As part of Loma Linda’s Integrated Financial Transformation (LLIFT) project, Loma Linda University Health will implement a cloud financial and supply chain (purchasing) service in early 2018.
Departments will be able to eliminate paper and do the following completely online:
- Browse an online catalog to order products,
- Submit requisitions online to create a purchase order (no more paper requisitions),
- Approve requisitions online (from either their computer or smart device),
- Use electronic dashboards to get status updates on the progress of an order.
During this transformation, both Loma Linda University Health’s financial and supply chain services will be transitioned to a shared services model. This will help to streamline business processes, bringing most Loma Linda entities into one single, unified technology platform, and deliver better customer service to internal clients.
For the first time in the organization’s history, financial transactions will be captured within one standard set of books. Real-time data, available through the LLIFT solution, will allow users to perform self-service inquiries into finance and supply chain transactions. For example, it will be possible to track how much of an item has been used, and initiate a reorder of that product in a timely manner. Clinical teams will have the products they need, when they need it, enabling them to optimize their par (inventory) levels.
