About The Position
At Houston Methodist, the Inventory Coordinator position is responsible for replenishment, monitoring, and analysis of perioperative and non-perioperative asset inventories. This position ensures supply of these inventories balance against demand needs of our clinical and ancillary partners. The Inventory Coordinator position monitors inventory transactions and key performance indicators to ensure inventory accuracy, limit expirations, and mitigate supply interruptions, while also partnering with clinicians to trial and evaluate new supplies, equipment and technology. Additionally, this position handles supply non-conformities by responding to product recalls, facilitating supply and communication flow with vendors, corporate supply chain partners and clinical customers. The Inventory Coordinator position requires a thorough knowledge of inventory management systems, policies, procedures and practices related to medical supply inventory management and provides a high level of critical thinking and problem solving to find alternatives to complex and diverse problems. The role involves establishing and maintaining formal and informal communication with partners, clinicians, and department leadership to identify needs and constraints of specific areas to ensure product availability. The Inventory Coordinator is responsible for the replenishment activities of perpetual and periodic average replenishment inventories to ensure inventory levels are maintained to meet customer demand while mitigating stock-outs and expirations. This position also has primary accountability for electronic inventory management system performance, including calibration and management of sensing systems, validation of date integrity for supply & location databases, and transaction management, reporting & auditing. In addition, the Inventory Coordinator collaborates with corporate buyers, value analysts, and item master file teams to ensure the master file data integrity, as well as a product's lifecycle from new product review, incorporation in the inventory, ongoing use, and evaluation. The role also includes collecting relevant data, compiling information for management decisions, and ensuring the successful execution of department services using appropriate resources. The Inventory Coordinator forecasts, plans, and executes replenishment orders and deliveries to ensure supplies and equipment are available for patient needs prior to, during, and post-supply interruption events, such as natural disasters, holidays, and backorder events. This job description is not intended to be all-inclusive; the employee will also perform other reasonably related business/job duties as assigned. Houston Methodist reserves the right to revise job duties and responsibilities as the need arises.
