Those who can best benefit from the new GoldSeal parts offerings include clinical engineers and professionals in health care technology management, especially in “larger, more mature clinical engineering organizations” who will be able to make use of both new and GoldSeal parts as they balance cost and criticality issues.
One reason that GoldSeal parts will be competitive in the used space, according to Shrawder, is because GE is using “proprietary testing methods designed by GE engineers to validate GoldSeal parts, including MR coils and X-ray tubes” to ensure that they “meet original specifications and are compatible with the GE system revision they were designed for.”
Another benefit is that the parts are validated in an ISO 13485 certified process to ensure quality and performance.
These processes have evolved over time. “We have been using refurbished GE parts with success for many years,” Shrawder pointed out, adding that GoldSeal parts “combine OEM quality with value.”
