Why should central labs analyze the cost of quality of their supply chain?

How different performance rates during transport can affect quality, patient experience and cost-efficiency?

Managing a clinical trial involves multiple moving parts, including the transport of patient samples and shipments to support this - kits, reagents and medical devices - across various temperature ranges.

Temperature sensitivity and short shelf lives require absolute precision when transporting biological samples. The losses emanating from lower performance rates and excursions could be devastating in terms of patient satisfaction, reputation and cost.

Read our article to learn more about why calculating the cost of quality should be central to any central lab supply chain planning.

"We transport precious shipments and we don't take this responsibility lightly. Behind every sample is a human life." - Stewart Black, Service Director, Laboratory Logistics
