"international sourcing specialist” / “medical device sourcing."
Find, evaluate, and close reliable suppliers for oxygen therapy equipment and consumables on two fronts:
China: basic equipment and consumables (cylinders, masks, cannulas).
USA: more complex equipment (stationary and portable concentrators).
⸻
Product families (high priority)
• Oxygen cylinders (various sizes, valves/regulators if applicable) – China
• Disposable consumables: masks, nasal cannulas, tubing/accessories – China
• Stationary concentrators – USA
• Portable oxygen concentrators (POC) – USA
⸻
Scope of required service
The service provider (consultant/agency) must deliver:
A. Identification and shortlisting
• Long list (10–20) and short list (3–5) per product family.
• Confirmation of whether suppliers are actual manufacturers vs. traders (especially in China).
B. Documentation and quality validation
• Verifiable evidence of ISO 13485 (highly desirable for medical devices).
• Relevant product certificates/registrations as applicable (e.g., FDA/510(k) in the USA for concentrators, if required, or at least regulatory traceability).
• Risk report: history of recalls/warnings (USA) and red flags (China).
• Warranty policies, support, spare parts, and response times (critical for concentrators).
C. RFQ/RFP + comparison
• Comparable quotations (Incoterms, MOQ, lead time, packaging, shelf life, payment terms).
• Comparative matrix including: total price, quality, certifications, timelines, warranty, references.
D. Samples and testing
• Sample management for consumables.
• For concentrators: verification of key specs (flow, purity, noise, consumption, lifespan hours, alarms, maintenance) and warranty terms.
E. Negotiation and closing
• Negotiation of price, terms, penalties for quality/time, and warranty/support agreements.
• Final recommendation per product family (with justification).
⸻
Deliverables
• Final report per product family + comparative matrix (Excel/Sheets).
• Folder with verified documentation for each finalist.
• List of detected “red flags.”
• Supplier recommendation(s) and initial purchasing plan.
