The information in the VA SCMA repository can be shared as part of the VA Market Research, Phase II (some exceptions may apply). Industry support is required to assure VA is conducting quality market research to collect information from the industry partners with expertise in SC Management and to collect proven best practices, lessons learned, and various programmatic methodologies that can be applied to inform the VA Comprehensive SCM Strategy (quality data based business practices and targeted recommendations based on VA mission areas) along with path forward to assess the information received from industry.Discussion Topics:Part 5 will focus on Med/Surg, Facility Management, and Healthcare Technology Management (HTM) Integration.The goals of this discussion will be to allow leadership from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to share their strategy and vision for Supply Chain Modernization.Industry will have a chance to listen and pose questions to Acquisition, Supply Chain and Program Offices in the Q&A section of the webinar through the Moderator, Joe Grace, President and CEO of Grace and Associates.Questions will be answered during the event and after the event and responses will be posted on SAM.GOV.
