Is your supply chain ready for climate change-driven disruptions?
Healthcare Organizations now have access to real-time disruption signals from NOAA, NASA, USGS, and openFDA. But data alone isn’t enough.
This guide shows how to fuse those feeds with clinical context—mapping SKUs to CPT codes, automating substitutions, and protecting procedures before impact hits.
Explore the framework that’s helping hospitals gain a 72-hour lead time on disruption.
Note: BlueBin’s mission is to transform healthcare by enhancing the supply chain process, ensuring that patient care staff have the right supplies at the right time and maximizing efficiency. In line with this mission, BlueBin advocates for and supports the AHRMM Keys for Supply Chain Excellence. By focusing on improving inventory management, optimizing supply chain processes, and minimizing waste, we aim to reduce costs, accelerate operational efficiency, and enhance clinical outcomes throughout the continuum of care. The AHRMM Keys for Supply Chain Excellence serve as key performance indicators (KPIs), establishing essential standards for supply chain management in the healthcare field. Learn more about the AHRMM Keys.
Guide summary: This groundbreaking guide equips healthcare leaders to move beyond reactive planning by operationalizing real-time climate and disruption intelligence—embedding resilience into daily workflows, safeguarding patients and staff, and turning environmental risk into a strategic advantage for hospitals.
Did you know? BlueBin makes the guide actionable by equipping hospitals with vendor-neutral assessments, real-time risk dashboards, and a 12-month roadmap that embeds climate-driven resilience into daily supply chain operations with measurable ROI.
