Every new practicebrings itsown contracts.
Dental, veterinary and physician practice platforms grow by acquisition, and every practice arrives with its own suppliers, software, phones and marketing. We consolidate the vendor base as the platform grows, and tell deal teams what they are buying before close.
Where it goes wrong.
A platform that adds practices quickly can end up with dozens of versions of the same contract: supply, labs, practice management software, imaging, phones and local marketing, each on its own terms and renewal date.
The cheapest time to fix a contract is at acquisition. After that, every one is a separate renewal to fight.
Clinical supply and labs
Practice-level pricing that never moved to platform terms.
Practice management and imaging software
Multiple systems, per-location licenses and long terms.
Phones, internet and call handling
Per-site carriers and answering services.
Local marketing and lead sources
Agencies and lead vendors inherited with each practice.
Insurance brokers and benefits
Brokers and plans that never consolidated.
Equipment service
Service contracts on imaging and clinical equipment.
How we help
The same approach as every engagement: a free call, a Second Opinion or a Diagnostic to size it, then the work run to the P&L.

Dental, vet and physician roll-ups: where vendor cost leaks
Every acquired practice brings its own supply account, lab, software, phones and agency. Integrating vendors at acquisition is the cheapest fix there is.
Vendor diligence on a dental or vet platform: a checklist
What deal teams should request on the vendor base of a dental or veterinary platform, and why each item changes the model.
Straight answers.
When should a platform consolidate vendors?
At acquisition. Each practice moved onto platform contracts in its first 90 days is one fewer renewal to fight later.
Do you get involved in clinical supply decisions?
Clinicians decide what gets used. We negotiate what it costs and how it is contracted.
Can you help during diligence on a platform?
Yes. A Deal Vendor Review reads the vendor base during exclusivity and turns it into deal model inputs and a 100-day plan.
