Dear Colleague,
I hope you continue to stay safe and healthy. With ongoing supply chain disruptions impacting the world, serving your organization remains our highest priority. PartsSource is your partner to ensure you have the people, technology and supplies to keep mission-critical equipment operational for high quality patient care. We are committed to building a resilient supply chain and keeping you informed of trends impacting our industry. Below are the recent trends we would like to share with you:
- Batteries, patient monitoring, infusion pumps, beds and tables are the top modalities affected by the supply chain disruptions, creating additional backorders across the industry
- 92% of these backordered items are Biomed products, with batteries making up 20% of the delays. Shortages in raw materials for batteries, like lithium, chips and aluminum, are contributing to this limited availability
- Production in the plastics used to create many medical supplies has slowed in the United States due to a limited resin supply and weather issues surrounding production facilities
- Along with product delays, inflation is impacting prices for the material and services of products. Many suppliers are anticipating price increases. Our PRECISION Procurement® algorithm leverages quality and performance metrics while providing multiple product options that can help save costs
We have made enhancements to keep you informed about the essential products and services you need to operate efficiently. To provide greater visibility to your order status, we are delighted to announce a new feature to the PartsSource.com platform.
Understand Estimated Ship Date details: Gain peace of mind and see the order status information you need with Estimated Ship Date details. Access your Orders page and hover over the ? icon in the Estimated Ship Date column. Additional detail will appear with information on the Estimated Ship Date and the actions PartsSource is taking to help secure your item. Details and updates are logged real time. Be sure to access your Orders page regularly for the latest updates. Also, don’t forget to configure your custom notifications to have order updates provided to you via email or text.
We value your continued partnership as we navigate this challenging time together. We are committed to keeping you informed as new information is received. Please reach out to me if you have questions about these latest updates.
Warm regards,
Erin Tournoux
