INS LifeGuard
The World Supply Situation for Medical Device Manufacturers

It’s no secret that many companies are struggling with supply chain disruptions and stock shortages as a direct result of international issues beyond their control, from COVID-19 and the war in Europe to the shortage of critical metals needed for manufacturing. In our extensive experience in supplying various equipment options, around 20% of all medical device manufacturers are struggling to manage component shortages.
Manufacturers for some of the in-home technology that we supply and monitor at The INS Group have recently advised us that they are expecting significant supply issues relating to critical components and some manufacturers will even be ceasing production of some critical components entirely at some stage in the very near future.
Instead of waiting for this to be a problem we have decided to pro-actively address the issue by sourcing up to date and supported equipment for future use.
What We Are Offering
To be sure that we continue to provide the highest quality service, we have decided to release a new program for our loyal customers allowing them to trade in their current eligible diallers for versions that, based on the information we have to date, will not be materially affected by the supply problems that our manufacturers are anticipating.
This offer is based upon trading in eligible hardware for new alternate hardware options that we have been able to secure volumes of on special pricing from the different manufacturers. The offer lasts until stocks run out.
