SPD:
The Hidden Roadblock
To Surgical Growth

When surgical growth outpaces your SPD, what’s the path forward?

Every growing health system eventually hits the same constraint. Surgical demand keeps rising — internal sterile processing capacity can’t keep up (and is already overwhelmed).

When OR expansion outpaces SPD capacity, leaders are faced with significant challenges: to grow, they must spend millions expanding SPD infrastructure and struggle with how to handle trays during a multi-year capital project.

Instrumentum removes that constraint by outsourcing and load balancing your existing SPD departments with our offsite facilities — so growth can continue without interruption.

Hospital & ASC Leaders

  • Keep surgical growth on track
  • Avoid forced infrastructure decisions
  • Stabilize throughput system-wide

Vendor Leaders

  • Higher asset utilization and implant sales
  • Fewer logistics disruptions
  • More consistent case support

SPDs

  • Relief from vendor tray overload
  • A system designed to scale with demand
  • A better working environment and career opportunities

Accelerate Elective Surgery Volume Without The Capital And Time Required For Internal SPD Expansion.

Instrumentum supports your growth objectives by outsourcing and load balancing your existing SPD departments with our offsite facilities.

Predictable Throughput

Trays show up on time, every time, allowing for faster OR turns, building trust with surgeons and OR teams.

Scalable Capacity

Growth continues without multi-year and expensive capital projects to expand SPD departments.

System-Wide Reliability

By load balancing your entire SPD system, existing capacity is able to handle the high turn instrument trays in their existing footprint.

Capital Pressure Eliminated

Instrumentum owns any capital improvements going forward, and they are aligned with a fully integrated system-wide capacity plan.

Full SPD outsourcing, engineered as infrastructure that grows with you.

If growth is the goal, SPD capacity can’t be the roadblock.

Let’s discuss whether outsourcing SPD is the right next move for your system’s growth plans.
