Healthcare Performance Solutions
Every hospital wants patients to leave
healthier than when they arrived. But often,
the small, seemingly non-essential things —
such as misplaced equipment, significant
wait times or frustrating processes — can
affect the patient experience and increase
the cost of care. GE is helping hospital
systems like Ochsner and Virtua Health
develop and execute strategies that align
their organizations; streamline processes;
upgrade technical capabilities; and optimize
flow, resources and space. With innovative
GE technologies and services, hospitals
have the potential to increase operational
efficiency, decrease patient wait times,
reduce length of stay and eliminate
unnecessary costs.
Airline Operational Efficiency
GE Aviation is constantly striving to help
customers improve their cost of ownership.
We have worked with KLM Airlines to
identify and prioritize projects across their
fleet that will lead to significant savings.
The GE team is helping KLM implement
these savings projects in several areas,
including overhaul shop activity, repair
development, material solutions, produc-
tivity improvements and environmental
solutions.
