Health and Aged Care

Helping Health And Aged Care Organisations To Deliver Sustainable Savings

Cost Reduction Projects

Our team has delivered significant wide-ranging cost reduction projects for many Hospitals and Aged Care facilities. Our difference is how we engage with Clinicians and talk their language, leading to excellent engagements.

We complete full assessments of a hospital or aged care facilities’ spend profile and identify the cost reduction opportunities. We do this because we have engaged the market many times for clients, and therefore know the supply market in detail. We have developed automated tools that quickly and accurately categorise the huge hospital spend data sets to a very granular level. We then develop the implementation plan to realise the cost reduction opportunities.

We find the best outcome for clients is when we lead the cost reduction program, and at the same time mentor the hospital’s in-house procurement team, so they can then manage the less strategic projects, and manage the supplier contracts that are put in place.

The outcome of these cost reduction programs is a step change in the quality of supply and services contracts, and significant cost reduction hitting the bottom-line. We partner with clients to deliver these outcomes.

Automated Spend Analytics

We utilise automation to categorise spend data at a granular level in a very short period of time. What takes a human months, our tools can do in a matter of days. This allows our team to focus on utilising our extensive knowledge and experience to derive and deliver savings opportunities from the analysis, rather than spending all of our time manually categorising data.

Category Initiatives

We deliver individual category initiatives for our clients, which may be a large complex sourcing activity where the hospital does not have the in-house capacity or expertise. We have experts in their field who source the same medical goods and services many times in a year. Clients are able to leverage this knowledge for these complex projects and deliver great outcomes for the hospital.

The return on investment for out projects is typically in excess of 7:1, which ticks many boxes for our Clients’ financial teams.
