Does your supply chain look at transportation spend when looking to reduce costs?
< 1 min reading time

Are you or your 3PL maximizing the cube in your shipping container? What if you could double stack odd size, fragile, or high value units on frames and ship damage free? Is that cost savings important to the medical device community?

Louis Coenders Hi Michelle. I saw your post and I wonder why there are no reactions although this group has 318.378 members. I guess medical device manufacturers or distributors have no interest in reducing logistics costs or in streamlining their supply chain froma risk/costs perspective?

Michelle Springhorn Kingsbury I wonder as well. Everything I read from the President of Cardinal Health to the new CEO of Baxter the message has been to look for cost savings. We are doing good things for many in other industries already. One major medical device MFG discovered not only transportation cost savings but increased productivity thru their sterilization process.
Thanks for noticing

Surely, we look into transportation cost in olved in transportation of medical devices particularly capital equipment for the demo, standyby equipment movement and ofcourse post sales deliveries.
