How does SLP handle multi‑item orders?

Multi-item medical orders — combining different kit types, ancillary supplies, or documentation packages into a single shipment — introduce picking complexity and labeling requirements that standard 3PL workflows are not designed to handle reliably. Strategic Lab Partners manages multi-item orders through SLP CONNECT-coordinated pick sequences and consolidated packing validation that confirm every item is present and correctly labeled before the shipment is sealed.

When an order includes multiple test kits, SLP ships them together in a single outbound shipment while preserving full traceability for each individual kit. Every kit retains its own unique Test ID, SKU, lot, expiration, and return label—even when they are packaged in the same box.

Our system tracks the outbound shipment as a whole and each kit within it as a separate, traceable unit. This ensures that every kit can be followed through its complete lifecycle: receipt into inventory, outbound shipment, delivery to the customer, and return to the processing lab.

This approach gives you the efficiency of consolidated shipping with the accuracy and compliance of individual kit‑level tracking.

What this prevents: delays, loss without defensible history, inventory gaps, and after-the-fact reconciliation.

SLP Advantage: Shipment‑level efficiency with kit‑level traceability—every kit stays unique, visible, and fully documented.
