Judy Webb-Hapgood joined University of Miami from the University of Wisconsin Health System where she was the system vice president of Supply Chain & Support Services. She led the supply chain operations and support services for a $4.8 billion academic system with approximately 1,797 physicians and 22,000 staff at seven hospitals and 86 outpatient sites. An integrated health system of the University of Wisconsin, with core clinical sites in Madison, WI and Rockford, IL, Webb-Hapgood managed multiple revenue and non-revenue generating business units across Wisconsin and Illinois to include Procurement, Sterile Processing, Material Management, Clinical Quality Value Analysis, Clinical Nutrition, Culinary Operations, Surplus Operations to include a Recycle program, Cafeterias & Retail space; Health Technology Operations, Mail services, Vendor management ops, Transportation/Courier Services, and a Distribution Service Center/Warehouse.

There, she secured and finalized a one-of-a-kind operational agreement that created UW Health’s first central distribution support services center, an initiative that generated more than $1 million in revenue in its first six months through product standardization. Her transformational approach resulted in a complete realignment of supply chain operations that garnered a $50 million group purchasing organization volume increase. This enterprise supply chain approach led to UW Health being recognized in the top 20 of 570 hospitals in “Perfect Ordering Reporting.”  Her leadership led to the negotiation and acquisition of the first ever proton therapy upright treatment chair in the United States for UW Health’s distinguished Carbone Cancer Center. In addition, she initiated and championed the first supply chain internship program between the University of Wisconsin School of Business, UW Health, and Medline in 2022, building the future of supply chain leaders.

Before coming to UW Health, she was at The University of Oklahoma where she served as the System Associate Vice President of Procurement. The University of Oklahoma is a $2.5 billion academic system with approximately 1,300 physicians and 14,000 staff. She led procurement operations at multiple campuses to include Norman, Health Sciences Center, Tulsa, and international campuses. Her leadership at OU encompassed the acquisition life cycle supporting numerous areas to include academics, clinics/hospitals, physician group, facilities, real estate, food services, vendor dinning, catering, golf course, airport, athletics, police department, fire department, information technology, marketing, human resources, finance, and administration. During her tenure at OU, she directly supported the merger of OU Physicians Group and OU Medicine (the hospital enterprise) into a single enterprise, OU Health. She also helped grow the 2020 research portfolio to a university record of $377.6 million, an increase of 22.19% from 2019 amidst the Covid pandemic. 

Prior to joining the private sector, Webb-Hapgood had a distinguished 20-year career in public service as a commissioned officer in the United States Air Force. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Biology/Chemistry from Southwestern Oklahoma State University, Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, and Master of Business Administration from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.
