Project Management

Consultancy
Our daily job is to look at logistical processes within institutes in the health care sector and to give advice about these processes. Our years of international experience guarantee you will receive solid and practical advice.

It may be a simple and straightforward as stock profiling and standardisation - or a complex process reengineering matter encompassing the whole organisation - we have a track record and capability of delivering in accordance with your objectives. Unlike most consultants we are interested in helping you to make it happen - not walk away after presenting the report.

Our Methods
We study and analyze the processes undertaken across the facility to transport, distribute and manage the provision of goods and services. We focus on each step, from patient demand for all manner of goods and services to sourcing and supply before ultimate distribution back to the patient and determine the most effective and efficient methods of fulfilling demand at the right place and right time with the right product or service.

We then look at the layout of the Central Warehouse, Pharmacy, Central Sterilisation Department, Intensive Treatment areas (ICU, A&E, Cath Lab, Angio, Operating Theatres) as well as medical and surgical wards and specialist locations such as haemo-dialysis. We also take a good look at the flow of goods through and to these areas - for example from the Central Sterilisation department to the Operation Theatre - and at the infrastructure of the rest of the hospital.

Your Benefits
With our advice you can save a remarkable amount of space, time and therefore money. At the same time you will gain an increase in quality of care through using enhanced optimal capacity, standardisation of procedures and products, as well as a guarantee for better safety in the provision of medical and pharmaceutical goods to patients.

Project Management
If you have selected the implementation of a complete solution from Healthspace we are able to provide project management services that leave you with a turn-key outcome. After the needs and requirements of the various levels of the institution have been analysed and all the environmental factors have been assessed, we consult with the users and then construct a proposal of procedures and materials.

If an agreement is reached based on our analysis of the project, we can then begin the process of managing the project. We take responsibility of implementing the project and continue our role until the job is fully implemented and operational. This involves the facilitation of activities, stock and process discussions and implementation throughout the term of the project. We offer up-front full fee quotes for such activities, ensuring you know what the final cost will be before you commit.

Other Services
The project group, in close consultation with the users, can take care of the physical installation of the materials and determine the range and stock levels in the department. Depending on the agreement we fill the modules, racks and cabinets with these materials. If necessary, we will install and implement the logistical software and instruct the users. This ensures a smooth transfer of the whole project.

Look under Contact Us and make an appointment with one of our representatives. We look forward to being your partner in your materials management developments.
