Confidence in supplier management for C-Suite professionals in healthcare

ARCUS® Supplier Management Software, hosted in the cloud by Trade Interchange, has been proven to work in the healthcare sector, and delivers supply base confidence for the companies such as Barchester Healthcare, Elysium Healthcare and Ramsay Healthcare through a streamlined solution.

Protect Company Brand

Protect company brand and reputation by assessing suppliers’ financial risk and capabilities. ARCUS® Connect, our native API, allows integration with other solutions, ensuring all information can be automatically shared across systems – eliminating the need to re-key data. Data can be transferred in both directions between your current internal and external systems and ARCUS®. Examples of integrations include NAVEX Global and ERP systems including SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics.

Auditable Information

All information within the system is auditable, allowing users to confidently demonstrate to internal and external stakeholders, such as auditors, the steps that have been taken when carrying out comprehensive checks on suppliers. This includes any corrective actions that have been taken to mitigate the associated risks.

Information Security

Our ISO 27001-accredited Information Security Management System ensures that all elements relating to Data Security, Availability and Integrity are covered, especially in relation to our customers’ data and the services we provide.

The system is audited by SGS, a UKAS-accredited auditor. We have held the ISO 27001 accreditation since 2013. The scope of our ISO 27001-compliant Information Security Management System includes our Agile development methodologies. This includes version control, testing, risk assessments and peer review in line with strict coding standards. Trade Interchange and our hosting partner both operate within the GDPR framework, and the ARCUS® platform is GDPR compliant.

Automation and Artificial Intelligence

Reminders can be set against every document uploaded, meaning site-specific expiry dates for certifications will automatically be requested, in addition to company-level information. This ensures that each company and approved site remains compliant and that the relevant departments can take action to manage and maintain information efficiently.

Electronically map your approval process to match best practice or internal purchasing processes with configurable alerts and emails notifying of key terms, milestones, critical task dates and events. Bi-directional and auto-escalation workflows can be configured to reduce the time spent waiting for approvals and to highlight bottlenecks in the system.

Using artificial intelligence, ARCUS® can scan documentation required by the organisation operating in the healthcare sector, as it is uploaded by suppliers, verifying that the right certificate has been submitted and that the dates and values are valid.

Ensure compliance

Ensure supplier compliance with company policies and government legislation, including modern slavery, sustainability, health and safety, anti-bribery and allergens while proving due diligence throughout the supply chain. Information can be collected at a company, site and product level.

Scalable solution

The ARCUS® platform includes eight individual modules that can be implemented standalone, in any combination or in any order that can be categorised into three separate families; ARCUS® Supply, ARCUS® Product and ARCUS® Source.
