A leading global provider of high-quality, orthopedic devices, with a broad range of products used for rehabilitation, pain management and physical therapy required the support of RGIS. The customer develops, manufactures and distributes a broad range of surgical reconstructive implant products with the main focus on quality, innovation and customer service within an extensive distribution network.
THE CHALLENGE

The orthopedic device provider required RGIS to provide the following:
- Experience within a healthcare environment
- To identify where each product was physically located during the sales cycle
- Inventory to include the high volume of stock that were deployed in the field and constantly in motion
