27 Contract Innovation: Linen Utilization Programs GUP & GRUMP In addition to negotiating lower unit prices ($/lbs.) for linen processing, BISS implemented innovative gain-share utilization programs with 2 main vendors GUP & GRUMP programs employ proprietary data management technology and systems to monitor and report real time linen usage statistics Detailed, up-to-date linen intelligence is then used to identify high utilization hotspots for targeted linen handling & change management education Savings achieved are shared on a graduated basis with vendors Impacts: # Reduced linen use by 8% # Financial savings of $2.0M annually Savings from reduced use: $2.0M / yr. Savings from lower unit prices: $0.15M / yr. 27
