Sole Source, Infinite Choice: The New Era of Tourniquet Standardization

In the healthcare supply chain, “standardization” is often a loaded word. For procurement teams, it means necessary savings and streamlined logistics. But for clinicians, it often raises concerns about “one-size-fits-all” products that don’t meet the diverse needs of their patients.

Usually, you have to choose between the aggressive savings of a sole-source contract and the product variety of a multi-vendor approach.

With Caresfield as the Exclusive Novaplus® Sole Source Supplier for Phlebotomy Tourniquets (Contract MS1507), you no longer have to compromise.

We are proving that a Sole Source partnership can deliver both tier-best pricing and the industry’s widest clinical choice.

Standardization Without the Struggle

This renewed agreement is designed to deliver the supply chain reliability you expect from the Novaplus label. Unlike traditional sole-source agreements that limit your options, Contract MS1507 expands them.

Caresfield offers the industry’s broadest range of tourniquets, featuring 4 distinct packaging configurations. Whether your phlebotomists prefer textured bands for better grip, smooth bands for sensitive skin, or pediatric-specific sizing, we have a compliant solution available on contract.

NEW: Unlock the Impact Standardization Program

The diversity of our product line isn’t just a clinical benefit, it’s now a major financial opportunity.

For the first time, the Phlebotomy Tourniquet category has been added to the Vizient Specialty Care Impact Standardization Program. This new eligibility transforms your tourniquet spend from a cost center into a potential revenue stream.

Here is the reality of compliance: It is hard to hit 90% if your clinical staff rejects the product. When nurses hoard off-contract supplies because the “standard” product is difficult to use, your compliance score drops, and you miss out on rebates.

Because Caresfield offers the broadest range of clinically preferred options (textured, smooth, sensitive), we make hitting that 90% threshold natural for your team, turning clinical satisfaction into bottom-line revenue.

Sourcing with Purpose

Moving your business to Contract MS1507 also supports your organization’s broader social and environmental goals.

  • Responsible Sourcing Certified: We are proud to hold Vizient’s Responsible Sourcing Certification, ensuring our partnership supports supplier diversity.
  • Environmentally Preferred: Our tourniquets are designated as Environmentally Preferred products, helping you reduce your environmental footprint in the supply room.
