🌟 Exciting Progress in Procurement and Healthcare Transformation! 🌟 It's fantastic to see Lord Hunt's positive response towards embracing a value-based approach in procurement. This signifies a significant leap forward in understanding that the best value doesn't always come with the lowest price, particularly in healthcare. Having witnessed firsthand the impact of prioritising value over mere cost, I'm convinced of its importance. This mindset not only improves patient outcomes but also fuels innovation and sustainability within our healthcare system. National implementation of this value-based approach is crucial for ensuring uniformity and unlocking its full potential benefits. It offers suppliers a chance to showcase their value proposition, ultimately reshaping how healthcare is delivered. By placing emphasis on value, we anticipate a range of advantages, including enhanced patient care, heightened efficiency, and a more robust healthcare ecosystem. Furthermore, this shift encourages suppliers to innovate and customize their offerings to meet the distinct needs of healthcare providers and patients alike. What benefits do you anticipate from this approach, and what challenges do you believe we must address to ensure its success? Let me know your thoughts #HealthcareTransformation #ValueBasedProcurement #InnovationInHealthcare

What stops manufacturers adopting automation? 46% point to a lack of technical skills. What if you didn’t need them? 41% cite integration/data challenges. What if a company of specialists, with 30 years’ experience, had designed a range of sensor monitoring hardware and software that was simply ‘plug and play’? What if your remote monitoring hardware could be remotely configured by that company …. to your specifications … via our intuitive cloud … or even before it was delivered? What if that cloud offered customisable dashboards, so you could see your data just as you need it … set up for you and visible within moments of installation? Sounding good? What if all you had to do was get in touch? (Data: MakeUK October-23) #factoryautomation #processcontrol #IoTsolutions PowTechnology Digital Transformation Solutions

Smartcardia is improving Stroke care for patients across the UK & Ireland. Stroke Clinicians can now be alerted live in real-time when their patient is having an episode of AF. They can also view the Real-time ECG and see all 7 leads live (I, II, III, AVF, AVR, AVL, V1). Smartcardia patients do not have to wait for their monitors to be returned downloaded and analysed possibly several days after they had a significant episode of AF. 🔹 7-lead ECG Morphologies 🔹 Live Real-time view of remote patients' ECG 🔹 Live Real-time alerts and alarms for AF 🔹Patient posture, activity, and step counts tracking 🔹 Cloud-based analysis and viewing software accessible from any internet- connected device 🔹 Comprehensive vital signs monitoring, including SPO2, respiration, temperature, etc. Consider a scenario: 15 minutes after leaving the hospital with a traditional Holter monitor, a patient experiences a significant episode of AF, which continues for the next week. With traditional methods, you might not know about it for about 10 days. However, with Smartcardia, you can know about it as soon as it happens and even view it live. “𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝑻𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔, 𝑹𝒆𝒂𝒍-𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝑴𝒂𝒌𝒆𝒔 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒊𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆.” Contact now for a short demo.

🌍 Sustainability & Cost Efficiency: Long-Term Thinking Matters! 💡 In today’s world, investing in longevity and fit-for-purpose products is key to hitting both sustainability and cost targets. While cheaper, short-term solutions might seem appealing, they often lead to higher costs in the long run. 🚫 ✅ By choosing high-quality, durable products, you: • Reduce waste ♻️ • Lower replacement & maintenance costs 🔧 • Support a circular economy 🌱 Remember, short-term savings can lead to hidden costs, but investing for the long-term sets you up for success—financially and sustainably! 🌟

NHS Procurement and Sustainability: A Collaborative Journey As we vendors navigate the path towards the NHS Net Zero target by 2045, it’s clear that collaboration between NHS Supply Chain and suppliers is pivotal. The journey to sustainability is a collective effort, where education, informed decision-making, and behavioral change play crucial roles: ▪ Educating for Change 💡: Understanding the complexities of clinical pathways and the impact of product swaps is essential. It’s not just about switching from A to B; it’s about considering the entire lifecycle. This holistic approach ensures lasting benefits. ▪ Behavioral Shifts 🔄: The success of sustainable practices hinges on behavioral change - the drive must come from local leadership and practitioners who understand their community’s needs. ▪ Financial Considerations 💰: Financial payback is a common challenge. It’s about understanding the broader financial benefits and building a compelling business case.
