Chad Austin
Chad is a proven Operational Leader in the Healthcare, Digital, Automotive, Industrial, and Manufacturing industries with experience in global organizations ranging from $900M to $80B. He has proven performance managing operational budgets up to $2B and capital expense budgets up to $750M. Mr. Austin is a capable mentor with a track record of attracting, recruiting, and advising teams of up to 5,500, building the foundations necessary to accelerate performance and increase revenue. The following are a few benchmark achievements:
Business Transformation and Process Optimization
Mr. Austin upgraded hospital systems with a singular consolidation of five systems across eight locations. With the client’s support, he streamlined processes and fully integrated these disparate systems into the parent company. He re-engineered supply chain management, distribution, logistics, procurement, long-range financial planning, etc., to rationalize operations. This declared SOP / Best Practice unified the entire ecosystem across all clinical settings, eliminated system/process redundancies, abridged inventory on hand, enhanced capabilities, and resulted in over $250M in cost savings (>5%).
Financial Management
The client desired to migrate outdated systems to Oracle Cloud. To do so, Chad sought to integrate financials for effective planning. He first transformed necessary hospital systems, followed by those of the parent company, then completed the desired migration. This enhanced all processes (accounting, finance, claims, reimbursement), resulting in cost savings of ~$500M annually within a $750M investment.
