Cenmed Announces Instrument Laboratory Repair & Calibration Services

New Brunswick, USA, 07/16/2012 / SubmitMyPR /

Cen-Med Enterprises, located at 121 Jersey Avenue in New Brunswick, is inaugurating a new laboratory repair division dedicated to the service and repair of analytical instruments and storage equipment in labs.

It has been estimated that fixed costs approach 50% of a clinical lab’s budget. In many laboratories, a major component of these fixed costs is the need for constant upgrades. “You don’t always the latest toy. Sure, the manufacturers will try their best to tell you otherwise, but with the right maintenance, you’re probably okay with the equipment you have., ” says Rizwan Chaudhry, Vice President of Cenmed Enterprises. “While purchasing new equipment is subject to long term fixed contracts, labs are also facing tremendous pressures to reduce expenditures, due to falling reimbursements.” It is expected that these pressures will only increase in intensity as the Affordable Care Act becomes more fully operational.

Responding to the financial needs on the part of the labs has always been a key precept of Cen-Med’s business strategy. A long time valued supplier for many hospitals, and laboratories in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut, Cenmed provides labs with quality supplies at value pricing. “With the expansion of Cen-Med’s clinical sales, support staff, and product offering, it was the next logical step to provide some of the very same customer service oriented offering, to our lab customers. With our equipment and instrument repair service business, we will offer on-site repairs and in-house repairs, for everything from refrigeration equipment and other laboratory repair to pipette calibrations,” continues Rizwan, “we literally want to be your one stop shop.”

Cen-Med provides laboratory repair services, calibration services, preventative maintenance on a per hour basis, with no commitment contract for minimum hours required. This has the key outcome of turning a fixed cost expenditure into a variable cost, resulting in significant savings. Cen-Med has highly trained technicians who are ready to take action to meet the needs and requests of lab directors. The plans are for the new division to market its laboratory repair services in the Northeast and gradually become nationwide.
