In order to plan for logistics needs, data regarding the availability of logistics and consumption of logistics is required. Disposable logistics needs are adjusted to meet the minimum standards required by the ambulance unit, both for medicine and supplies. AIM: We are conducting this research mainly for field experience in analyzing ambulance logistics systems at Industrial City locations in Qatar as well as for referral purposes and emergency response purposes. Method: Logistics data reports will provide information and facilitate decision-making at various levels of detail. Result: Logistics support for ambulance services consisted of the following activities: (1). Presenting stock inventory report; (2) Predicting logistics availability; (3) Reporting estimation size of logistics; and (4) Reporting analysis stock availability. Conclusion: A logistics information system for Ambulance services can be seen in the fact that it provides decision-makers with information for the purposes of procurement, purchasing, storage, and distribution of logistics to users. Recommendations: The availability of a logistics information system, which will increase the capacity of ambulance services, is expected to improve the capacity.
