Case Study: Kantonsspital Winterthur achieves sustainable supply chain compliance with IntegrityNext

New standards in public healthcare for supply chain sustainability

Kantonsspital Winterthur (KSW), a healthcare provider in Switzerland, needed to meet the high-quality standards of its medical departments by establishing an automated process to gather ESG data from suppliers. The challenge was to embed these sustainability and quality criteria directly into its purchasing decisions. To address this, KSW turned to the vendor IntegrityNext and its platform for automated supplier assessments.

IntegrityNext implemented its platform to monitor 100% of KSW's direct spend against relevant sustainability and quality standards. The solution achieved a 97% response rate from suppliers and will be integrated into KSW's P2P system to make sustainability a natural part of sourcing. Additionally, IntegrityNext automatically controls the validity of certificates for medical devices, ensuring compliance and quality.
