My journey to Oracle Cloud and Healthcare
Healthcare Learning Curve
• Item Master / MFG Part Number / Vendor Part Number
• Big Item Master
• GPO / Contract Pricing
• Integration Dependencies, EDI, HL7
• High Velocity Transactional P2P Volume
• Stock / Non-Stock – Perpetual / Non-Perpetual
• Criticality
• JIT with main distributors
Oracle Cloud Learning from EBS
• No DBAs and Developers - Integrations
• No Java, PL/SQL – Web Services
• No VPN
• Patching / Maintenance
• 3rd Party for mobile
• Procurement and Supply Chain like EBS

SCM Healthcare Implementation
Challenges
Item Master Not Clean
• Previous system in place for 10+ years
• Item Master not clean needs TLC,
active / inactive, descriptions not
standardized
• MFG or Supplier Catalog Part Numbers
Incorrect
• Lack of Integrated Solutions – HCM vs
ERP, SCM / Procurement and Finance
on different systems
• Lack of documentation
• Mobile solution is based on outdated
technology or absent
• EDI on legacy hardware
• Integrations are difficult and costly
• Difficult for reporting and analysis
Outdated ERPs / Technology Too Much Paper!
• Paper for Inventory Tracking
Transactions
• Paper for Requisition Approval
• Paper for Capital Approvals
• Stickers for chargeable products

Feedback From SCM Cloud
Implementations
• Lessons learned
• More time from added workload
• Allocated resources to focus on implementation
• More testing
• Better understand how integrations work in Oracle cloud
• Better understand how Item Master and Blanket Purchase Agreements
• Better understanding the supplier master / supplier site structure
• Business Process Hurdles
• Didn’t understand some of the options in Cloud vs current system
• Moving toward electronic approvals was more challenging than expected
• Projects
• Key Functional Differences
• Approvals
• Data Conversions
• Understanding FBDI
• Crosswalks are critical
• PO Conversion

People Readiness
Process Readiness
 Existing processes are extremely manual and repetitive; therefore
little complication exists from a technical perspective.
 Cleanliness of Item master and Item number issues are known
and need to be addressed
 Perpetual inventories may require Physical Inventory as part of
conversion load.
 Tool to utilize for patient charging is TBD: EMR or Mobile
 The OR, nursing staff and staff managing floor stock will be
asked to make process changes in order to achieve
organization-wide efficiency related to patient
charging. This effort will require a dedicated information
sharing and training campaign.
 Change to perpetual Inventory for all warehouse areas will
require dedication to performing timely system transactions
 Core team is strongly supportive of this effort to increase
efficiencies and has clear ideas regarding opportunities to
increase process improvement.
 Nursing, OR, and floor staff are unaware of pending changes
and need to be engaged.
 The nursing organizations' processes aren't consistent in terms of patient
charging. Process adjustments and buy-in will be required to increase
efficiency; nursing leadership is open to change.
 The management of material flow must be reengineered and optimized across
the organization to reduce expediting charges, etc.
 Ensure new processes allow expense/revenue to impact appropriate dept (i.e.
OR) vs. hitting material operations
 Floor stock is managed outside of the supply chain organization; there is
opportunity to bring this process within material operations.

Going from status quo to leading practices
Change mindset from lift and shift to lift and optimize
Review business SCM processes and evaluate honestly where you are today and key objectives and goals for the
future.
Optimization can happen during your implementation journey but also plan for optimization after your
implementation.
Improve efficiency, leverage the Oracle Cloud Solution to the fullest!

Spend Optimization
No PO/No Pay
“No PO, No Pay” is now a widespread purchasing policy, requiring a Purchase Order (PO) for
all goods and services ordered from external suppliers.
Eliminate maverick spend, complete audit trail, compliance
Challenge for 100% PO Match – Pharmacy, Utilities, Credit Card, Reoccurring Expenses

Spend Optimization
• Leverage Req to PO to Receiving to AP process as much as possible
• Requisitions
• Punchout - Office Supplies, Amazon, Grainger
• Smart forms
• Configure BPAs for all items
• Public Shopping Lists
• Define approvals thresholds on requisitions, purchase orders, and invoice
• Communicate to vendor electronically
• CMK / EDI / Oracle Business Network to communicate
• Supplier Portal
• ATF Purchase Orders
• Opportunities for touchless purchasing
• Master Data Management
• Map UNSPSC to Categories to Natural Accounts
• Manage Items and Contracts with Blanket Purchase Agreements
• New 21C External Purchase Prices new functionality

Spend Optimization
Considerations
• Drive compliance and incremental baby steps to No PO / No Pay. Target a requester group or vendor where
there is a challenge and see how best to align it with req, to po, receipt to ap.
• Incremental steps go and increases in compliance can go a long way
• Integrations to help with auto-receiving and invoicing when necessary
• Reporting on spend and categorization
• Minimize risks
• Compliance
• Transition your procurement team from reactive to proactive

Inventory Cost Reduction
Reasons
• Inventory ties up cash
• Reduce physical clutter
• Streamline business processes
• Converting on-hand / inactive old items
Goals
• Leverage systems and automation
• Process Identify and process obsolete

Strategies to consider on Oracle Cloud
• Planning methodology, min-max, PAR, Kan-ban go from None/Reactive to Proactive!
• Move High Dollar Expense Areas to Perpetuals Cath, OR, and Lab – Mobile and EMR Integrations to
help facilitate ins and outs of these areas
• Review department spend records
• Identify consignment opportunities with Vendors
• Identify slow movers

Identify slow movers / obsolete products
• Can you use it elsewhere?
• Can you sell back to the supplier?
• Can you donate?

Distribution
Identify inefficiencies
Review call downs, frequency, timing, products and departments
Missed picks, frequency, timing, cases, products
Missing inventories
Does your distribution delivery model need to change?
Off-site warehouse
Central supply / general store
Internal Sourcing
Requesters
COVID impact – supplier allocations
Leverage pars and templates - shopping
