SUPPLY CHAIN
I spent four years working for private healthcare organisations and seven years with the National Health Service in Britain ,” says Donovan .
Working in the healthcare sector is a different journey to others , he says , because it ’ s not always possible to measure the impact of your work .
“ You might have helped to procure a piece of equipment – like a robot that does radical prostatectomies , which makes it possible for patients to be released from the hospital the same day or the next . That is unbelievable given that with previous procedures , the length of patient stays was up to four weeks . From a procurement perspective , I learned so much about sourcing , stakeholder management and effective ways to manage contracting terms and conditions .” When thinking about P2P and S2P in healthcare procurement , Donovan advises to differentiate between clinical and nonclinical .
