This Standard Pathology Storage System is engineered to be that province-wide solution. As a modular, high-density steel system for both slides and blocks, available factory direct, it provides a unified, high-quality, and cost-effective archiving foundation for every AHS facility, from large urban hospitals to regional diagnostic centers.
The Case for System-Wide Standardization
Implementing a single, optimized storage system across a health authority delivers transformative benefits:
Operational Efficiency: Technologists and pathologists moving between facilities encounter the same intuitive, reliable storage system, reducing training time and minimizing errors.
Simplified Procurement & Logistics: Bulk procurement of standardized modules simplifies budgeting, reduces administrative overhead, and ensures spare parts compatibility.
Optimized Space Planning: Architects and lab planners can design spaces using the known, modular footprints of these cabinets, leading to more efficient and future-proof facility layouts.
Guaranteed Quality & Safety: A single, high-quality standard ensures every sample across the province is stored with the same level of security and protection, mitigating risk.
The Pillars of Our AHS-Focused System
This system is built on three core pillars that directly address the needs of a large, distributed health service:
1. True Modularity for Flexible Deployment:
The system is composed of interchangeable modules. A regional lab might start with a single Four-Section Splicing Cabinet. A large teaching hospital can deploy walls of stacked 18-Drawer Slide Cabinets alongside rows of 6-Drawer Block Cabinets. Each module shares complementary dimensions and design language, allowing for any combination of slide and block storage within the same unified framework.2. High-Density Steel Construction for Long-Term Value:
Built from heavy-gauge, cold-rolled steel with a durable epoxy powder coat, this furniture is an investment designed to last decades. The high-density design stores more specimens in less space, a critical factor in maximizing the utility of every square foot in AHS facilities. The robust construction minimizes lifetime maintenance and replacement costs.3. The Factory Direct Advantage for AHS:
Eliminating intermediaries provides significant advantages for a major public sector buyer:
Substantial Cost Savings: Direct pricing maximizes the value of public funds.
Supply Chain Control & Reliability: Direct communication with the factory ensures accurate lead times and the ability to manage large, phased deliveries across the province.
Direct Technical Support & Customization: AHS can work directly with our engineers to discuss potential minor standard modifications (e.g., a standard AHS color or label format) that would benefit the entire network.
System Specifications & Configuration Matrix
The table below illustrates how the modular system can be configured to meet diverse needs within the AHS network.
Module Type Primary Function Standard External Dimensions (HxWxD) Key Feature Example AHS Use Case High-Capacity Slide Module Microscope Slide Filing H1700 x W515 x D540mm (18-drawer) Lockable, maximum capacity for core lab archives. Central pathology department in major hospitals (FMC, U of A). Standard Slide & Block Module Combined Storage Unit H1440 x W515 x D480mm (4-section) Integrated base, can be configured for slides or blocks. Regional hospital laboratory requiring versatile storage. Dedicated Block Module Paraffin Block Storage H425 x W515 x D480mm (6-drawer) Heavy-duty drawers for tissue blocks. High-volume biopsy service or cancer research biobank. Stackable Base Module Expansion & Flexibility Varies (e.g., H360 x W515 x D480mm) Uniform footprint for stacking any module type. Incremental expansion in growing community health labs. Implementation Pathway for a Province-Wide Standard
Assessment & Pilot: AHS could begin by piloting the system in one high-volume lab to validate performance, ergonomics, and user satisfaction.
Development of AHS Specifications: Based on pilot feedback, finalize standard module choices, optional features (e.g., lock type, label color), and a preferred color from our standard palette.
Phased Roll-Out: Implement the system across the province in phases, prioritizing facilities with urgent need or those undergoing renovation. The modular nature allows each site’s storage to be tailored to its specific volume and space.
Ongoing Support & Replenishment: As a factory direct partner, we can establish a framework agreement to supply additional modules as AHS grows, ensuring the standard is maintained for years to come.
Building a Cohesive Provincial Infrastructure
This Standard Pathology Storage System offers Alberta Health Services more than just cabinets; it offers a strategic opportunity to build a cohesive, high-quality, and cost-effective provincial infrastructure for specimen management. By adopting a single, superior modular system, AHS can elevate the standard of care, achieve significant operational efficiencies, and make a wise long-term investment in the physical backbone of its diagnostic and research services.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. As a public health authority, what procurement mechanisms can we use?
We are experienced in working with public sector procurement, including tenders, requests for proposal (RFPs), and standing offers. We can provide all necessary documentation, including detailed specifications, compliance statements, and references to facilitate a smooth procurement process.2. Can you accommodate the need for bilingual (English/French) labeling on units for certain facilities?
Yes. We can integrate bilingual instructional labels or signage as part of the standard specification. Customization of label holders or inserts is a straightforward process we can manage at the factory.3. What support do you provide for installation and after-sales service across a large province?
We deliver fully assembled, ready-to-use cabinets. For large orders, we can coordinate with third-party logistics and installation partners in Alberta. Our warranty covers manufacturing defects, and we maintain a stock of common spare parts (drawer slides, handles) for quick shipment if ever required.
