Clinical Supply Chain Integration & Value Analysis

1. Clinically Integrated Culture*

Clinicians are not involved with supply chain. Supply chain predominantly focuses on cost.
Clinicians advise supply chain on large-spend projects upon request.
Multidisciplinary value analysis teams facilitate the integration of supply chain and clinical representatives for most procurement initiatives.
A formal, enterprise-wide clinical value analysis model supports clinical integration into all supply chain operations.

2. Executive Oversight of Clinical Value Analysis Initiatives*

The C-suite is never involved. Individual departments are responsible for their own cost or quality initiatives.
The C-suite provides some oversight, but only for major cost reduction, capital purchases, or other major supply chain-related initiatives.
Supply chain leadership oversees cost reduction initiatives, involving clinicians as needed, and provides regular reports to the C-suite.
C-suite involvement is evident; members of the C-suite participate on an Executive Steering Committee that approves clinician-led value analysis initiatives.

3. Product, Service & Technology Evaluations*

Various departments or facilities perform new evaluations without collaboration.
Various departments or facilities perform new evaluations, with some supply chain oversight for major initiatives.
Large-spend products that require trials and evaluation are brought to a value analysis committee prior to purchase.
All product evaluations are run through a formal value analysis process that collects trial results; the results are reported at team meetings.
