Vendor-managed inventory
ValueLink
® "stockless" inventory-management services
can provide significant savings to a hospital through one-time inventory
reductions and lower inventory-management costs. This is achieved
through improved supply-replenishment processes and consolidation
of multiple vendors.
Under the ValueLink
® program, we design a system tailored to the
needs of individual facilities, from daily bulk delivery to fully
integrated stockless systems. Deliveries are made on a just-in-time
basis from a nearby distribution center, reducing the need to maintain
stock on location. For many accounts, Cardinal Health delivers directly
to the patient floor and provides on-site staff 24 hours a day to
ensure that supplies are on-hand when needed.
The ValueLink
® program is a true partnership between us and our
customers the more we invest together, the more we both save.
