For years, healthcare organizations have invested heavily in making sure vendors are credentialed before they walk through the door. That’s important work, but it’s only one part of what it takes to keep surgery running on schedule.
Every day, perioperative teams coordinate dozens of moving parts before a patient ever enters the operating room. Vendor representatives need to be scheduled. Loaner instrumentation has to arrive on time. Sterile processing teams need visibility into incoming equipment. Surgeons need confidence that everything required for the case will be there when they need it.
When even one piece breaks down, the entire surgical schedule can be affected.
That's why we're excited to expand Green Security's capabilities in surgical vendor scheduling, case coordination, and OR readiness.
One of the things we’ve learned over the years is that hospitals don’t think in terms of software categories. They aren’t asking whether vendor credentialing is working or whether scheduling software is working.
They’re asking a much simpler question: Is tomorrow’s case ready?
Answering that question requires connecting information that traditionally lives in separate systems and separate workflows.
A credentialed vendor who isn’t scheduled creates problems. A scheduled representative whose loaner trays haven’t arrived creates problems. Equipment that’s available but invisible to the right teams creates problems. Readiness isn’t built through one workflow. It’s created when all of those workflows come together.
By ensuring that vendor representatives meet all required compliance, training, vaccination, and credentialing requirements before they are scheduled for a case or facility visit, healthcare organizations can proactively reduce risk and eliminate last-minute disruptions.
Healthcare organizations are under more pressure than ever to improve operating room efficiency.
Margins remain tight. Surgical volumes continue to increase. Staffing shortages leave little room for unexpected disruptions. Every delayed procedure affects patients, clinicians and hospital performance.
At the same time, hospitals are looking beyond point solutions. Rather than adding another application to manage another piece of the process, they’re increasingly looking for platforms that connect operational workflows across departments.
That’s the opportunity we see.
For more than fifteen years, this technology has helped hospitals coordinate surgical vendors, loaner equipment and case preparation directly inside Epic OpTime.
At Green Security, we’ve spent years helping hospitals ensure vendors are credentialed, compliant and ready to enter the facility.
Together, those capabilities create something neither company could deliver alone: a more complete picture of everything that happens before and during surgery.
Instead of treating credentialing, vendor scheduling and equipment coordination as separate operational tasks, hospitals can begin viewing them as connected parts of a single readiness workflow.
This integration helps ensure that every representative is verified and compliant before ever stepping foot into the operating room, improving patient safety, streamlining coordination between clinical and vendor teams, and strengthening overall regulatory compliance.
This acquisition is about expanding our definition of vendor operations. We believe the next generation of VendorOps will help healthcare organizations understand not just whether vendors are authorized to be onsite, but whether every person, every piece of equipment and every operational dependency is aligned before a procedure begins.
We see this as the next chapter for VendorOps. By connecting the workflows that support surgery before a patient ever enters the operating room, we’re helping hospitals move beyond managing vendors to orchestrating readiness. This ensures that the right people, with the right qualifications, equipment, and approvals, are in the right place at the right time. That’s a meaningful shift for healthcare operations, and it’s one we’re proud to help lead.
