Purchased Services & Other Indirect Spend: Resiliency for Tomorrow’s Supply Chain

Supply chain professionals, during the course of the pandemic, uncovered and resolved a significant number of challenges. Supply chain resiliency jumped to the top of many organizations’ leadership priorities and put supply chain in the spotlight. While supply chain’s expertise is typically applied to medical and surgical spend, engagement with business leaders in managing indirect spend (including expenditures for non-supply goods and services) is lagging on the health care supply chain maturity curve. In this panel discussion, four providers will walk learners through common indirect spend risk considerations and prepare attendees to take steps to introduce resiliency within these spend categories, today.
 
Learning Objectives:

• List key differences in managing indirect spend vs. supply spend and the resiliency value each brings to the health care organization
• Consider key criteria, risk assessment and mitigation strategies for indirect spend
• Apply leading practices and case study examples, learned in this session, to achieve C-Suite support for strategic changes to purchased services sourcing and management
