THE SITUATION

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and antibody testing are being used by a variety of employers to test their employees for coronavirus and ensure they are safe to come to work. Testing is mission critical for essential businesses, particularly hospitals and health systems with close to seven million employees who are on the frontlines fighting the pandemic.

Based in Chicago, BASE10 Genetics, partnered with Exegistics to handle logistics for their medical testing kits including Rapid Antibody Test (results within 12-24 hours of lab processing) and PCR Test (results within 48 hours of lab processing).

“From dock to stock and then from stock to customer, we are working in lockstep with BASE10 to ensure they can keep up with growing demand for their product,” said Steve Bilden, VP of Operations for Exegistics.

As coronavirus infections surge in the United States, demand for testing is skyrocketing. The country continues to face a shortage of testing kits and equipment. For organizations like BASE10, delivering their products quickly and efficiently is not only critical for their business, it is mission critical for their healthcare clients who need to ensure their workforce is healthy and able to fight on the frontlines.

“This is an example of what a true partnership looks like,” adds Bilden. “BASE10 is the sales engine and we are the delivery system. This is how it should be. We free up their team to focus on scaling their business to meet the growing demand in the market. Through our staffing division, Exegistics Resource Solutions, we have the people power to fill orders quickly and efficiently and keep up with their pace.”

Their transparency, technology and pricing structure enables us to keep our costs down and provide affordable, reliable medical testing kits to our healthcare clients.”
