Enterprise Resource Planning


McKesson’s integrated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution offers core ERP applications for cost-effective supply chain management, stringent financial control and streamlined workforce management. But unlike other vendors, McKesson integrates additional mission-critical areas, through health care-specific scheduling, OR management and performance management applications.

The combined offering streamlines the entire supply chain management continuum, integrating process and information flow between key areas and throughout the enterprise. This gives you the comprehensive view you need to make resource decisions that align clinical requirements with financial outcomes.

Our tested, best-in-class ERP applications offer award-winning function, value and support. Pathways Materials Management™ and Pathways Financial Management™ have been rated Best in KLAS in the Financial/ERP category for the past seven years*. And, Horizon Human Resource Management was also rated Best in KLAS in the Financial/ERP category in 2008 and 2009.

Combining McKesson’s ERP solution with our scheduling and surgical services applications optimizes patient safety and outcomes. This event-driven supply chain approach ensures the right supplies and resources are ordered/reserved when the clinician schedules the patient event, reducing case delays and cancellations.

Our ERP solution drives sound decision-making through real-time access to key business performance metrics. Decision-support tools, such as scorecards on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), help executives identify and address issues, and gain the business intelligence needed for strategic planning and ongoing process improvements.
