Surgical Product Solutions

What Surgical Product Solutions does

Surgical Product Solutions (SPS) operates a B2B e-commerce marketplace for new and refurbished surgical disposables and capital equipment, headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and serving US-based hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), and other healthcare facilities. The platform functions as a two-sided secondary-market: SPS purchases surplus, unused, or near-expiry surgical inventory from facilities (offering 48-72 hour appraisals, free prepaid shipping, and net-30 payment terms) and resells name-brand product at discount through its shopsps.com storefront with a Low Price Guarantee, no minimum order, and same-day shipping. The catalog spans 14 surgical specialty categories — including anesthesia, cardiovascular, ENT, gastrointestinal, general surgery, gynecology, laparoscopy, neurology & spine, ophthalmology, orthopedic & trauma, patient care, sports medicine, surgical power, and urology — across 38,328+ SKUs sourced from 400+ manufacturers such as Ethicon, Covidien, Medtronic, Arthrex, Smith & Nephew, Karl Storz, Olympus, and ConMed. SPS also sells refurbished surgical scopes (arthroscopes, colonoscopes, cystoscopes, hysteroscopes, laparoscopes, sinus scopes) and offers a proprietary tool called Stockhawk that provides real-time inventory visibility into overstock savings opportunities. Pricing is per-unit with public list pricing on the website. The company was acquired by AA Medical in July 2024 and operates as a subsidiary within AA Medical's hospital supplies portfolio.

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Broad incumbents

• Cardinal Health Medical Products & Services: Major US distributor of medical, surgical, and laboratory supplies to hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, and clinical laboratories. Comparable because it serves identical hospital and ASC customers with surgical disposables and capital equipment, competing for the same procurement dollars through long-term contracts.
• Owens & Minor: Public medical supply distribution and healthcare logistics company serving hospitals with surgical supplies, wound care, and home health products. Comparable as a large-scale distributor competing for the same hospital supply chain, including via its Apria and Patient Direct businesses.
• McKesson Medical-Surgical: Major US medical-surgical distributor serving hospitals, physician offices, and surgery centers with surgical supplies, instruments, and equipment. Comparable as a primary competitor for the same hospital surgical supply budget, with the additional advantage of GPO contracts and broader product portfolio.
• Medline Industries: Largest privately held medical supply manufacturer and distributor in the US, supplying surgical disposables, gloves, drapes, and OR products to hospitals and ASCs through direct sales and GPO contracts. Directly comparable because it competes for the same hospital/ASC surgical supply spend, but at massive scale and through traditional distribution channels rather than a discount marketplace.

Emerging players

• Bttn: Seattle-based B2B medical supply e-commerce marketplace launched in 2021, offering discounted medical and surgical supplies to healthcare providers. Closest direct peer to SPS as a digital-first marketplace competitor pursuing the same discounted surgical disposables opportunity to hospitals and ASCs.

Direct peers

• US Med-Equip: Houston-based medical equipment rental, sales, and asset management company serving hospitals with capital equipment including ventilators, patient monitors, and surgical devices. Comparable in the refurbished/used capital equipment portion of SPS's business, particularly for surgical scopes and related devices.
• Agiliti Health: Public healthcare services company providing medical equipment management, rental, and repair services to hospitals and health systems. Comparable in the refurbished capital equipment and surgical scope servicing segment, and now expanding into broader surgical supply adjacency.
• Concordance Healthcare Solutions: US-based medical supply distributor formed from the merger of three regional distributors, serving hospitals, surgery centers, and physician offices with medical-surgical supplies and equipment. Comparable as a mid-sized competitor in surgical supply distribution targeting similar healthcare facility customers with branded disposables.
• MFI Medical Equipment: US-based reseller of new and refurbished medical equipment, including surgical tables, lights, sterilizers, and endoscopy equipment to hospitals and surgery centers. Comparable in the refurbished surgical equipment segment and discount channel positioning for healthcare facilities.
• Surplus Solutions Group: Specialty medical supply company focused on purchasing and reselling surplus, slow-moving, and overstock medical-surgical inventory from hospitals and manufacturers. Closest direct peer in the surgical disposables liquidation model that mirrors SPS's buyback-side marketplace.
