The healthcare industry is continuously evolving, with a focus on improving patient care, enhancing operational efficiency, and optimizing space utilization. Southwest Solutions Group (SSG) plays a key role in driving these advancements, particularly through our strategic partnership with Vizient.
The Vizient contract is part of the nation's largest healthcare services company, offering tailored solutions to help healthcare providers improve both quality and cost-effectiveness. By leveraging Vizient's extensive data intelligence, healthcare organizations can optimize their supply chain, reduce costs, and enhance patient care. With solutions for clinical, supply chain, and pharmacy leaders, Vizient helps facilities streamline operations, improve clinical outcomes, and maintain sustainable costs. The contract ensures that hospitals and clinics can access high-quality medical equipment and services, supporting better care and operational efficiency.
From automated storage systems to advanced pharmacy solutions, SSG offers a comprehensive range of products tailored to the specific needs of healthcare facilities.
In this blog, we will explore SSG's diverse healthcare offerings available through the Vizient contract and discuss how these products help facilities boost efficiency, save space, and improve patient care.
We'll also highlight the benefits of partnering with Vizient, which simplifies the procurement process and ensures competitive pricing. By the end, healthcare administrators and facility managers will see why SSG is their trusted partner for optimizing healthcare environments.
Effective storage and inventory management are critical in healthcare, where space is often at a premium. SSG’s innovative storage solutions, available through Vizient, provide substantial improvements in space utilization and operational efficiency.
Our automated storage systems, such as our vertical and horizontal carousels, maximize floor and vertical space and streamline retrieval processes. They can store large quantities of items, such as various medical supplies.
SSG integrates Lean principles into our healthcare solutions to reduce waste, streamline processes, and enhance efficiency. One standout example is our work with sterile processing departments (SPDs). Traditional methods of managing surgical instruments can be labor-intensive and error-prone. SSG's automated systems, such as light-directed picking systems, help ensure that the correct instruments are selected quickly and accurately, reducing surgery time and improving patient outcomes.
We also offer RFID tracking systems for surgical instruments and medical supplies, providing real-time inventory management. This technology reduces the risks of stockouts and overstocking, ensuring that critical supplies are always available when needed. By incorporating these systems, healthcare facilities can maintain optimal control over inventory, minimize waste, and ensure efficient resource use.
SSG offers design support using our own Revit plug-in, Fetch, to help healthcare providers visualize their spaces before construction. Fetch allows architects, medical planners, and facility managers to create detailed virtual models of healthcare environments, ensuring that the final setup meets all workflow and patient care needs.
Our Revit-based designs provide stakeholders with a clear understanding of how equipment and space will work together. Whether for new construction or renovation projects, this visualization helps eliminate costly design changes later and ensures facilities are optimized for staff and patient needs from day one.
SSG also collaborates closely with healthcare providers to tailor design solutions to meet specific challenges. By working with facility managers, architects, and healthcare professionals, we ensure that every aspect of the design supports the overall goals of the organization.
The Vizient contract offers significant advantages for healthcare facilities, providing access to SSG’s extensive range of products at competitive prices. As a Vizient member, healthcare providers can streamline the procurement process, gain access to transparent pricing, and make informed purchasing decisions.
Moreover, SSG is committed to sustainability. Many of our products, available through Vizient, are designed to minimize environmental impact by reducing energy consumption.
