Outline
To achieve supply chain excellence, hospitals need to: • Establish and adhere to documented opera<ng standards; • Establish an organiza<onal structure with commi;ed
resources and clear roles and responsibili<es to support this informa<on;
• Establish specific performance metrics; and • Measure and access current performance against established
benchmarks. *Performance Measurement Phase II-‐ A framework for Ac<on
Supply Chain Excellence*
Making Supply Chain Strategic – Last stage ensure best value for the organiza<on
Shid focus from employees on transac<onal competence to strategic excellence.
• Under the sponsorship of OntarioBuys, the Hospital Supply Chain Working Group was established in November 2005 with the purpose of developing a vision and measurement framework to support improvements in supply chain capability across the Ontario Healthcare sector.
• A key part of this project was the iden<fica<on and development of a set of metrics which could be adopted consistently across the Province and used as a baseline for measuring performance.
• SUPPLY CHAIN VISION “Contribu)ng to the highest standard of pa)ent care through
comprehensive supply chain excellence”
Supply Chain Metrics Working Group
• 2006 – Phase I report-‐ set out key performance metrics standards and a framework 48 metrics & 21 standards
• January 2009 – Phase II report and user guide expand on core metrics to supply chain transac<onal efficiency -‐ 20 metrics and 12 standards – a sub set of first report
• November 2009 – Phase III readiness assessment • 2010 – Supply Chain Guidelines • 2011 – Broader Public Sector Procurement Direc<ves Copies of the reports and user guides are available through BPS Supply chain secretariat. • h;p://www.doingbusiness.mgs.gov.on.ca/mbs/psb/psb.nsf/A;achments/BPSBPerformanceMetrics-‐Report-‐

Performance Measurement Background
Performance Measurement Background
• Recommenda<ons from Working Group: – Most hospitals have not implemented metrics – The addi<on, dele<on and modifica<on of a number of metrics was recommended
– Need to consider conduc<ng peer to peer benchmarking to provide meaningful results
– Implemen<ng will be resource intensive if not impossible in some ins<tu<ons
Guiding Principles Relevance: Is the measure relevant to the organizaGons performance goals? Validity: Does the measure actually measure what it is suppose to? AKribuGon: Does it relate to factors that decision makers can affect? Clarity: Is it understandable? Accuracy: Does it provide correct informaGon in accordance with accepted standards? Comparability: Can the data be used to make comparisons (over Gme/similar acGviGes) Consistency: Does it relate to the same factors in all cases at all Gmes? Timeliness: Can data be collected & processed within a useful Gmeframe? Cost: Is its value greater than the data collecGon costs?
• Why keep score at a ball game?
• Why do engineers concern themselves with tolerances?
• Why do we manage an earning statement? • Why do we track supplier quality?
To Improve performance toward a goal
Why Measure?
How to implement: – Adopt metrics framework in principle-‐ execu<ve champion – Evaluate current state of your supply chain – Assess which metrics are in place today in your organiza<on – Assess which ones you would like to measure (can you measure)-‐manually/automated
– Create a baseline – Put measures in place, – Implement – Build upon moving to next level.
Metrics: how do we measure, track and report
• Goal Awareness (Why are we doing what we are doing?)
• Goal Alignment (Do I care? Intrinsic & personal)
• Role Defini<on (How do I contribute and add value?)
• Resource Availability (Do I have the tools? Physical & Intellectual?)
What it takes to get from have to, to want to:
Performance Measurement & Review
• Internal – Target seong – Measurement & repor<ng – Benchmarking
• External – Key rela<onships – Con<nuous improvement models – Benchmarking
A good measure is……….
– aligned to long term business objec<ves – has a long ‘shelf life’ (measures key areas of on-‐going day to day ac<vity) – monitors trends and provides data for benchmarking ‘value’ – cheap to collect / prepare / report – ra<onal / repeatable / consistent / reliable – not easily manipulated – easy to understand / interpret – makes it easy to determine what should be done next – encourages desirable behaviours / ac<vi<es – achievable
How do we idenGfy a “Good” measure? A measure is ...
“a basis for comparison; a reference point against which other things can be evaluated”
Performance Measurement
Target setting Performance measurement
Performance improvement
• With consistent measurement we will drive world class performance and con<nuously improve
Why?
• This performance informa<on is also essen<al in demonstraGng value
delivery to our customers
Performance Measurement
Directly affects bo;om line, e.g. reduced manpower, reduced specific cost elements
Indirectly affects bo;om line, e.g. <me savings, faster cycle <me, do it once for Global re-‐use

Performance Metrics Concepts
• It’s about opera<onal performance • Repor<ng leads to process improvement which leads to consistent
alignment with strategic vision of organiza<on • Integrate PM’s into management programs • Understand the associated risks…
– Organiza<onal iner<a – Funding availability – Data availability – Lack of skills necessary to implement process improvement
• Strong execu<ve sponsorship is cri<cal to resolve issues, some feel that Leadership should also be part of the balanced scorecard
Benefits of Metrics Utilizing performance metrics allows Sourcing to answer:
ü Are the end customer needs being met? ü Are all stakeholders satisfied? ü Are the purchases compliant? ü How effective is the contract? ü What is the spend relationship? (actual versus budget versus calculated) ü Are we on track and how are we trending? ü How capable is the supplier? ü What is the quality, delivery and responsiveness of the supplier? ü What benefits are being realized? (financial, process, relationship) ü What is the total cost of ownership? ü Should the contract be renewed? ü How are risks being managed? (safety, supply, security, financial) ü How does the supplier experience inform future Market Analyses? ü How does the end customer experience inform future Needs Assessments?
Seong Targets • Geong to a;ainable and realis<c is the most cri<cal component of measurement seong… … and the most difficult
• Begin with a collabora<ve and itera<ve process • By the end of the itera<ons you will have established: – Goal awareness and process understanding – Role defini<on and expecta<on clarity – Resource availability or limita<ons – Goal alignment
• First step is a challenge for many hospitals, exis<ng supply chains vary; measurement systems are inconsistent; some systems are more advanced than others.
• Ontario hospitals come in all shapes and sizes and therefore so do their supply chain goals.
• Measurement needs to be collected from data that is easily available, accurate, can be analyzed, applicable and <mely.
• Need a baseline • Most hospitals are data rich, informa<on poor. • Need to ensure we adopt the same metrics and standards so we
are comparable. • Suppliers use metrics all the <me to be more efficient and customer
focused.
Challenges:
Measurement Difficul<es • Tendency for purchasing to be assessed against monetary savings only – Some benefits provided by purchasing do not directly impact on the P&L
– Some benefits are not easily visible or quan<fiable
• Stakeholder reluctance to sign-‐off savings – Because this will mean a reduc<on in their budget / status
– Because the saving may be based on forecasted ac<vity rather than actuals
– Because of concerns about the baseline data
Examples of Metrics
• $ of savings achieved • % of spend on contract • % on-‐<me delivery • % complete orders • % payments as per terms • % of supplier evalua<ons completed on-‐<me • # of contract extensions invoked where no contract
extension existed in the RFX • # of returns • # of quality defects
• The balanced scorecard is a set of measures, dials and indicators that integrates mul<ple perspec<ves
• The balanced scorecard created by Robert Kaplan and David Norton, Harvard business school integrates four sets of measurement: – Financial Perspec<ve: How do we look to shareholders? – Internal Business Perspec<ve: What must we excel at? – Customer Perspec<ve: How do our customers see us? – Innova<on: Can we con<nue to improve and create value?
• Works as a management tool by seong out explicit outcomes to support the organiza<ons mission, vision and values
• Also provides a way to measure progress towards those outcomes • Given the complexi<es of the needs of the hospitals, the working group
created a six parameter scorecard addressing the structural founda<ons of organiza<ons and the importance of stakeholders
Balanced Scorecard
• Measurement must be: – Consistent – Reliable – Ac<onable – Credible
• Need to look at most important outcomes to improving supply chain performance over next three to five years (clinical and cost usually at the top, flexibility and social responsibility lowest)
Fundamental Drivers
Key Stakeholders
Balanced Scorecard • Scorecards are effec<ve in aligning an organiza<on's business areas
and ac<vi<es with its overall strategy, iden<fying cri<cal financial and non financial measures, iden<fying cause and effect rela<onships among measures and encourage accountability across the organiza<on
• Implementa<on of a balanced scorecard presents opportuni<es for a performing organiza<on to look at exis<ng programs, services, and processes. – Are the right services being performed?
• Are we doing the right things? – Are the processes effec<ve?
• Are we doing things right?
Balanced Scorecard-‐ Governance & Process
What must we excel at? • Purchasing produc<vity • Purchasing accuracy • Receipt accuracy • Inventory accuracy • Contract compliance • On / Off contract Purchase ra<o • Supply chain managed inventory • Supply chain managed spend ra<o • Quality – errors, defects, rework • Speed, cost, <me • Produc<vity
Balanced Scorecard -‐ Financial
How do we look to shareholders? – Days cash on hand – Days inventory on hand – Return on assets – Budget vs Actual budget results – Supply cost per_____ – Supply cost trend vs CPI – Total non labour cost
Balanced Scorecard-‐ Customers How do customers see us?
– Fill rate – Inventory: stock cycle <me – Inventory accuracy – Requisi<ons: Receipt cycle <me – Returns – Stock / Non Stock ra<o – Customer calls/ Complaints – Customer Sa<sfac<on Score
• Supply availability • Staff courtesy / helpfulness • Staff Responsiveness • Access to Informa<on
Balanced Scorecard -‐ People
Can we con<nue to improve and create value? • Innova<ons log • Employee sugges<ons • Employee reten<on • Employee capabili<es • Employee produc<vity • Con<nuing educa<on
– Formal educa<on – Cer<ficates – Conferences – Books
While scorecards must reflect the organiza<on, environment and strategic goals, a number of common principles guide their design.
• Report different measures for different audiences • Track staff poten<al, development and progress • Align with business unit priori<es • Iden<fy opportuni<es for realloca<ng resources • Link individual to func<onal and hospital performance • Measure performance in rela<ve terms • Focus beyond transac<onal measures to effec<veness and total
value crea<on
Scorecards
Scorecard Basics Cri<cal success factors for scorecards are: • Quickly and clearly indicates the current state of affairs/trends
• Metrics add value, are indicators and support business objec<ves
• Metrics calcula<ons are determined and outlined
• Targets are established and indicated
• Use of on track/off track indicators (ex., green, yellow, red)
• Period comparisons are used to provide more context (e.g., last quarter, current period vs. same period of previous year)

Meeting target for majority of hospitals and overall. WRH Engineering department went live in early November. WRH Pharmacy department booked to have full time purchasing specialist on site for two weeks in January to assist with “go live” -‐send our no PO reports weekly to Hospitals -‐meeting with hospitals individually to capture non PO items. 89.0% of invoices are paid within terms from enter date. Sites remove payments from cash requirement i.e. CHIS, Capital. Hospitals have been reminded to ensure that all invoices are sent directly to PROcure. Concerns still to address: invoices are still not addressed here; sites are not forwarding invoices to PROcure. Invoices that PROcure has on site but cannot be processed Due to goods not received by Hospitals. This has improved for two hospitals and trending negatively for three. We are addressing with Hospitals on individual basis. Accruals are caught up. -‐Scott and Bob will address with individual sites as to why there are increases. *Previous month % in brackets

1 Accountability Framework The expense rules must include an accountability framework to ensure that there is appropriate governance, and that everyone understands the authority for approvals.
2 Posting The expense rules must be posted on the organization’s website, so they are available to the public. The rules must be available in accessible formats.
3 Alcohol The expense rules must provide direction on the circumstances in which alcohol can be claimed and reimbursed. The rules should be very specific as to the process for obtaining approval for the use of alcohol, and for approving a claim for reimbursement.
4 Hospitality This means that hospitality may never be offered solely for the benefit of anyone covered by this directive, or by the OPS Travel, Meal and Hospitality Expenses Directive. Examples would be: office social events, retirement parties and holiday lunches.
5 Documentation The expense rules must require that good record-keeping practices be maintained for verification and audit purposes.
6 Consultants and Other Contractors The expense rules must provide direction on the circumstances in which a consultant or contractor can claim and be reimbursed for expenses. The rules should set out what is an allowable expense. In no circumstances can hospitality, incidental or food expenses be considered allowable expenses for consultants and contractors under the rules or in any contract between an organization and a consultant or contractor.
7 Individuals Making Claims Claimants must be required in the expense rules to:- obtain all appropriate approvals before incurring expenses; - submit original, itemized receipts with all claims;- submit claims within the timeframe specified by the organization’s rules;- if the information above is not available or is not possible, submit a written explanation - repay any overpayments – it is considered a debt owing to the organization;- if leaving employment with an organization, submit any claims for expenses before leaving the organization.
8 Individuals Approving Claims Approvers must be prohibited in the expense rules from approving their own expenses, and the rules must note that expenses for a group can only be claimed by the most senior person present – expenses cannot be claimed by an individual that are incurred by his/her approver (e.g., an executive who reports to the CEO cannot submit a claim that includes the cost of the CEO’s lunch even if they were at the same event, with the result that the CEO would thereby approve his/her own expenses).
