GEP

GEP, a leading global provider of transformative strategy, software and managed services solutions in procurement and supply chain, helped healthcare providers procure Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and related materials as a pro bono service when there was serious shortage during the worst of the Covid-19 crisis in 2020. GEP leveraged its experience and expertise in procurement and supply chain and its vast supplier database to connect healthcare institutions and professionals with suppliers who had PPE stock available, via an online portal that was developed for the purpose. The company provided additional support in identifying distribution mechanisms and vetting suppliers.
