Enhanced efficiency

Dedicated delivery days: MWI works to consolidate orders for delivery on dedicated days*, increasing staff efficiency.

Reduced overhead: Benefit from reduced waste disposal costs and overheads.

Optimized staff time: By consolidating orders into twice-weekly deliveries, staff can shift from administrative tasks to patient care and revenue-generating activities.

Enhanced inventory management: Including fewer invoices, streamlined put-away processes and simplified inventory log updates and counting.

Environmental stewardship

Reusable plastic totes: Orders are delivered in strong, stackable totes that are collected on the next delivery. This reduces the need for single-use cardboard and Styrofoam, lowering your practice's carbon footprint.

Product security and integrity: Totes are strong and secured with zip ties to ensure product integrity throughout the supply chain.

Future readiness: The program aligns with shifting cultural expectations around sustainability

Practice culture

Less daily unpacking: Team members spend less time unpacking boxes daily, allowing more focus on patient care.

Positive workplace environment: More time spent on patient care helps bolster team morale and enhance workplace culture. Knowing they are working in a sustainable way gives a ‘feel good factor’.

Reputation for sustainability: Helps inside and outside to attract clients and talented professionals to your practice.
