Transparency is key to eliminating extra layers of cost in healthcare!
Supply Chain Strategy & Optimization/Business Case Maximization/ Global Healthcare Sourcing/Driving Efficiency & Value in Healthcare
https://lnkd.in/ehKWeUSH As we move into the new year, some of healthcare supply chain problems still persist in many instances to myopic thinking and a failure to realize the need to change paradigms. The healthcare supply chain world is changing at light speed and in most instances upstream visibility and transparency isn't keeping pace with the advancements in the downstream. Visibility is an issue especially when your supply chain starts 6500 nautical miles from our west coast, but so is transparency. It's time for our healthcare supply chain leaders to have a moment of clarity as well as honesty about where the vast majority of Class I, Class II and Class III products derive. Our mainline distributors/suppliers don't manufacture these products most of the time. They use FDA contract manufactures all over the globe but primarily in Southeast Asia. Healthcare system leaders must start asking questions like Tom Harvieux asked. Who controls the raw material? We also need to be tracking on the Chinese New Year, container rates, bunker fuel rates and contract shipping rates, logistic costs from port to the DC and with these we get a better picture of imbedded costs and risks. There are also a whole host of geopolitical issues.Secondly, there aren't limited manufacturers of most products. Take a look through the FDA website. Fluids are a little different however we need to change the way we think about how we source, procure and own Class I, Class II and Class III products. What's the definition of insanity?? Visibility and transparency work hand in hand and we must start functioning in some regard like other supply chains. Sure, health systems have a multitude of SKU's but so does a 787 Dreamliner....2.3 million. Look through the 10Q or 10K of a few on your publicly traded suppliers and find out how much manufacturing capacity they actually own. It may surprise you how little. Modern end to end supply chain theory demands that we have visibility from raw material to the final end user but we have to know every entity along every step. Take pharmaceuticals for instance. China and India produce about 60% of all API's imported to the United States. Scarier yet, 90% of all generics rely on API's produced outside the United States. Take their lead and know where your inputs are derived. We in the healthcare system setting especially those with scale need to build direct relationships with these global manufacturers. It will reduce supply chain risk, disruption, lower costs, provide for greater transparency and create greater business continuity by reducing shortages. Reach out and let's talk supply chain!! Happy New Year!! Duncan Dashiff Gene Schneller Warren Sukernek

Our mission is to drastically streamline the procurement cycle, empowering your business to adapt quickly to changing needs with unparalleled efficiency. Here’s another customer success story! Cato supplied 570,720 Carestart antigen tests and 2,000 Lucira RT-Lamp tests to support large corporate, state, and municipal government entities. The contract value was in the multi-million-dollar range in direct purchase. “Cato has been exceptional throughout the purchase order and procurement process, presenting numerous options for COVID-19 test kits for self-administered application and helping finance high-volume test kit transactions (beginning the relationship with a seven-figure unit at-home test kit order). We searched and evaluated other COVID-19 test kit sources. Cato was the most competitive, offering the best solutions to meet our testing supply needs, and very flexible in shipping terms and able to deliver quickly to meet our requirements. I recommend Cato as a reputable and reliable source for any organization looking for any volume of COVID-19 test kits, e.g., Antigen, RT-PCR, PCR. Cato’s access to this highly sought-after medical product has exceeded the needs of our clients, especially amid one of the most severe periods of supply chain disruption and test kit scarcity in recorded history.” - President, Global Healthcare E-Commerce Company Let our team of seasoned supply chain professionals help you! https://www.cato.supply/

Join our long list of customer successes! Cato has sourced and delivered more than 72 million products and has over 1,100 manufacturing and distribution partners. We empower businesses to adapt quickly to their changing needs with unparalleled efficiency: In January 2024, Cato engaged in a long-term state health department contract to provide a comprehensive range of premium brand products including 32 unique SKUs across 49 medical facilities. The contract included PPE, diagnostic tests, and air purification products. “Cato's commitment to excellence was evident in their 100% fulfillment rate, efficiently managing everything from distribution to logistics. Notably, Cato secured pricing that surpassed our expectations, offering better rates than we previously obtained through Grainger. Cato even curated substitutes on certain products to pass along significant cost savings and quicker fulfillment times. Their competitive pricing, combined with their flawless service delivery, has solidified our decision to continue our partnership with Cato as a distributor for our ongoing contracts. We highly recommend Cato for their reliability, competitive pricing, and exceptional service.” - President, Major E-commerce Medical Distributor #HealthcareSupplyChain #MedicalSupplies #catosupply https://www.cato.supply/
