About The Customer
The customer is a national manager of distinctive Independent, Assisted Living and Memory Care communities across the United States. They are driven by integrity, a passion for delivering superior service and financial returns. Established in 2017, they currently manage more than 100 retirement communities across 28 states. To accommodate the company’s rapid growth, the organization implemented Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations (D365FO) on an accelerated timeline to rapidly establish a business management platform.
The Challenge
The customer, a rapidly growing national manager of distinctive independent, assisted living and memory care communities throughout the USA, was relying on the standard security roles delivered with the application ‘out of the box’ which inherently contained critical and high-risk segregation of duties (SoD) conflicts. Due to the amount of revenue under management for a large public real estate investment trust (REIT), they soon needed to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) and external audit requirements, including controls over security access in D365FO. They needed to quickly find a solution that would integrate well within their D365FO environment and provide detailed audit reporting, SoD visibility, and scalable task-based roles for future growth.
The Solution
The customer acquired Fastpath Assure® and asked for implementation partners that could support them and solve their problem within the timeframe allotted. They reached out to Protiviti, a global consulting and internal audit firm, to assist with the Fastpath implementation, the security redesign build process, and establishment of governance processes to protect their new security architecture. A SoD risk framework had to be established and configured within the Fastpath software. The framework provided the rules for how the new roles can be built. Once the ruleset was configured within Fastpath Assure, the team used the solution to help build security roles that aligned and complied with the SoD framework, designed processes for managing their new risk framework, and implemented the new roles throughout the organization.

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.
