About Michael Longnecker

A healthcare Sr. Manager, I am recognized for developing employees and leaders to thrive, setting supply chain strategies, and creating sustainable change management to drive cost savings and operations. As the Sr. Manager of Value-Based Health Partners (IHS) at Medtronic, I lead the supply chain organization for managed services and advisory services in hospitals. I partner with hospital leaders, colleagues, and lab managers to drive process improvements and positive change for customers, patients. LEADING NEW SUPPY CHAIN SEGMENT FOR VALUE BASED PARTNERS TO IMMEDIATE RESULTSI was recruited to lead the supply chain segment of a new value-based division to reduce costs for the partner hospitals and improve patient care. I build strong relationships with physician and nursing directors. I optimize inventory, reduce expired inventory and stock outs, and move order and replenishment duties from the nurses to the supply chain team. This strategy has resulted in $500,000 in savings, 75% reductions in stock outs and an 80% reduction in expired inventory for one customer in 18 months. DRIVING IMPROVEMENTS IN AUTOMATION, PRODUCTIVITY AND SERVICE LEVELSAs the former Sr. Manager Patient and Contact Solutions at Medtronic, I managed a compassionate team of 100 staff and management that drove successful processing registrations for the two largest USA businesses of Medtronic while increasing automation processing by 30%. I also managed an annual operating plan for two call centers.IMPROVING SUPPLY CHAIN OPERATIONS AND KPI’S FOR FORTUNE 500 COMPANIESI have implemented new supply chain planning and forecasting systems, launched new distribution centers, negotiated significant lead time reductions, implemented vendor management inventory programs and lean strategies, considerably increased inventory optimization, positively exceeded inventory targets, service levels, back orders and inventory turns for global Fortune 500 and privately-held companies.
