For Healthcare Providers and Public Health, the outbreak of the pandemic is creating unprecedented challenges - from disrupted supply chains and the inability to adequately protect patients and healthcare personnel, to a massive shortage of capacity, personnel, drugs, devices, testing kits and supplies.
We would like to commence this opening session with a focus on the most critical Supply Chain Management (SCM) relevant issues confronting healthcare providers and public health agencies given the recent disruption.
Here are a mission-critical challenge / use case we would like to highlight and focus the conversation on your readiness to respond rapidly to the supply chain disruption, while balancing this with ‘business as usual’ as below:
Challenge: Manage Supply Chain Disruption in the wake of the Pandemic and balance with “Business as Usual”
The COVID-19 Pandemic is presenting unprecedented and unforeseen challenges in terms of medical staff, equipment, protective attire, drugs and devices for Hospitals. Hospitals need to collaborate with entirely new suppliers and create new supply chains for ventilators, masks, Personal Protection Equipment (PPE), COVID-19 testing kits etc. while managing and balancing this with their existing supply chain to meet the needs of patients not afflicted by COVID-19.
As well, maverick (off-contract) buying is a huge challenge costing $ MM facing healthcare providers today, which will likely be exacerbated by the Pandemic. Leveraging self-service analytics to integrate data from the ERP, EMR and procurement and analyze these to pin-point maverick buying will save hospitals $ MM.
Strategic Readiness Questions:
Does this challenge and the questions below resonate with you, your organization and your leadership? Are there critical supply chain related challenges and issues we are missing here? What is keeping you awake at night at this time?
We would love to hear your thoughts and discuss how we can potentially help you from an AI, Data and Insights perspective on this forum.
Thanks and regards,
Andy
