Supply Chain Management

The cost of medical and surgical supplies may comprise as much as 40 percent of an operating room's expenses. An inaccurate inventory management system can have a significant impact on the amount of money that is tied up in inventory sitting on shelves. The cost of supply product receiving, movement, storage and disposal can reach up to 50% of the purchase price.

Our materials management consultants know what it takes for supply functions to operate efficiently in support of the patient care team. Soyring Consulting's comprehensive project approach identifies specific organizational plans to meet current challenges and identify long-term strategies. We are committed to providing customized, cost effective services and sustainable results to assist your Materials Management.

Back

The staff that Soyring brings to the facility was essentially members of our hospital family. We treated them like management staff here at the hospital. They participated in other meetings besides just focusing on the projects. They had vision of the broader goals and strategic objectives of the hospital and were instrumental with the comments that I thought were beneficial to carrying out the hospital’s mission overall and not just for the project that we hired them for.
