_details`, reporting that 5 are awaiting manager sign-off. ### It's week-end inventory check, and nothing is documented. The director asks: 'Give me a full audit of our supplies.' The agent runs `quick_healthcare_supply_audit`, delivering a single report that summarizes PO activity, low stock warnings, and recent supply requests. ## Benefits - Stop manually tracking stock. Use `get_supply_stock_level` to check the real-time count for any medical item at a specific location instantly. - Cut down on approval chasing. Run `list_healthcare_pos` to see all purchase orders and then use `get_po_technical_details` to grab the specifics of one PO number. - Never run out of supplies again. Use `list_critical_stock_alerts` to get an immediate list of everything that needs ordering before it hits zero. - Get a big picture view fast. The `quick_healthcare_supply_audit` tool gives you the total status on PO volume, inventory health, and requisitions in one go. - Simplify vendor compliance. Use `list_medical_vendors` to maintain a clean record of who is authorized to supply your facility. - Audit everything at once. Combine `list_medical_inventory_levels` with `list_healthcare_facilities` to understand stock across every single department. ## How It Works The bottom line is you talk to it like a person, and it handles all the complex data calls across POs, inventory, and vendors in the background. 1.
