Getting in the Door.
The number one problem facing foreign companies is having an opportunity to tell their story to the key decision makers in the US.
Too many companies spend too much time and money targeting large Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs), Integrated Distribution Networks (IDNs), and distributors with the same inadequate value propositions.
Product features, clinical outcomes, supply chain ability, customer support, product price, terms, conditions and company reputation are some of the key considerations used in determining what products are accepted into a GPO portfolio.
We enable you to reach key decision makers with a tailored, effective message.
Biggest Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs)
Understanding How Purchasing Works
90% of the 7,800 US hospitals contract with GPOs, and of those that do, typically work with 2-4 per facility. (GAO Report)
IDNs and GPOs are constantly trying to enhance the role and power of their primary vendor, the distributor while Distributors proactively try to standardize products and reduce vendors.
Additionally, Price is not typically at the top of most contracting decisions but is usually one of the last components discussed and negotiated in any contracting process.
Having an ongoing relationship with key distributors at all levels is crucial to a successful sales strategy.
