The Diagnostic Equipment Service Conundrum How Much Is Too Much? How Little Is Too Little?

In light of laboratory pressures to do more with less, laboratory managers transfer cost control onto vendors by means of a constant push for price reductions. In this commercial climate, efficient management of customer and technical service extras is critical. Expertise in managing service offerings will help companies offer service programs that are just enough to differentiate them from the competition. Service programs that offer too much may result in revenue loss. Programs that are perceived to be inadequate place the company at a competitive disadvantage.

In The Diagnostic Equipment Service Conundrum: How Much is Too Much? How Little is Too Little? Kalorama Information's analyst Shara Rosen provides a unique benchmarking tool not available from any other syndicated source consisting of the instrument-specific service offerings, managed service offerings, and remote diagnostic capabilities and offerings of selected major IVD companies. This research can assist service and product managers developing a service plan, as well as marketing executives interested in the competiveness of company offerings.
