OEM Quality Without the Brand Mark-Up — A 5-Step Checklist for East Africa
OEM-grade dialyzers often roll off the same production lines as top global brands—but reach East African clinics at 30–40% lower cost when routed through SHK Medical’s bulk pipeline. Here’s how to verify quality and switch with confidence.
5-Point OEM Quality Checklist
1. Certification Proof – ISO 9001:2015 & CE certificates available for every SHK batch.
2. Batch-Level Test Reports – Endotoxin and fibre-integrity data travel with the shipment.
3. 14-Day In-Clinic Trial Pack – Run side-by-side on your machines before full adoption.
4. Regulatory Dossier Help – SHK team prepares the paperwork.
5. Outcome Tracking – Quarterly dashboard: Kt/V, patient comfort, infection rate.
Real Numbers
Annual consumable spend for 100 patients:
• Branded supplies – $200 k
• SHK bulk model – $120 k Savings: ≈ $80 k (-40%)
Switch-Over Roadmap
Month 1 Assess current costs & request samples
Month 2 Run trial pack + collect staff feedback
Month 3 Sign 6-month supply contract
Month 4 Full roll-out with on-site training
Month 6 First savings review & reorder
