Air Traffic Control

GPS for the day of surgery

Every day, your charge nurses and anesthesia leadership juggle the same impossible task: deploying staff, assigning rooms, managing breaks, handling reliefs, and adapting to changes. They do it with whiteboards, spreadsheets, and group texts. It works until it doesn't.

ORlogic Air Traffic Control gives your board runners a digital command center for day-of surgical suite management.

Three screens. One workflow.

From day-before planning to day-of execution

The day unfolds in three stages. ORlogic gives each one a purpose-built surface — and carries context seamlessly between them.

01

Staff deployment

The day before surgery, deploy your team across locations. See how many rooms each location is running, what staffing solutions are recommended, and assign people where they're needed. Split assignments across locations. Publish when you're ready.

02

Room assignments

At each location, assign staff to specific rooms and cases. See the full timeline of who is where and when. Track progress against staffing models. The system prevents conflicts automatically.

03

The board

Run the day. Start from published assignments and adapt in real time. Track breaks, relieve staff when shifts end, close rooms as cases finish. Every change is timestamped.

Real-time control, without the chaos

The tools charge nurses actually touch

Drag & drop

Move staff to rooms, cases, and locations with intuitive drag interactions.

SMS to staff

Text room assignments and live updates directly to people — no group chats or whiteboard hunts.

Break tracking

Tied to shift profiles. See who needs relief and who can self-cover.

Alerts & announcements

Tag meetings, early-out requests, and messages to specific staff.

Timeline view

Cases and assignments side by side to identify coverage gaps at a glance.

Cross-location visibility

Deploy staff across your entire health system from one screen.

Live board

Every room, every case, one view

The Air Traffic Control board gives your team a shared picture of the day — and a common way to act when things change.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Air Traffic Control is a dynamic layer on top of your scheduled board. It pulls live data from your EHR and scheduling systems, so it reflects the actual state of the OR in real time — not yesterday's plan.

ORlogic recalculates the impact across rooms and shifts, surfaces the affected staff and cases, and shows you the recommended adjustments — with cost and coverage implications visible before you commit.

Built-in messaging lets you reach eligible staff directly through SMS, track responses in-platform, and confirm coverage without jumping between tools or making last-minute phone calls.

Typically OR managers, charge nurses, anesthesia coordinators, and perioperative leaders. It gives everyone a shared view of the day — and a common way to act on changes as they happen.

Seamless with what you already use

Deploy on its own — or as part of the platform.

Air Traffic Control works as a standalone day-of command center for teams that need it today — or alongside the rest of the ORlogic platform. Deployed together, it shares the same staff schedule data, case data, and staffing solutions as your calendar, daily staffing page, and patient flow reports. No duplicate entry, no new logins — your team already knows the interface, and ATC just extends it to day-of operations.
