SharpMed incorporates 3 account based business options:

1. Ad-Hoc Accounts – Inbound HCRW service requests:
This is when New or Account based customers phone our Central Help Desk (0860 78 34 66) and request the supply of HCRW services on an ad-hoc basis.

It is the primary business objective of SharpMed to convert all of its account base customers into fixed service frequency contracts which will limit the service frequency to not longer than 30 days apart, in order to meet the legal requirements of the National Environmental Management: Waste Act. (Act 59 of 2008).

2. Contractual Accounts - Fixed Service Frequency Structure:
This is when SharpMed has brokered a contractual service schedule with a customer on a pre-determined, fixed service frequency.

The above objective will ensure the timeous and controlled delivery of Consumable Goods and HCRW Receptacles, the simultaneous collection and subsequent disposal of HCRW in the broad spectrum, and will further allow for proper volume forecasting and economic disposal planning by associated treatment / disposal facilities.

3. Rental Contracts - Rental / Re-usable Items:
This refers to rental items related to Nappi-Waste receptacles & re-usable HCRW Containers, which offer a full product maintenance regime at a fixed monthly cost. This is a no mess no fuss service solution, which can be tailor made to meet a clients individual needs.
SharpMed lives up to its Beyond Health Care Waste Compliance motto, by tailor-making service solutions for their clientele.

From a costing perspective, three price models are on offer:

The Comprehensive Price Matrix:
With this price structure, the item price includes the complete service spectrum from product supply, delivery, and subsequent pick-up, including the documenting and transporting of the waste to an authorised & permitted destruction facility, and rendering the client with a safe waste disposal certificate after final landfill. Thus an all inclusive price per each product, which offers client a no fuss solution, and is generally very popular with lower volume clients.

The Price per Container and Kilogram (PpCKg):
This price model seeks to offer an advantage to high volume clients. Each container is sold at a unit cost, and based on the anticipated waste volumes is charged a price per kilogram to document and safely destroy the waste materials. A Transport Levy is then calculated based on the required frequency of scheduled waste pick-ups.

The Rental option:
This product and price structure is aimed at the low volume client, in the Metropolitan areas, as it allows for a fixed price per product, which is perpetually exchanged on a fixed service structure. These re-usable / refillable products are rented to clients on a contractual basis.
