SP Datapoint Wins Prestigious 2008 GOOD DESIGN™ Award
Mission, Kan. — The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and the European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies has awarded a 2008 GOOD DESIGN Award to ScriptPro’s SP Datapoint, designed by KEM STUDIO, Kansas City, MO.
The GOOD DESIGN program emphasizes design of the highest form, function, and aesthetic. Products that are submitted to the program are judged by a jury of distinguished design professionals and specialists using criteria established in the original 1950 program.
ScriptPro’s SP Datapoint meets the rigorous criteria for its design. ScriptPro and KEM STUDIO developed SP Datapoint as a compact, interactive countertop unit for entering, filling, verifying, dispensing, and tracking prescriptions. Keeping in mind the tight counter space in most pharmacies, it integrates an adjustable-height touchscreen monitor, barcode scanner, and an optional SP Printer labeling device to provide workflow control and dispensing accuracy in a small environment. SP Datapoint is part of SP Central Retail Store Package, which includes SP Central Pharmacy Management System.
The GOOD DESIGN program was founded in Chicago in 1950, and remains the oldest and most prestigious awards program worldwide. The SP Datapoint was chosen from hundreds of submissions from over 48 nations. Other 2008 GOOD DESIGN winners include the iMac, iPod Touch, and HP TouchSmart PC.
