Eugene Schneller remarked, “Innovation at ASU has been achieved through the collaboration of the university with industry and government. I support the University-Industry initiative of BSMA and look forward to raising supply chain management consciousness in Corporate America and advancing supply chain of healthcare through our research.” He added, “Most important, I believe that the health sector must begin to learn from industry best practices from across the most successful organizations outside health. Our development of our fully integrated supply chain model (FICO) is grounded in our learnings from GM, Intel, Philips in addition to the most progressive integrated delivery networks such as Kaiser, Banner, UPMC, Mercy, Dignity and Providence.”
