This book was released on 1990 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the medical material acquisition process and recommends ways to streamline it. We use requirements identification as our entry into the acquisition process and the management of those requirements to guide us through it. In doing, so we deal with important organizational responsibilities. Our discussions of combat and material development roles, missions, management effectiveness, and other sensitive issues will likely spark some defensiveness and challenge by participants in the acquisition process. Nevertheless, since the establishment of requirements begins the acquisition process, improved management of the requirements should benefit the entire process.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army Medical Department (AMEDD) can improve acquisition management by effectively integrating the efforts of the organizations participating in the process. One step in that direction is to establish a Deputy Surgeon General for Acquisition DSG(A) to provide the central direction, control, and decision authority. That step is only the first; the current AMEDD organizational structure must also be changed. The changes should clarify and improve relationships between acquisition process participants - the DSG(A), user combat developer, materiel developer, and logistician. Our analysis of relationships reveals a role for the medical research community, and we include that role in the acquisition process. We acknowledge its participation by modifying our initial recommendation for a DSG(A) to a recommendations that the AMEDD establish a Deputy Surgeon General for Research and Acquisition DSG(R & A). Successful acquisition projects display certain characteristics. Correctly realigning roles and responsibilities and restructuring relationships can produce organizations that demonstrate those characteristics. Such organizations have small, well-trained, and experienced staffs that communicate effectively; execute a stable program committed to the requirements; report value adding information; operate in short, clear command channels; and focus on improving system development efforts through more R & D involvement in nondevelopmental item acquisition strategies.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The medical industry continuously produces new and improved materiel for the delivery of health care. It continually evaluates clinicians' needs and treatment trends and moves rapidly to meet the demand for new products. The industry uses all available means - basic research, updating old items, combining old and new products and procedures in creative ways to define new products, and developing based on new technologies - to fill identified needs. Gaining a competitive advantage and the quest for profits drive a vigorous industry response. The Army Medical Department's (AMEDD) acquisition process is challenged to match the industry response to clinicians' needs and go even further. Materiel the AMEDD acquires must be affordable, reliable, transportable, maintainable, and credible over a range of environments. The medical acquisition process must meet this more robust challenge to be successful. In an earlier study, two critical first steps for doing so: First, centralize the process under a Deputy Surgeon General for Acquisition, DSG(A) and, second, improve requirements through better coordination of existing methods for identifying requirements. But these steps alone are not enough. The acquisition process needs to capitalize on a preference for nondevelopmental items (NDIs), i.e., those medical industry products that meet both clinical and nonclinical requirements. The AMEDD also needs to integrate the technological expertise found in its research activities into the NDI acquisition process. (TTL).

Download or read book Medical Materiel Acquisition Management Handbook written by and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook has been prepared for Army Medical Department personnel involved in all aspects of materials acquisition. It describes the Medical Materiel Life Cycle System Management process and serves as an instruction manual for new personnel and as a road map for product development action officers to follow. The handbook reflects the latest acquisition initiatives, particularly as they relate to non-major systems. The handbook addresses, and is limited to, responsibilities of the materiel developer, combat developer, logistician, trainer and tester of medical materiel. The Surgeon General's responsibilities associated with the acquisition of non-medical materiel are not included. There are two volumes. Volume One provides an overview of the Army Life Cycle System Management Model, the participants in the medical materiel acquisition process, pre-milestone I activities, and a summary of medical programs -- development, nondevelopment, modified nondevelopment, and product improvement. Volume Two consists of eighteen acquisition process chapters (such as Integrated Logistics Support, Test and Evaluation, and Training) each with accompanying flow charts that show the sequence of events and document flow by time and agency/office responsibility. Narrative descriptions are provided to assist action officers involved in the specific process. The handbook also discusses the regulatory interfaces required for medical material development and production including biological and pharmaceutical product developments.

This book was released on 2024-07-18 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The healthcare industry is increasingly complex, demanding personalized treatments and efficient operational processes. Traditional research methods need help to keep pace with these demands, often leading to inefficiencies and suboptimal outcomes. Integrating digital twin technology presents a promising solution to these challenges, offering a virtual platform for modeling and simulating complex healthcare scenarios. However, the full potential of digital twins still needs to be explored mainly due to a lack of comprehensive guidance and practical insights for researchers and practitioners. Exploring the Advancements and Future Directions of Digital Twins in Healthcare 6.0 is not just a theoretical exploration. It is a practical guide that bridges the gap between theory and practice, offering real-world case studies, best practices, and insights into personalized medicine, real-time patient monitoring, and healthcare process optimization. By equipping you with the knowledge and tools needed to effectively integrate digital twins into your healthcare research and operations, this book is a valuable resource for researchers, academicians, medical practitioners, scientists, and students.
