You have the patients.
Our primary mission is to serve as your partner in helping provide
better patient care.
In that role, we see our task as one of keeping you supplied with
products that incorporate the latest technology on an economical
basis whenever and wherever you require them.
Carrying out this task takes the right combination of people, products
and performance – a considered combination that meets the needs
of your institution and your laboratory every day.
We have the history.
For nearly 50 years, we have been building an enviable reputation
for excellence, one founded on the goal of putting the patient at
the forefront of all our endeavors. History pays testimony to our
ability to repeatedly achieve these objectives while meeting new
challenges.
In the quickly growing and changing world of laboratory medicine,
we have kept abreast of the laboratory's requirements. Scientific
Products Distribution has been foremost in bringing leading-edge
capabilities in products and performance into the clinical laboratory.
We have the suppliers.
All our suppliers are leaders in their respective product categories
– leaders in their use of technology as well as in their vigilant
quest for new and better ways of helping the clinical laboratory
help patients.
We partner with our suppliers, working together in a variety of
ways from new product development to customer service and education,
to better serve you.
We have the products.
We have hundreds of thousands of items – an inventory so extensive
that we can handle in excess of 90 percent of your laboratory requirements
in every clinical laboratory discipline.
All of our products are clinically acceptable and meet or exceed
quality standards. They are made by companies that are proven market
leaders, and all incorporate the very latest technology for improved
performance for patients and laboratory personnel.
We have the people.
All of the products in the world will not, by themselves, allow
a company to achieve the status that Cardinal Health has. It takes
a lot of people – people who have exceptional skills in their
chosen fields. It takes people who recognize that their livelihood
is more than just a means to an end and that they play a part in
assuring the success of the American health care delivery system.
And, a great many Cardinal Health people spend the majority of their
professional lives seeking ways to make the system work even better.
They're happy doing the jobs they do. Witness the fact that the
person with whom you most frequently have contact, your Scientific
Products Distribution sales representative, has been with us for
an average of 15 years.
We get the job done.
We deliver the right product to the right place at the right time.
In fact, we deliver more than 900,000 products to more than 6000
sites of care nationwide every day. More than 80 percent of our
shipments travel on Cardinal Health's own trucks, the largest private
fleet in health care. In addition, we employ logistics management
systems and robotics in our distribution centers to ensure accelerated
product fill rates and picking accuracy.
To better serve our customers, we implemented our HORIZON™
business system, which features advanced software that integrates
order entry, materials management, sales data and other information
management activities across the company.
Our goal is to provide you with service excellence by making logistics
and supply management in health care as good as, or better than,
that in any other industry.
