How Strategic Stock Solution works
In our rapidly-evolving healthcare landscape, supply chain management for healthcare organizations has been catapulted into a role of even greater importance.
For healthcare supply chains, it can be challenging to secure the right products and the right amount of space.
Strategic Stock Solution was developed to provide space reallocation and time savings by taking the burden of storage and inventory management from your facility.
Your supply storage, expertly managed
We can save your facility storage space by hosting your procured products, such as PPE, PPI, direct-to-manufacturer, bulk buys, etc. at a reliable facility within our network. In this program, you can place orders as normal through your Materials Management Information System (MMIS) that will then be managed and stored with us. Our Strategic Stock Solution provides visibility to your inventory through standardized reporting to show our assistance with reconcilitation, and expiration date tracking. The result: space and time savings to help you deliver the best patient care.
