SOLUTION
|
PAYOFF
|
Multiple purchasing processes, manual process for non-stock items, automated for items in inventory |

prone to errors |
PMX automates entire requisitioning process through one simple browser screen |
Reduce:
a) Maverick purchasing
b) Incorrect ordering c) Labor effort
|
| |
|
|
|
Purchasing system does not interface with ABC system, loosing patient charges |
$ Loss to Company, duplicate data entry,
time and resources |
Acct. codes are
assigned to purchase orders in PMX that
allows for tracking
items billable to
patients, Interface with ABC System allows employees to enter patient info. and reorder supplies in one step |
Company realizes lost revenues, reduces data entry, and improves efficiency |
| |
|
|
|
Maverick buying |
No contract compliance and not taking advantage of buying power |
PMX allows end-users
an easy way to requisition items which strengthens buying power and improves contract compliance |
Reduce maverick buying from 25% of total MRO purchases to 5% |
| |
|
|
|
Financial system does not integrate with the purchasing system |
Wasted time and resources on duplicate data entry and researching
phantom invoices |
Seamless interface between PMX and Financial system
allows critical
information to
be passed |
Reduce accounts payable labor (possible one position) |
| |
|
|
|
Limited reporting |
Lacking information needed for forecasting and important business decisions |
PMX comes configured with over 100 standard reports and a reporting wizard for custom reporting |
Better decision making, more control |
| |
|
|
|
Manual reordering |
Time and resources required to manually reorder products |
Materials management will incorporate reorder points, flags and automatically submits purchase orders to suppliers |
Reallocation of resources |
| |
|
|
|
Approval process
is slow |
Department/employee does not have the products needed to complete their jobs |
Approvers are automatically notified via email when an order request is awaiting their approval |
Approval time is reduced from days to minutes |
