FORT
WAYNE, Ind., June 27,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Tecsys, a leader in supply chain
management software, and Parkview Health, a prominent Indiana-based health system, have been jointly
recognized by Supply & Demand Chain Executive as winners
of this year's Top Supply Chain Projects Award for their
groundbreaking supply chain transformation project integrating
pharmaceuticals into the broader healthcare product supply chain
processes. The award profiles innovative case study-type projects
designed to automate, optimize, streamline and improve
the supply chain.
"From demand planning and forecasting to implementing the
ultimate in warehouse automation, the past 12 months has seen
companies within the supply chain and logistics space upgrade,
enhance, adopt and adapt in order to achieve greater efficiency
along the chain," says Marina Mayer,
editor-in-chief of Supply & Demand Chain Executive and
Food Logistics. "That's why it's important that
today's supply chains run on collaboration. […] It's these
partnerships that have enabled many supply chain organizations to
better manage inventory, reduce costs, retain employees, track data
and analytics and build resilience for whatever disruptions may lie
ahead."
The collaboration between Tecsys and Parkview Health has led to
end-to-end transparency into all supply purchases and inventory,
including medical/surgical supplies and pharmaceuticals. This has
enabled Parkview Health to drive down costs, increase efficiencies,
and capitalize on savings opportunities, while ensuring clinicians
have the products they need for patient care.
"We've built an end-to-end, automated digital supply chain
across the Parkview Health network, with Tecsys playing a crucial
role in that transformation," said Donna
Van Vlerah, senior vice president, support division,
Parkview Health. "We accept this award with an appreciation that by
collaborating with our technology partner, we have achieved
something innovative and highly effective in operating our supply
chain at scale and in the best interests of our
patients."
The synchronization between Parkview Health's pharmacy, and the
broader healthcare supply chain has yielded significant and ongoing
results. These include global visibility to drive informed decision
making, optimized inventory management, electronic procurement for
all drug purchases with accurate, up-to-date pricing, streamlined
processes for greater efficiency among pharmacy staff members, and
support of multiple class-of-trade price points.
"It's a privilege to join forces with healthcare leaders like
Parkview Health, who are ready to challenge the status quo to
achieve extraordinary results," adds Valerie Bandy, Pharm.D., MBA, senior director of
Pharmacy Solutions at Tecsys. "By partnering with Parkview Health,
we combined our leading-edge supply chain expertise with a highly
skilled team to set a new benchmark for the future of healthcare
supply chain."
This joint win is a testament to the successful partnership
between Tecsys and Parkview Health, and their shared commitment to
innovation and efficiency in supply chain processes. It serves as a
model for other health systems seeking to integrate pharmaceuticals
into their broader healthcare product supply chain
processes.
