Who NDS Serves

We support hospitals by expanding access to products otherwise not available through their ordinary supply chain. NDS can help hospitals who directly source for patient-specific needs or to overcome temporary shortages. Through our broad supplier network, we can support a variety of specialized needs, such as sourcing requests for expanded access, sometimes called compassionate use, or named patient basis.

You can rely on the NDS process. We offer visibility to tens of thousands of products within a portal receiving updates of manufacturer-reported clinical information. This information is furnished by the same global data provider trusted by the top U.S. hospitals and over 20 million healthcare professionals worldwide. We are in full compliance with the U.S. Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), as well as meeting or exceeding U.S. and World Health Organization Good Distribution Practices (GDP) for medicinal products.

We understand that your patients and customers rely on you to provide a steady stock of quality affordable medicines, nutritional supplements, and other sundries—it’s a responsibility we take very seriously. Sourcing excellent product at lower costs is essential, but in healthcare, so is transparency and strong quality control. At NDS, we have the systems in place to offer both integrated traceability and reverse traceability throughout our receiving and shipping processes. This complex service brings you the peace of mind you need.

Strong procurement practices must be supported by comprehensive yet streamlined ordering systems capable of providing accurate and timely information. NDS gives you the ability to simplify procurement practices. From role-based restrictions to visibility into purchasing history, the NDS portal provides customer-driven procurement control and the robust analytics to help you gain the most from your purchasing experience.

Complex clinical trials lead to complexities in sourcing. Studies spanning across multiple countries that involve large patient populations can pose a real challenge in ensuring comparators are available in the right quantity and at the right time. Research professionals and others in complex settings can rely on NDS to source authentic and effective products that will impact the accuracy of their results. With NDS, you also gain a broad, reliable supplier base with competitive pricing who is always searching for new suppliers of comparator drugs and reference listed drugs (RLD) with stringent due diligence.

NDS provides full transparency on the supply chain back to the manufacturer and is qualified as compliant according to the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA). Learn more about why you can confidently add NDS to your trusted supplier network.
