Siemens Healthineers Expands U.S. Supply Chain with Strategic ‘Mega Depots’ to Combat Logistics Challenges
Siemens Healthineers is opening two new 'mega depots' in Dayton, New Jersey, and Manteca, California, to expand its U.S. parts inventory and logistics capabilities14.
The expansion will increase parts availability by nearly a third, enhancing the company's ability to respond to supply chain disruptions and demand surges17.
This move is in response to ongoing healthcare supply chain pressures, including global demand increases, severe weather, and geopolitical uncertainties17.
Siemens Healthineers is partnering with GXO, a contract logistics provider, to manage these new warehouse spaces14.
The new facilities complement Siemens Healthineers' existing depot in Memphis, Tennessee, and its network of forward stocking locations near major customers17.
The expansion aims to provide greater delivery flexibility, more delivery options for customers, and reduce environmental impact through efficient delivery4.
GXO is currently managing operations in New Jersey and plans to begin operations in California in early 2025110.
This expansion is part of a broader strategy to strengthen supply chain resilience and improve customer service in the medical technology sector7.
