"Eric O'Daffer is a Research Vice President in the Organizational Development and Healthcare, Life Sciences team. Eric advises client on the end-to value chain, starting at the point of care and looking back. He focuses most of his time with providers and how they best manage all the components of supply chain. This involves both their internal processes as well as best practices for partnering with their suppliers and service providers to optimize the clinical effectiveness of their products and the best delivered cost possible.
Increasingly, Eric's research focuses on the interdependency of providers with their supply partners. Manufacturers and distributors play a vital role as well in taking costs out of supply chain in healthcare and improving quality of care. Eric's main focus is helping pull all this together with and for companies with a broader view than simply cost."
