He has created supply chain interfaces that drive high compliance with supply chain initiatives by putting quality, efficacy and safety at the forefront of decision-making, resulting in significant cost savings and cost avoidance for the organization. Under his leadership, ScionHealth has achieved 95th-percentile compliance with group purchasing organization contracting initiatives. Mr. Poullard led the implementation of an indirect category procurement team that captured savings in categories of vendor spend that had previously gone unaddressed, and the organization has seen a year-over-year decline in medical supply and pharmaceutical expenses under his direction.
