Challenge 1
When vendor coverage still isn't enough.
When vendor coverage still isn't enough.
OUR SOLUTION
Price monitoring daily across vendors.
Price monitoring daily across vendors.
Unlike many clinics, Santa Monica Dermatology already worked with multiple vendors and compared prices across vendor sites. However, these checks were done annually while supply prices changed daily. Despite broad vendor access, the team still missed savings and lacked real-time visibility into market pricing.
Grapevine provided continuous price monitoring across their existing vendors, giving the team real-time visibility into pricing changes. By surfacing the best available options at the moment of purchase, Grapevine helped unlock ongoing savings without switching vendors or adding manual work.

When Lidocaine shortages hit without warning.
When Lidocaine shortages hit without warning.
OUR SOLUTION
Smart rerouting,
avoid backorders.
Smart rerouting, avoid backorders.
In 2024, Santa Monica Dermatology faced sudden lidocaine shortages across injections and patches due to manufacturing issues and rising demand. Despite working with multiple vendors, new outreach resulted in zero allocations, leaving the clinic without reliable backups and causing treatment delays.
Grapevine helped them avoid backorders by immediately identifying available supply across vendors in real time and routing orders to options with active inventory. This allowed the clinic to continue treatments without disruption, even as shortages and allocation limits persisted.

Like many clinics, they knew overspending was happening but couldn’t find a tool that actually solved it. They even explored platforms costing up to $30K upfront, only to realize they still didn’t deliver meaningful savings.
