Can you imagine arriving at a Hospital and telling you that they cannot plan a surgery because there is disruption on the delivery of a product? I am sure you are thinking this is impossible. But we already talked of this possibility with the upcoming Medical Device Regulations (MDR 2017/745 & IVDR 2017/746) and the Manufacturer’s difficulties to comply with it.

Let’s ask then Stefan Krojer who was working at the Berlin Johanniter Hospital as responsible for procurement. He had to manage some difficult situations and provide his expertise and some solutions.

He decided to start a new initiative where he collaborates with a Startup to develop a platform that will connect Hospitals with medical device manufacturers or distributors to reduce the number of disruptions. Learn more about it in this episode.

Who is Stefan Krojer?

Stefan Krojer is an experienced hospital procurement and supply chain manager.

With his blog “Future Hospital-Procurement” he is looking for more transparency and dialogue between the partners in hospital procurement.

His specialty is digitization, innovation, and collaboration. His study “Future Hospital Purchasing 2025” has shown that the buyer of the future needs to standardize and digitize all his own data and processes. In order to activate the role as a game-changer, he must find new solutions with the help of external value creation partners and internally implement them successfully.

As a connoisseur of corporate goals, you not only buy products, but also new market and business opportunities.
