I can’t
believe that supply chain professionals still don’t get
it! That it’s not your job to do all of
the work of your supply value analysis teams. By doing
all of the work you are, in fact, reducing the
productivity of your team by 10-fold and
thwarting the ownership of your savings ideas by your
team’s members by 60% to 80%. Aren’t you looking
for ways to do your work quicker, better
and smarter?
Instead
of doing all the work you should be filling the new
roles of consultant, trainer, coach, facilitator and
resource for your value team to assist your members
to grow in performance. Most importantly, looking
for new and better systems to employ to save more!
By doing so you will enable your team members to gain
the commitment, persistence and
discipline that is necessary to move your team
members to the next level of savings performance. And
guess what, you will save more in the process!
To help
you further understand what I mean by how “making
things easier on yourself could help you save more in
less time.” I would like to share with you my
million dollar savings
system that I GUARANTEE will ease your supply
value analysis workload, increase your savings yields
and gain you the acceptance and recognition you deserve!
Isn’t time to start saving money in a quicker, better
and smarter fashion before you run out of
steam and collapse from overwork.
Your Partner in Supply Chain Savings,
Are We Fooling Ourselves Into Believing We Are Really
Saving All That We Can For Our Hospital?
“You
Can Fool Yourself That You Are Saving All The Money You
Can Some Of The Time, But You Can’t Fool Your Bosses All
Of The Time.”
There is a new game in healthcare being
played everyday called, “We Are Saving All Of The
Money We Can In Our Supply Chain”. This is
permeating our supply chain culture. We are even
convincing our bosses to play this game -- some of the
time. But you can’t fool your bosses all of the time,
because they are catching on to
this game.
I’m hearing from more and more supply
chain professionals who are telling me that their bosses
don’t believe there are “no more savings” in
their supply chain. They are asking for proof
from their supply chain professionals in the form of
reliable benchmarks, extensive surveys and comprehensive
audits. I’m also hearing from scores of CFOs who are
asking me to provide them with our “Strategic Supply
Savings Analysis” service to enable them to obtain a
second opinion on whether there is more savings to be
achieved in their hospital’s supply expenses. With the
result that we are uncovering 3%, 6% or even 9%
in supply chain savings being left on the table --
untouched at every hospital, system and IDN that we are
auditing for supply chain professionals or their bosses.
So as far as I’m concerned the game is
over, because you can fool yourself that you are saving
all the money you can some of the time, but you can’t
fool your bosses all of the time. They aren’t going to
play your game any longer.
Now progressive supply chain
professionals understand that they can’t play this game
any longer (if they ever did) and still remain credible
in their bosses’ eyes. They have accepted the truth
that supply savings are always possible if you know
where to look for them. They are vigorously searching
out resources to help them to more effectively
benchmark, survey and audit to drill down and dig out
their supply chain opportunities so they can be ahead of
the wave when their bosses start looking over their
shoulder and asking questions that they don’t know the
answers to like what are your savings goals and
objectives for 2006.
If you think you can continue to play the
game of, “We Are Saving All Of The Money We Can In
Our Supply Chain”, for very much longer you
better start looking over you shoulder too, because your
bosses have caught onto this game and have decided not
to play it any longer.
