Supply Chain Advisory

Supply chain spend is one of your biggest costs.
It doesn't have to be.

We partner with health systems to find and capture hard-dollar savings through strategic sourcing, contract renegotiation, GPO optimization, value analysis, and purchased services — without slowing down your operations.

Talk to our supply chain team

Sound familiar?

What we hear from health systems every day

  • Rising costs and ongoing margin pressure with no clear path to relief
  • Contracts that haven't been renegotiated in years — or ever
  • Physician preferences driving spend that no one's ever pushed back on
  • GPO membership that isn't being fully leveraged
  • Purchased services spend that's completely unmanaged
  • A supply chain team that's reactive, not strategic

What that's costing you

  • ~35%

    Supply and purchased services typically represent ~35% of operating expenses

  • 5–10%

    Most health systems leave 5–10% in savings on the table annually

  • $$

    Without proactive contract management, you're paying yesterday's prices for today's needs

What we focus on

Six areas where health systems consistently find savings — and where we consistently deliver them.

Strategic Sourcing

We run competitive sourcing events and renegotiate contracts to get you better pricing, better terms, and better vendors — across both clinical supplies and purchased services.

GPO Optimization

Most systems aren't getting everything their GPO membership offers. We find the compliance gaps, maximize price concessions, and capture the administrative share-back revenue you're leaving behind.

Value Analysis

We build or improve your value analysis process so clinical and operational teams are aligned on product decisions — reducing variation and cost without compromising care.

Physician Preference Items (PPI)

Implants, pacemakers, orthopedics — these are high-cost and physician-driven. We engage physicians and leadership to standardize where it makes sense and negotiate where it doesn't.

Purchased Services

From food services and linen to biomedical and IT — if you're paying for a service through a contract, we can likely find savings in it.

Supply Chain Governance

We help your supply chain department earn its seat at the table — with the structure, accountability, and analytics to function as a strategic partner to leadership, not just a purchasing department.
