Del Medical wins major government tender in Mexico

The Mexican Government plans to install six Apollo Systems for the Mexico City Government Health Services, four Digital Apollo Systems for the ISSSTE (Government Workers Health and Social Institute) and eight Del RAD Systems for the ISEM (Health Services for the State of Mexico).

The Apollo units were manufactured by Villa Sistemi Medicali in Italy and were shipped to Mexico in December 2008.

Del said that its seamless product specifications, local service, expedient delivery times and comprehensive warranty were key factors in Mexico’s decision to award the tender. Local support services are to be provided by Del’s in-country dealer Suministro para Uso Medico y Hospitalario (SMH).

Dennis Runyan, vice president of global sales and marketing at Del Medical, said: Our relationship with SMH extends the geographic reach of our digital radiography portfolio and capabilities to our global customers like the Mexican government. Our global dealers are chosen carefully as we rely on them to provide the same quality and support that our customers have grown to expect over the last 80 years of being in business.
