AHRMM Webinar: From Counting to Orchestrating: How Connected Data and Automation Transform Healthcare Inventory Management

Date: Sep 16, 2026 - Sep 16, 2026

Time: 12pm CST - 1:00pm CST

OVERVIEW:

Healthcare supply chain teams are under more pressure than ever to reduce costs, eliminate waste, and ensure product availability without overstocking. But manual processes and disconnected systems often leave organizations reacting instead of orchestrating. This session explores how connected data, digital twins, and automated workflows are reshaping inventory management: from basic counting to fully coordinated, predictive operations.

Attendees will learn how a digital twin provides near real-time visibility across facilities, enabling precise forecasting and smarter replenishment decisions. We’ll break down how to integrate diverse data sources, including purchasing patterns, usage data and trading partner feeds to build an end-to-end operational strategy grounded in actual demand. Finally, we’ll examine how automation supports more reliable processes, reduces waste, and strengthens financial performance amid growing cost pressures.

Participants will leave equipped with real-world examples of streamlined inventory orchestration and practical steps to begin transforming their own supply chains.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

• Understand how a digital twin creates real-time visibility, enabling more precise forecasting and smarter replenishment decisions
• Learn how to apply data sources such as purchasing, supplier feeds and more to create an end-to-end operational strategy grounded in real-world demand
• Discover how automated workflows boost reliability, reduce waste, and support financial performance under increasing cost pressures.
