Hospital and medico-social logistics: Agence nationale de la performance sanitaire et médico-sociale (Anap) and France Supply Chain by Aslog sign partnership agreement

Written by webm@ster the July 2, 2024. Published in Press area.

Anap is keen to support the transition of hospital and medico-social logistics to Supply Chain, and to promote the use of technological solutions to make it more efficient. The aim of this partnership with the France Supply Chain association is to share expertise and carry out joint actions to make the Supply Chain a performance lever at the service of nursing time, and the quality and safety of patient care.

A partnership with a shared strategic vision of the supply chain

Anap, a public consultancy and expertise agency, is dedicated to helping healthcare and medico-social establishments improve their performance. It offers professionals a wide range of publications, tools and support in the field of logistics.

For many years, France Supply Chain by Aslog has supported the hospital sector through its work and actions, notably through its Commission Logistique Hospitalière (COLOGH).

The Supply Chain encompasses all the purchasing, inventory management and replenishment activities required for the provision of hospital services. It guarantees the quality, safety and efficiency of the logistics process, from supplier to patient .

Developing collaboration between supply chain players and the hospital and medical-social sector

This partnership was born of the strong desire of the two entities to federate their complementary skills and expertise. France Supply Chain by Aslog brings together 450 companies of all sizes (large corporations, ETIs, SMEs) and from all sectors of activity, as well as supply chain schools (France Supply Chain). Anap coordinates a network of logistics and purchasing experts from public and private healthcare and medico-social establishments.

On Wednesday May 22, 2024, the partnership was officially signed on the Anap stand at the SANTEXPO trade show. Logistics and purchasing experts and members of the Anap network thus become members of France Supply Chain, and can benefit from the resources, expertise and productions of its working groups.

Pooling skills for concrete action

To help logistics and purchasing professionals in health and medico-social establishments improve their skills, France Supply Chain has developed a Supply Chain Excellence Standard tailored to the healthcare sector, and has set up working groups to share knowledge.

Anap's experts will draw on these working groups to develop new products on the themes of automation/robotization, digitalization, sustainable supply chain, reduction of drudgery in logistics, decarbonization of transport, and so on.

Anap is also looking to strengthen its logistics intervention and field support capabilities by integrating France Supply Chain audits. These audits will be conducted jointly by experts from the Anap network and supply chain experts who are members of France Supply Chain.

A new partnership for new solutions: France Qualité and France Supply Chain join forces for your competitiveness

The partnership between France Qualité and France Supply Chain is a unique opportunity for companies to prepare for future challenges by combining their expertise. The complementary nature of the two associations will enable them to develop innovative solutions and boost competitiveness in the global marketplace. In an increasingly complex and uncertain environment, this initiative appears to be an appropriate response to current and future challenges. Let's take a look back at the main points discussed at the meeting, to understand the ins and outs of this promising partnership.

Securing transformations

Transformation is a major challenge for companies in an uncertain economic climate. Pierre GIRAULT, President of France Qualité, emphasized the importance of drawing lines of force to prepare for the future. Supply Chain and Quality teams play a strategic role, both upstream and downstream, in listening to stakeholders and implementing concrete guidelines. By pooling the strengths of our 2 associations, the aim is to consolidate synergies and continuously improve processes in the service of stakeholders, by integrating essential dimensions such as CSR.

This collaborative approach enables us to better anticipate regulatory changes, share best practices and develop innovative solutions to secure operations. In addition, it aims to strengthen the resilience of companies in the face of market disruptions, whether technological, economic or environmental. This strategic alliance is based on a shared vision of the future, and on the desire to make transformation a lever for sustainable competitiveness.

Renewing our Cost/Delivery/Quality approach

Yann de Feraudy, President of France Supply Chain, emphasized the need to reassess the trilogy of costs, lead times and quality from an integrated perspective. The Supply Chain must guarantee the right product, in the right place, at the right time, while respecting optimal quality and cost criteria. The methodological approach, whether derived from total quality or Supply Chain-specific practices, needs to be harmonized to maximize overall efficiency.

This partnership seeks to go beyond traditional boundaries and offer an enriched combination of the two disciplines. By integrating advanced management tools and innovative technologiesThe two associations aim to optimize every stage of the process, from sourcing to distribution. This new approach also makes it possible to better meet customer expectations and enhance their satisfaction. In addition, it offers companies the opportunity to gain in flexibility and agility, two essential qualities for adapting quickly to market changes. Ultimately, this collaboration aims to create a more robust and efficient value chain.
