    Author: Kilgore CA, Muller M.
    Journal: Hosp Mater Manage Q; 1996 Feb; 18(3):50-61. PubMed ID: 10165239.
    Abstract:
    By reengineering their department's core processes, materiel managers can expand their role in the health care setting while realizing significant cost savings. Using a team model, Inova Health System materiel management staff integrated their processes for vendor selection, purchasing, inventory reduction, and utilization across three hospitals and ancillary services. An integrated approach at all levels of the organization gained buy-in from administrators and staff systemwide.
