Description

Healthcare organizations face continuous pressure to effectively manage expenses and improve profit margins while meeting growing demands in the communities they serve. In parallel, the infrastructure is getting older, with deferred maintenance statistics increasing year over year. Healthcare organizations are seeking to increase energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. It is a perfect storm of conflicting financial priorities - so where do we start? Join this session to learn about asset-driven budgeting and forecasting.

2. Present case study data and operating expense benchmark data using plant, property & equipment (PP&E) metrics versus traditional gross square foot for additional validation of staffing, utility, and compliance resource needs.
3. Demonstrate the statistical significance and relationship between operational and capital budgets, and the negative impacts of increasing deferred maintenance on operational efficiency.
4. Provide a defined asset-driven framework for facility business planning, including, and supporting larger ESG, Master Planning and other strategic initiatives.
