Dear partners and interested parties,
the framework conditions for procurement management in hospitals have changed fundamentally in recent years. At the same time, the importance of procurement and logistics for the economic stability and long-term viability of hospitals is growing.
Consequently, the new study Procurement Monitor 2026/27 – Tasks for Hospital Procurement and Logistics aims to identify realistic courses of action to address supply disruptions and to identify how stakeholders in politics, the medical industry, purchasing groups and hospitals can contribute – in what ways – to actively address the dilemma of the increasing vulnerability of global supply chains.
The study’s findings not only provide a snapshot of current sentiment but also a robust basis for decision-making.
Yours sincerely,
Franziska Mehlhase
