Tecsys emerges as preferred end-to-end healthcare supply
chain software partner as hospitals, health systems and healthcare
3PLs modernize outdated systems to contend with evolving complexity
and regulations in healthcare logistics.
NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Tecsys Inc.
(TSX: TCS), an industry-leading supply chain management software
company, is privileged to announce that its Elite™ Healthcare
supply chain management platform is playing a fundamental role in
the U.S. healthcare industry as supply chains are remastered in the
aftermath of one of the nation's greatest operational stress tests.
Since the beginning of COVID-19 shutdowns, Tecsys has added nearly
a dozen new healthcare organizations to its network of customers
and deepened its partnerships with several existing customers, with
over 30 healthcare accounts investing in major supply chain
initiatives to help contend with the operational fractures exposed
by the pandemic.
Tecsys is working with a number of customers looking to leverage
technology better suited to the complexities of today's healthcare
supply chain. As previously announced, "By utilizing Tecsys'
services, Mayo Clinic will gain a digitally integrated
end-to-end supply chain platform with enterprise visibility and
agility." Organizations equally focused on supply chain execution
excellence, like Gunderson Health System, McLeod Health, Orlando
Regional Healthcare System and Medical
University of South Carolina, to name a few, are among
Tecsys' growing customer base focused on modernizing their
operations.
"Those who are familiar with Tecsys know how profoundly
committed we are to the healthcare market, and how important it is
to us that we are positive contributors to this next era in
healthcare supply chain," said Peter
Brereton, president and CEO of Tecsys. "But I want to stress
that this is not a new problem. The turning point for healthcare
supply chain was already underway, if not sluggishly; the pandemic
simply tightened the radius on that turn, forcing mid and late
adopters to catch up to a more economical and stable approach to
managing supplies within a complex logistics ecosystem."
Tecsys' healthy momentum in the healthcare market reflects the
growing need for intelligent supply chain management as regulatory
requirements and complexities intensify. The supply chain software
provider has earned a reputation in the healthcare arena for its
approach toward integrated management of healthcare supply chain
activities. In a recent white paper, A Holistic, Integrated
Approach to the Healthcare Supply Chain, Tecsys outlines its
methodology to achieve operational efficiency and hard dollar
savings by addressing this uniquely fragmented industry.
"We selected Tecsys to automate demand capture at over 200
inventory locations in order to unencumber staff from collecting
demand data at the inventory site while ensuring alignment with the
health system's forthcoming ERP needs," commented Matt
VonderHaar, director of Supply Chain Analytics, UC
Health.
"We're building a digital supply chain lattice that is far
greater than the sum of its parts […] Tecsys stitches together old
and new tech to build that end-to-end visibility," said Chris
Jellison, vice president, Pharmacy at Parkview Health.
Carmen Winfield, vice president
of Procurement Service for McLeod Health, said, "With Tecsys
across our clinical areas, our organization will have access to
more accurate usage data and analytics. This helps us be more
efficient and better positioned to make strategic supply chain
decisions that maintain our standards of excellence while
optimizing inventory availability and controlling costs."
"Supply chain at Spectrum Health has transformed from a tactical
expense center to a strategic business enabler and having leading
tools has been a major part of that transformation,"
added Sarai Vanderwood, director, Distribution & Inventory
at Spectrum Health.
The healthcare supply chain is unlike that in any other
industry. For most hospitals, the parties and processes required to
get a product from the manufacturer to the point of use are many
and varied, resulting in high costs and significant waste. Most
healthcare organizations are managing supplies using outdated
information technology systems that cannot communicate with one
another, and rely on manual keying across procurement, inventory,
transcription, and replenishment systems.
