Strategic Procurement

Value-driven, fast and transparent procurement of health commodities through a trusted network of quality suppliers and manufacturers.

Hyperlocal Product Selection

We collaborate with ministries of health, academia, health service delivery institutions, donor agencies, among others, to inform the selection of commodities appropriate to the needs of a given country or program.

Fast and Accurate Forecasting

We utilize a set of proprietary forecasting and quantification tools – built, tested and optimized over more than 25 years of logistics experience – to develop accurate forecasts and procurement plans that ensure continuous stock availability, reduce wastage of commodities and enable complete accountability of funds disbursed.

Optimizing Supply Chains
