‘We wanted an external assessment of our current supply chain processes, including those sitting outside of our department, allowing us to redesign the internal supply chain prior to implementing an inventory management system. The recommendations made within the report have initiated useful conversations within the Trust about the level of clinical time being spent on supply chain activity and a roadmap of development has been created for the Logistics Team, to increase the scope of the service offering.
I have already recommended Jackie, having worked in the NHS she brings an in-depth knowledge and a real understanding of the challenges we face whilst using industry best practice to offer achievable solutions.’

‘Having inherited an out of date and broken supply chain service with poor storage and layout, overstocking with the risk of obsolescence with ordering and delivery issues and a clinical team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.’
