Healthcare supply chain management cloud transformation opportunities

Healthcare supply chain management cloud transformation opportunities

Healthcare supply chain management is one of the most complex roles in today’s economy and involves many moving parts to keep our health system running efficiently.

In a typical day, a healthcare supply chain employee is primarily responsible to make sure there are enough supplies to keep up with the demand from hospital facilities. COVID-19 has made this task more important than ever.

Healthcare supply chain workers find it’s important to have efficient, streamlined processes in place to replenish products quickly to prevent potential negative impacts to patient care. It’s also vital to maintain an accurate level of inventory across all locations to avoid overstocking and understocking specific products. Additionally, in-house systems require maintenance to keep all the mainframe systems and interfaces in sync and up to date. Any technical setbacks can lead to a terrible experience for a patient awaiting care or a scheduled procedure (such as getting a hip replacement, for example). 

Healthcare supply chain management in the cloud

Workday has developed a supply chain management solution specifically designed to support and transform the healthcare industry. This new cloud-based solution serves to make healthcare organizations run more efficiently — a very beneficial tool in times of unforeseen obstacles.

Alight continues making investments to ensure we are positioned as top Workday partner, helping organizations face the many changes due to increased complexity from the global pandemic.

What to look for in your cloud transformation partner
