HAC Pharmacies Case Study on Data-Driven Purchasing

This case study details how HAC Pharmacies, an employee-owned retail pharmacy chain in Oklahoma, implemented SureCost to enhance their purchasing decisions and reduce costs. The document outlines the challenges faced by HAC, including high cost of goods sold (COGS) and a complex purchasing ecosystem that lacked transparency. The director of pharmacy, Joshua Miller, recognized the need for a more efficient solution to streamline purchasing processes and maximize savings. By integrating SureCost, HAC Pharmacies was able to consolidate vendor information, compare purchasing options, and drive smarter purchasing decisions. The solution not only saved HAC approximately $200,000 in just four months but also reduced the time spent on purchasing tasks. The case study highlights the onboarding process and the benefits of using SureCost, such as improved reporting capabilities and enhanced collaboration among staff across all locations. Overall, the implementation of SureCost has positioned HAC Pharmacies to better manage costs and improve operational efficiency.
