Supply chain research

We work with hospital and health system leaders to develop revenue cycle best practices to help you address your key business questions: 

1. What are the best practices for topics like product standardization, value analysis, finding cost savings, inventory and vendor management, and clinician buy-in?
2. What are benchmarks for staffing, performance, and productivity?
3. What cost savings initiatives have my peers found successful?
4. How does one product compare to another?
5. How do we move forward after COVID-19 exposed shortcomings in supplier transparency?

Responding to emerging trends

• Strategic management:
  Addressing overarching issues, from accommodating the changing scope of supply chain to gauging department and staff performance.
• Value management:
  Making sourcing and procurement decisions that account for product efficacy and value—rather than cost alone—and are sustainable in today’s marketplace.
• Operations and category management:
  Structuring operations to enhance inventory management and distribution as well as other administrative and ancillary services.
