ABOUT
Founder & CEO
Derek has worked both sides of the table — as a supply chain consultant advising hospitals on cost reduction, and on the provider side managing the categories, the vendors, and the contracts firsthand. He has seen what consulting firms charge, and he has seen what hospitals actually receive: a 6-month engagement, a binder of recommendations the internal team already suspected, and an invoice that would fund a full-time FTE for three years. Then the consultant leaves, the IP walks out the door, and the hospital starts over.
Hospital Focus CK is the platform Derek wished he had on both sides. Instead of paying for a consulting engagement that expires, hospitals subscribe to a continuously updated intelligence workspace — 200+ initiative playbooks, a vendor-centric execution pipeline, and acontractual guarantee that the platform will identify savings opportunities equal to 5× the annual subscription cost within 90 days.
The company is founder-led. When you sign up, the person answering your support email is the person who built the product — and the person who has sat in your chair.
Consultants identify savings and leave. We identify savings AND give you the execution tools to capture them — playbooks, vendor-centric project boards, template generators, and contract monitoring.
We never ask for PO files, AP exports, EHR access, or patient data. Not because of a policy toggle — because the platform is architecturally incapable of ingesting it. No HIPAA BAA required. No IT department approval.
Every RFP you generate, every contract you negotiate, every savings analysis you build — those are yours. The methodology is licensed; the output is owned by you. Nothing walks out the door.
Hospital Focus CK is working with a small group of design-partner hospitals to validate the platform in production. If you run supply chain for a community hospital or regional system and want direct access to the founder during your first 90 days, this is the window.
