Leaders in hospitals and healthcare systems struggle with fragmented information systems, multiple inventory sites and many decision makers. Costs associated with transportation, shipping, storage, waste, labor and management are often neglected factors in day-to-day supply decisions. IT solutions that allow cross functional involvement, end-to-end process mapping and cost data identification tend to identify potential opportunities for cost savings as well as reduce hidden costs. Making cost information available to department leaders and clinicians in key areas will result in process improvement. Knowledge Space International is adept at this level of information management.
