Not only is the supply chain executive increasingly asked to participate in the hospital’s strategic initiatives that have at their core, the basic goals of reducing costs, improving quality and engaging providers in a collaborative manner to serve patients, but he or she is looking beyond the confines of the organization and U.S. based system to a growing global economy. A new business model for effective global supply management promises to decrease the complexity in sourcing medical products while significantly decreasing costs and offers the executive an opportunity to “do more with less”, a recurring theme in today’s health care climate. Evaluating the value proposition requires that the executive understand what the manufacturers’ best practices are for assuring product quality and safety.
