The next phase of Genesis focused on deploying full supply chain functionality in five waves towards modernization of processes and technologies to increase automation, drive innovation, and improve the supply/service ordering experience for caregivers.
- Deployment 1 went live on November 7 to D1 ministries in Eastern Washington and Montana including seven ambulatory clinics; enhancing supply/service ordering experience for ~1400 caregivers and total of 18 entities
- Deployment 2 went live on December 5 to D2 ministries in Oregon, Alaska and Washington (13 acute ministries + 26 ambulatory groups + 12 other (Shared Services, JV, Foundations); total of 51 entities.
- D2 go-live is the largest implementation of our waved supply chain deployment where it will enhance the supply/service ordering experience for ~3000 caregivers. This is a significant undertaking as the scope of this deployment is not only larger in size, but it overlaps with stabilization efforts from July core deployment and Deployment 1 from November.
