Tom Redding, Executive Vice President and Healthcare Practice Lead at St Onge Company, discusses why healthcare organizations need to regularly assess their supply chain operations to stay competitive and efficient in today's challenging environment.
• The importance of taking a pause to benchmark operations, especially for new leaders who have about two years to make their mark
• Why health systems should evaluate their department performance, consistency of workflows, and clarity of expectations
• Key areas to assess: logistics, inventory management, organizational structure, technology systems, facility infrastructure, and performance management
• How decentralization of healthcare delivery creates new logistical challenges that require strategic planning
• The value of conducting objective third-party assessments rather than relying on vendor-provided "free" evaluations
• Why operations teams need strategic planning just as facilities teams develop master plans
• The critical importance of having the right people with the right skills in the right positions
• How healthcare delivery is increasingly focused on logistics as care moves into homes and community settings
