To guide our work, we use a strategic quality process to prioritise, execute and monitor manufacturing and supply chain efforts across the globe. The process enables our teams to work toward a common set of objectives, including sustainability metrics. It’s how we propelled our construction of LEED-certified facilities from Massachusetts to Malaysia to Costa Rica and beyond.
To meet the unique needs of 30 million patients each year, we need a wide variety of perspectives. Our products help patients from a diverse array of backgrounds, races and cultures. It’s only fitting that our suppliers should also reflect the diverse groups of patients that we serve.
Keeping our supply chain resilient and reliable
To ensure we are able to deliver for the more than 33 million patients annually who rely on our life-changing technology, our end-to-end global supply chain organisation is supported by an agile network adept at continuously responding to changing market conditions globally through supplier, manufacturing and distribution strategies. Our global supply chain network spans 15 principal manufacturing facilities including three facilities at Cork, Clonmel and Galway in Ireland, as well as various distribution, customer fulfillment and technology centres around the world.
Investing in a sustainable infrastructure
At Boston Scientific, we are continually investing in our facilities to improve energy efficiencies, reduce our carbon footprint and support employee well-being.
