Isn’t About Time You Re-Think, Re-New And Re-Invent Your Value Analysis Model To Do The Hard Work That Is Required In The 21st Century!
It’s been 21 years since traditional Value Analysis emerged as a best practice in healthcare. This stratagem has led the way to some of the most important breakthroughs in supply chain cost management in the last decade. Nevertheless, if you are really honest with yourself, it isn’t getting the job done in the 21st century.
In years past, just putting together a value analysis committee or team(s) assured you of generating a variety of savings (mostly GPO savings) that just happen unimpeded and unrestricted. I hope you have realized by now that the time has passed when you can make these easy and effortless savings continue to flow, surge and gush without changing how your value analysis committee or team(s) is organized, structured, selected, trained, measured, motivated and controlled.
In fact, to continue to make big savings happen for your healthcare organization you will need to optimize your supply value analysis process if you are serious about meeting the challenges you will be facing in the 21st century.
Can You Think of Anything That You Were Doing 21 Years Ago that Has Not Been Upgraded, Automated, Refined or Advanced?
Can you think of anything that you were doing related to supply chain management 21 years ago that hasn’t been upgraded, automated, refined, or advanced to the next level of performance? With few exceptions, I think that the answer would give is NOTHING! Then why are you still employing the same value analysis model you have been utilizing for 6, 12 or even 21 years?
Isn’t it about time you re-think, re-new and re-invent what you are doing related to value analysis to move your committees or team(s) to the next level of performance too? By doing so, you will consistently grow your profits, cut cost, improve quality, eliminate all defects, waste and variations, etc. in your supply chain. This is what Value Analysis 2.0 is all about; deploying the new next generation value analysis model to “wing the towel dry” on your supply chain savings.
“We have identified (and implemented) over $1 million in savings the last 2 years. Beyond that, there is value in the (Value Analysis 2.0) process and the commitment it creates among organization leaders and staff. It also brings the importance of every purchase to “top of mind awareness.”
Jay Johnson, Vice President, Stillwater Medical Center, Stillwater, Oklahoma
What’s Different About LEAN Value Analysis?
What’s different about LEAN Value Analysis, and is missing in value analysis 1.0, is a framework of discipline, new rules and a defined six-step system for your value teams to religiously follow that can be measure, monitored and controlled to identify, implement and sustain your supply savings – over the long term.
Wouldn’t you agree it’s time for all supply chain professionals to realize that if you are to attack your hard to get at savings -- but robust savings opportunities in the future -- you will need new strategies, tactics, techniques and systems that they you won’t find in traditional value analysis models that are now tired, worn-out and obsolete in the 21st century.

Why Do We Need New Rules, Systems & Models For New Long-Lasting Savings Performance?
Most healthcare organizations are “hitting the wall” on their supply chain savings because their value analysis committees and teams have been too informal, unstructured and free form to get the job done. To move to the next level of savings performance your value analysis committee or team(s) will need to have new rules, systems and operational models to generate new and long- lasting performance.
For example, your teams need to be heterogeneous (think and act differently) vs. homogenous (think and act alike) in design to create what we call “Creative Friction” if you are looking for new and better savings outcomes and quality results. Otherwise, your committee or team members will continue to be resistant to change, fight new savings ideas and hold on to their old ways of doing things.
“The LEAN Value Analysis System created supply chain awareness throughout our hospital and got people to start taking about other ways to save money. In fact, we are now under budget in our supplies expenses for the first time in years, which might not be a coincidence. I would say that the system was well worth our investment for the awareness it brought to our hospital."
Bill Baecker, CFO, Clinton Memorial Hospital, Wilmington, Ohio
