Balancing the Big Picture with Effective Inventory Management Practices

Join Speare Memorial, Cone Health and VCU Health, healthcare organizations of different sizes, as they share real-world examples of how to improve supply chain resiliency. This session explores how supply chain teams must think far beyond managing inventory costs to strike a balance between proper inventory management practices and mitigating the risk of supply shortages.

In the face of ongoing disruptions, traditional supply chain management techniques, such as JIT, may be the right approach for some supplies, but not all.

Panelists:

• Joe Caristi, CFO, Speare Memorial Hospital

• Billy Puckett, Assistant Director, Sourcing, Cone Health

• Andria Davis, Director, Strategic Sourcing, Contracting and Value Analysis, VCU Health 

Moderator: Hitch Pursel, Manager, SMB Provider Sales, GHX
