Changing The Game!

Every so often an idea, innovation, invention or revolution appears in the marketplace that changes the game forever.  I call these breakthroughs “Game Changers” or rules and variation that change the game enough that a new or different game emerges.  

Innovations such as LEAN management and Six Sigma are good examples of how giant leaps forward were made possible in inventory management and quality improvement by changing the rules of these two disciplines.

These “Game Changers” usually come about when companies or whole industries are faced with big challenges.  For instance, Toyota’s focus in the 1940s and 1950s on eliminating waste and inefficiencies in their production was motivated by their quest to compete with the American automobile industry; an industry that was 50 times the size of their Japanese market. Still another factor was the need for them to have fast, flexible processes that gave their customers what they wanted, when they wanted them at the highest possible quality and at an affordable price for their own small domestic market just after World War II.

This quest for perfection by Toyota is now known as the breakthrough concept called LEAN Management, which has revolutionized the automobile industry.  LEAN Management by definition was a “Game Changer” for not only one company, but for a whole industry. 

Fast forward 60 years: Healthcare organizations are now facing a similar big challenge: how can hospitals, systems and IDNs continue to reduce their supply chain expenses when their price savings are slowly disappearing? More importantly, price savings was and is the primary supply chain savings engine for more than 99 years.  Where are the next supply chain savings coming from? The simple answer is “Supply Utilization Management”, which can open up a whole new world of supply chain savings that you never knew existed!

This isn’t a theory or hypothesis any longer Our intensive research, comprehensive studies and the hundreds of client assignments over the last 10 years has proven beyond a doubt that “Supply Utilization Management” is a new revolutionary discipline that all supply chain professionals need to master if their healthcare organizations are to continue to achieve double-digit supply chain savings in the future.

That’s why we have written the book “Healthcare Supply Utilization Revolution”. With this book we can take you behind the curtain of “Supply Utilization Management so that you can quickly learn the little known secrets of this revolutionary and emerging need-to-know best practice.

Furthermore, it is our goal with this book to be your guides in these uncharted waters so that you can make this evolutionary transition from price to “Supply Utilization Management” as painlessly, productively and as easily as possible.
