Business/System Optimization

Improve your business processes and get your ERP/IT Systems firing on all cylinders with a Tune-Up from GlobalStar. Are you fully optimizing your current systems? If not, we can help! Areas GlobalStar can increase optimization:

Supply Chain Management

• Requisition Control—Force location/person on requested items so only approved items can be requisitioned. (RQ, RSS, IC)
• Shopping List—List supply locations in sequence to skip hand-held PAR processing. (RSS, IC) Preference Card Pick List—Use Shopping List as preference cards… could even ‘pick’ entire equipment trays. (RSS, IC)
• Lab/Specialty Dept. Restocking-Use Shopping List so non-Inventoried items can still create a PO for simple reordering. (RSS, IC, PO) Validate Patient Prices—A simple calculation within Patient Charge can assist charges to patients for supply and implantable items. Find cost changes and lost revenue comparing Patient Prices to Billing Master. (PC, IC, PO)
• Consignment Inventory Management—Inventory Control provides better management and control over expensive inventory liabilities. (IC)
• Surgery Systems Interfaces—Provide Item Master and Costing data to Surgery Systems to keep costs current and eliminate duplicate data entry. (IC527, IC, HL7, CloverLeaf or similar)

• Better Contract Pricing/Discounts—Reduce duplications and errors to maximize buying power. (AP, IC, MA, PO)
• Faster Matching—Change display to Vendor Item Number/ Item Detail if missing PO Line/Item Number . Use Create Detail when matching if delays in locating PO Lines or entering Invoice quantities. (AP, MA)

• Absence Management—Not just a replacement for Time Accrual. Manage FMLA and other Leaves. Eliminate manual processes. Better manage cycle processes. (LP)
• Position Detail—Establish Position Detail information that permits defaulting of primary position information to the employee and multiple position accounting data defaulted to positions (PA)

• All Suites—Prevent cost overruns, uncontrolled spending using Approval Levels. (WF)
• Data Archival—Archive Production Product Line data while retaining Inquire and Report access to the archived data.
• BSI Upgrade—Mandatory upgrade to v 9.0 (Decommission 08/31/11). Impacts both environment and application.

• Automate manual workarounds and integrate separate databases.
• Interface your surgery system directly to Inventory Control.
• Clean up your Item Master and show you how to keep it clean.
• Resolve off-site workforce challenges using Web Time Entry.
• Maintain employee privacy for reimbursing travel expenses via Payroll, not AP.
• Get you bigger vendor discounts with Invoice Matching.
• Manage Union dues/contributions, automate rate changes using Benefits Administration.
• Eliminate employees defaulting into 2 plans using Absence Management.
• Implement unused or underused modules which you already own, pay maintenance.
