Case Study: Physicians Eye Surgery Center cuts purchasing time by 20 hours a month with Hybrent

Hybrent’s one-stop vendor shop saves PESC’s materials manager from spending her whole day shopping dozens of different vendor sites to order her supplies

Physicians Eye Surgery Center (PESC), Washington state’s first accredited outpatient surgery center dedicated to eye care, needed a better way to manage purchasing across its surgery center, clinic, and optical dispensary. Materials Manager Michelle M. was spending more than 20 hours a month placing small orders with 40+ vendors, tracking staff requests manually, and entering purchase orders into Sage 100 by hand.

Hybrent implemented its purchasing and invoicing platform for PESC, integrating with Sage 100 and giving Michelle access to a mobile app, real-time vendor information, and reporting tools. With Hybrent, her purchasing time dropped by 20 hours per month, and order creation went from a full 8-hour day to just 1 hour, while also reducing manual work and improving inventory and invoice reconciliation.
