Bill brings over 25 years of sales and consulting experience in healthcare. Following several years of successful field sales experience for a leading industry medical supplier, Bill sought out opportunities in the hospital construction and healthcare capital equipment market. His hospital design and construction experience started with The Architect’s Collaborative in Cambridge, MA, where he successfully designed and implemented an application to plan equipment and perform cost estimates. The application was employed for TAC’s healthcare clients throughout North America and around the globe, including several projects in Europe, the Middle East and Southeast Asia. He then moved to RHA, a South Carolina firm dedicated to equipment planning. At RHA, Bill began the planning for Healthcare International (HCI) in Scotland where he joined the staff in 1991. During a three-year posting in the UK, Bill managed the entire equipment/furniture procurement effort totaling more than $20 million and employed project and negotiating tactics that have become his hallmark. In 1995, Bill returned to the States and launched William B. McGowan & Associates, a project planning and equipment procurement consulting firm. After operating independently for several years, Bill merged operations with RHA to form Source Atlantic. His skill set includes in-depth knowledge of the healthcare capital equipment market, strategic acquisition planning, procurement tactics, and contract negotiation. He has presented to the United Nations Development Council on how to plan and execute healthcare projects in the developing world and has participated in several industry roundtable forums. His education includes a Bachelor of Science degree from Boston College.
