NORTHFIELD, Ill. – Medline has received two supply chain recognitions by the Healthcare Industry Resiliency Collaborative (HIRC), a neutral, nonprofit standardization organization that gives health care organizations tools to measure, compare and strengthen supply chain resiliency. Medline earned the HIRC Highest Member Choice Award for Supplier Partnership, which recognizes suppliers who "engage providers as long-term partners through shared problem-solving, commercial maturity and durable collaboration.” The recognition is based on nominations from health care provider partners and is the highest in HIRC's supplier partnership award category. Medline also received the HIRC Distinguished Member Choice Award for Resiliency, a nomination-based recognition honoring suppliers who "consistently strengthen continuity through operational rigor, demand discipline and real contingency readiness.” "This award is for our customers – whom we get up every day to work for – validating the thought and investment that we've put into resilience and transparency," said Marc Phillips, Medline senior vice president, supply chain solutions. "This recognition continues to fuel our market-leading supply chain approach.”
