NHS FPX 6008 Assessment 3 Developing an Implementation Plan Strategies to address dynamic environmental forces

There are different environmental risks that might affect the proposed initiative. The very first issue is maintaining the demand and supply chain as at times suppliers might not provide required materials and equipment in time. The second risk is the need for IT systems and community management to manage the increased patient counts as the community prefers to opt for health care, which offers all the needed services (Lenz & Reichert, 2017). The third risk factor is related to pandemic where risk of infection spread increases due to crowding (Lodhi, 2020). The fourth risk factor is availability of other diabetes care units within the vicinity of the organization, which might affect the patient in-flow and revenue. 

Even though the risk of supply chain management is there, efficient stocking and resource management prevents shortage of supply for a long time as it uses dynamic stocking to reduce the gap between supply and demand. The issue of supply and demand can be solved by implementing a resource management unit, which communicates with suppliers to keep steady flow of supply. The aspect of large health care networks, HIPPA compliance, and community education aid in addressing IT systems as the revenue helps in investing the share in deploying IT units to increase patient support (Chen & Benusa, 2017; Lenz & Reichert, 2017). This strategy overpowers other diabetes care units that cannot integrate IT framework in their setting. The aspect of pandemic can be addressed by using large campuses to maintain safer distancing, masks, sanitization, vaccination, and spreading awareness (Lodhi, 2020). However, social distancing is not viable for other competitors as they lack space to accommodate patients. The aspect of affordable care, availability of different services, and reputation has an edge over other diabetes facilities within the vicinity.
