‘We sought Jackie’s help to provide support to the Supply Chain Transformation programme and to provide technical expertise and knowledge within the Project Team. Inventory Management systems and process are relatively new to the NHS and it was invaluable to have someone on the project who had already been through such a transformation – using that experience to advise and to challenge the team to ensure the best outcomes for OUH and our patients.

With her depth of supply chain knowledge, Jackie has made numerous insightful observations and recommendations that have changed our current working practices to enable us to work towards best practice. She has provided training and guidance to the Supply Chain Team and promoted and encouraged continuous improvement and learning as an ethos.’

‘Having inherited an out of date and broken supply chain service with poor storage and layout, overstocking with the risk of obsolescence with ordering and delivery issues and a clinical team having to work from day to day in terms of planning , we had to get something done. We had to address all of this in addition to the cultural issues that affect both the theatre and supply chain teams and prevent them from co-operating and working together.

We commissioned Jackie to carry out a service review. She delivered a clear and informative report with recommendations, which got to the heart of the cultural issues, described the difficulties that are experienced across the service by both the clinical and supply chain teams and offered solutions. I would recommend Jackie because she provides a personal and tailored service with exceptional attention to detail and a depth of understanding drawn from hands on practical experience that shines through in all her work.’
