William J. O’Connor
President and Chief Executive Officer
As President, Chief Executive Officer, and sole owner of OC Reilly, Inc., Bill provides leadership drawn from his nearly 35-year legacy of developing and implementing solid, relevant and current supply chain solutions. His concept for OC Reilly remains the same today as when he launched the firm in 2005: Specializing in business improvement to reduce overall spend and enhance revenue while maintaining superior patient care.
Bill and the talented OCR team have positively impacted the financial bottom-line of some of the most noted organizations in the United States by hundreds of millions of dollars since their inception. They have also reduced inventories and improved cash flow by tens of millions of dollars across the country as well. Their hands-on approach has enabled them to accomplish this while having great success limiting disruption, keeping quality at a high level, and bringing many organizations back into regulatory compliance.
Bill founded and served as the leader of Provider Supply Chain Partners, a successful, growing, Pittsburgh-based entity serving the Allegheny Health Network and more than 50 hospitals in the Tri-State area. Prior to forming OC Reilly, Bill served as corporate director of supply chain for the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), responsible for an annual spend approaching $1 billion, as well as for asset inventories and expensed supply locations exceeding $150 million at nearly 600 locations. He has served with many industry associations, including in leadership positions. He holds a bachelor’s degree in communications from Clarion University of Pennsylvania.
“When I formed OC Reilly a number of years ago, I trusted that we had the right vision to create a high-value business,” he said. “When I look at what we have created today, those expectations were not nearly big enough. It is a true blessing to work with this team and to serve such a great collection of clients.”
