A maternity hospital in the Philippines wanted to offer breast health screenings, but they ran into a couple of problems right away — no mammography machine and an exam room that wasn’t even finished yet. By partnering with a reliable medical equipment supplier, they brought in a 3D mammography machine. Mammography services launched ahead of schedule. Setup-to-service time dropped by 25%. Staff got ready from day one.
This growing maternity hospital in the Philippines focuses on comprehensive women’s healthcare, including obstetrics, gynecology, and preventive services. With no prior mammography capabilities, the hospital aimed to introduce advanced breast imaging equipment to better serve its community. The hospital manager led the project, coordinating between clinical needs, facility construction, and regulatory requirements.
The hospital’s new exam room was still being built when they decided to adopt a 3D mammography machine. Without careful scheduling, the machine could arrive too early—with no space for installation — or too late, delaying the launch of critical services.
As a first-time purchaser of breast imaging equipment, the hospital had limited familiarity with the Philippines’ FDA regulatory process. Missing documentation or missteps could prolong approval, delaying patient access to the new technology.
With no existing mammography team or protocols, the hospital needed to build a new clinical workflow from the ground up while ensuring staff could operate the 3D mammography machine confidently and efficiently.
As a one-stop medical equipment supplier, we provided detailed project planning support. We aligned the manufacturing and delivery schedule of the 3D mammography machine with the hospital’s construction progress, ensuring the equipment arrived precisely when the room was ready.
Our team assisted the hospital in preparing and submitting all required documents for FDA approval. And we coordinated with certifying bodies to streamline the process.
Upon delivery, we conducted an on-site installation paired with an operational orientation for the hospital’s technical staff. This allowed the team to gain hands-on familiarity with the system before patient services began.
The hospital successfully launched its mammography services immediately after the examination room’s completion, avoiding costly delays caused by misaligned schedules.
With coordinated delivery and installation, the time between the examination room’s completion and the official launch of patient services was cut in 25%, accelerating the hospital’s return on investment.
Staff felt prepared to use the system as soon as the first patient arrived, thanks to early training and a well-defined workflow.
“We were new to mammography, but you made it simple. The whole process was smooth from start to finish.”
