Im currently a You Supply Chain Student in college and working with a hospital to make Par levels for there supplies. Basically your goal is to carry a lower amount of supplies but have a large safety stock. You accomplish this by doing physical inventories over a period of time to see how your inventory flows out of the supply room. Once you get some data then you can divide the amount supplies used by the amount of days they were used in to get a daily use. Then you want to talk to your supplies and create a confident lead time from the order date till the day you get the product from your supplier. Finally you want to create a safety stock by typically adding a couple extra products to the amount you carry so you don't run out. Being a hospital you want to make sure you never run out of something that is crucial to operation.
Couple more suggestions to improve your flow
- Barcoded supplies
- Good electronic inventory system
- twice a year physical inventory
- Cross trained staff
- FIFO to make sure nothing expires
- Good organization by department use
- Good relationship with suppliers

What are par levels?
Par levels are boundary markers in inventory levels that signal replenishment is necessary. For example: A pet store sells 2 bags of dog food a day with a variance of 10%, and it takes 3 days for an order to be delivered from a supplier. Statistically speaking, you should go through about 6.6 bags of dog food in those 3 days. That means that at a minimum the pet shop should set its minimum par level at 7, so when there are 7 bags left in stock an order should be placed to replenish the dog food inventory. I would probably go for 8 or 10 just so you don't run out. If your par levels are set too low, you risk of running out of product if you have a period where you are busier than usual. If your par levels are set too high, you may have more money invested in stock than is necessary. If coupled with poor rotation practices this can lead to spoilage or damage. It is good to find a level somewhere in between.
