The Right Place identifies local supply chain for development of COVID-19 testing kits
The Right Place team learned the local healthcare system was experiencing a major shortage of nasal swabs for COVID-19 test kits. We immediately identified one of our MiDevice member companies that might have the capabilities to fulfill the request: Keystone Solutions Group.
The Right Place team learned the local healthcare system was experiencing a major shortage of nasal swabs for COVID-19 test kits. We immediately identified one of our MiDevice member companies that might have the capabilities to fulfill the request: Keystone Solutions Group. We reached out to the owner of Keystone, Jim Medsker, on a Saturday and he quickly answered the call to begin development of the swabs. He had specifications by the end of the day. Keystone Solutions Group has nearly completed the entire supply chain needed to manufacture the kits, and we expect to see them in production for West Michigan health care systems soon.
