"We noticed needless yearly product markups by the main supplier to our laboratory, while Mercedes Scientific’s prices remained stable and reasonable. I emailed the Mercedes team, and after sharing our supplies list, they went through every single item in a thorough pricing comparison. After we analyzed the numbers, the potential savings were astonishing, so the choice was easy. Mercedes helped our lab lower expenses at absolutely no expense to quality and service."

Beyond the budget - what you really get back

more-than

More than money

  • Time back in your day, with no more hours lost comparing prices for specific items across suppliers.

  • More mental bandwidth, with less pervasive stress about staying under budget.

  • Career leverage for the next step, because you’re a leader who finds solutions, not just cuts costs.

  • Supply chain security by discovering backup suppliers before you need them.
your-life-1

Your life outside work improves too(it’s a bold claim, but it’s true!)

  • Less budget anxiety following you home.

  • Fewer emergency supply issues eating into your evenings or weekends.

  • And you’re more present with your family instead of worrying about work!

Your financial responsibility is real

Your job is as much about financial management as it is about science.

Leadership evaluates you on budget control just as much as quality metrics. When you find substantial savings without disrupting quality standards or processes, they notice (and if they don’t, make sure you report on it in your next performance review!).
Your Care Concierge gives you…

Clear data to justify purchase decisions.

Concrete savings to report in your performance review.

Leverage when negotiating for other resources.


Get pricing. Not pressure.

Your Care Concierge is completely risk-free.

Mask Group 78

Analytical

Filter paper, syringe filters, pipettes, devices, heating and cooling equipment.

Questions about your Care Concierge?

How long until I get my report?

Typically 3 business days. Sometimes 4. And if it’s going to be longer (extremely rare), we’ll let you know so you aren’t waiting on the edge of your seat.


Is there a minimum order requirement?

Nope. You can use every saving opportunity we identify, or you can use none. You can place a test order to evaluate your experience with us. You can ask for samples. We want to make your due diligence easy so we can work together for a long time. Whether it’s on one product line or 10.


How detailed is the analysis?

You'll get exact SKUs, pricing, and specs for each alternative we recommend.


Will switching disrupt our operations?

No. We identify direct equivalents that work with your existing protocols and equipment. You won’t have to build any new SOPs with the alternatives we provide.


What if I only want to take you up on a few items?

That's completely fine. Many customers start with a few key items and expand over time.


Is my supply list information kept confidential? Who sees it?

It’s your supply list. We have no right to share it with anyone. The sales rep assigned to your account (who will be your rep for the next 10 years) keeps your supply list confidential.


What format does my supply list need to be in? What if it's incomplete?

However you keep your supply list is fine with us. Most submit a spreadsheet because most keep it that way themselves. But we’ll take a picture of the scribbles in your notebook if that’s easiest for you. We’ll take a list of typed-out product names in the form at the top of this page. We’ll take a voice note you send us on WhatsApp!


Is there a fee for this service if we don't purchase anything?

No. We hope you’ll choose to work with us. But there is no pretext to this offer of help.


Will this put me on an aggressive sales call list?

Also, no. Nobody makes friends by being obnoxious and aggressive.
