Leveraging Scale and Innovative Tech to Drive Supply Chain Resilience 

Health systems are under increasing pressure to strengthen operational continuity, reduce variability, and expand clinical capacity amid rising costs and ongoing supply disruptions. This session explores how scale—amplified by data-driven, technology-enabled solutions—builds a more resilient and higher performing supply chain and healthcare technology management (HTM) ecosystem. Attendees will learn how AI and automation streamline sourcing, standardize workflows, and deliver immediate, measurable ROI. We’ll also examine the shift from transactional purchasing to strategic vendor management that maximizes buying power, reduces administrative burden, and enhances consistency across facilities, as well as practical methods for identifying and eliminating hidden cost variability in decentralized systems. By leveraging scale, data intelligence, and modern automation, health systems can transform their supply chain and HTM operations into a strategic advantage—driving resilience, improving financial performance, and unlocking clinical capacity where it matters most.
