Our MissionDLG’s vision is to be the trusted process management solution for hospitals to enhance their supply chain and value analysis process as they seek to deliver greater efficiencies in reducing supply costs.
|
About UsSince our inception, Data Leverage Group has been focused on developing a robust workflow system for supply chain and value analysis professional.
DLG exists because we believe that healthcare supply chain professionals need flexible solutions to meet their numerous and ever-changing operational workflows. Most software tool companies try to convince clients to adopt their traditional “out of the box” approach with little or no adaptability to the client’s operation. DLG thinks differently. We know that when clients are forced to compromise their needs in order to utilize any software tool, long term success is not possible. |
|
DLG takes the reverse approach...
We start by taking industry project and process management core best practices and then we adapt them to each client’s operation.
The result is a tailored solution that provides a solid foundation but can be continuously adapted and improved over time. We achieve this through the versatility of our open platform strategy.
The Challenge
Engaging supply chain and clinical value analysis to consistently utilize a workflow software tool is challenging. There are 2 primary reasons why users resist utilization:
Change
The perception is that no “new” software will be able to match up with my daily routine. Therefore, this ultimately means, “more work for me”. |
The integration challenge
Users already have multiple software tools that they are being asked to utilize in their daily work and adding one more tool that won’t integrate means “more work for me”. |
