Certification: Eligible for 0.1 CE credit from the ACI
In today’s healthcare environment, clinical engineering departments are expected to do more with less. Many CE Directors look to their supply chain to cut costs, but do not have a strong evaluation process to ensure they are selecting the best supply chain partners. Members from Allina Health will take attendees through the process of identifying current pitfalls and opportunities, goals, strategy, RFP, and ultimately finding the right supply chain partner or partners. Once the strategy is in place and supply chain partners are chosen, there is critical data that must be utilized and evaluated to ensure all partners stay on goal. PartsSource’s Erin Tournoux will review critical data and analytics necessary to certify an optimized procurement process along with vendor evaluation metrics that can be implemented in any Clinical Engineering department.
3 Key Takeaways:
- Attendees will learn a 5 step process to optimize their supply chain relationships
- Attendees will understand how to start a restructuring process and define their facility’s procurement goals
- Attendees will be able to recognize key metrics needed to continually evaluate procurement vendors
