​​COURSE SUMMARY: Procurement isn't just about supplies—it's a powerful driver of profitability when managed strategically. In the final session of our 3-part “Optimizing Procurement” series, we’ll discuss how to measure the financial performance of your procurement efforts, manage your process, and bolster partnerships with existing vendors to uncover profit and savings opportunities hidden in your purchasing data. Whether you're a single-location practice or part of a growing group, learn how to evaluate supplier spend, identify partnership opportunities with manufacturers and distributors, and use your data to measure the procurement success. Discover how data can lead to better decisions, stronger vendor relationships, and a healthier bottom line.
​
​LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
-
Analyze procurement data to identify patterns in spending across manufacturers and product categories.
-
Measure financial performance by consistently tracking your supply overhead and managing team purchasing behavior alignment.
-
Uncover savings opportunities by implementing a meeting cadence with key vendor partners to evaluate new products, supplier relationships, terms, and partnership opportunities.
-
Leverage purchasing data to evaluate the profit dynamics of more favorable terms and explore product movement with manufacturers and distributors.
-
Develop a data-driven procurement strategy that improves cost efficiency, supports scalability, and contributes directly to bottom-line growth.
