Be Your Company’s Healthcare Logistics Hero

In logistics, it’s hard to have the best of both worlds. When you cut costs, you usually have to make performance sacrifices. In fact, managing the logistics of your business often comes down to striking the right balance between saving money and getting the job done.

But what if you didn’t have to make that trade? For healthcare and laboratory companies, it’s possible to get better results and save money by turning to an outsourced fleet services provider. Taking your courier work outside the company comes with a whole host of advantages. Below, we’ll identify three specific benefits of outsourcing your courier work.

Outsourcing Benefit #1 – Control Payroll Costs

Payroll is the largest single expense for many businesses and controlling how much of your budget is directed toward personnel is critical to the bottom line. Of course, employees who perform core functions are essential to your business, but other roles may be better handled by an outside contractor.

That’s exactly the case in regard to courier services. Rather than paying employees like drivers and dispatchers to manage the job, turn the task over to professionals who aren’t on your payroll. Your costs will be controlled, and the job will get done properly time after time. Remember, you aren’t just saving wages here – benefits like healthcare, retirement, paid vacation, and more all add up.

Outsourcing Benefit #2 – Masters of Efficiency

Professional courier services are in the business of efficiency. They want to get the job done safely and quickly, so they can move on to the next pickup and delivery. Mastering this kind of efficient movement of samples and supplies is something that takes time and experience – so why not put all of that knowledge to work for you?

Most likely, you’ll never reach courier levels of efficiency with an in-house solution – and even if you did, it would take years to get there. There’s simply no reason to spend so much time pursuing a level of performance that an outside agency can already offer.

Outsourcing Benefit #3 – Avoid Vehicle Maintenance

All vehicles need to be maintained, and the maintenance needs can add up quickly for a fleet that racks up a lot of miles each month. Yet again, this is a task that your organization is not likely prepared to handle, adding another layer of complexity to the idea of having an in-house fleet.

From the basics like oil changes and tire checks to more advanced repairs, this is a need that will persist as long as you have cars on the road. Professional courier services have their maintenance processes dialed in to save money and keep their vehicles moving.

The Right Partner

There’s little doubt that outsourcing your courier work is going to save your organization money in both the short- and long-term. At the same time, you’ll get better performance and take a potential headache off of your to-do list. The only thing left to do is pick the right partner – and that partner is Path-Tec. With the quality service you demand, and the technology needed to stay at the top of the industry, Path-Tec is an easy choice. Contact us today to learn more about our courier services.
