How are custom procedure trays different from standard kits?

Medline offers both standard kits and custom trays. Here’s how they differ:

• Standard Kits

  • Pre-defined, commonly used surgical packs.

  • Item numbers typically begin with prefixes like DYNJ, HUD, or MNS.

  • Stock levels are managed centrally and are easier to fulfill quickly.

• Custom Procedure Trays (CPTs)

  • Built to specific hospital or surgeon requirements.

  • May include unique instruments, disposables, and medications.

  • Lead times are longer and production is tied to customer-specific contracts.

  • Availability depends on both raw materials and assembly scheduling.

👉 If you’re unsure whether a customer is asking about a standard kit or a custom tray, ask Kit. It can confirm which category the item falls into and guide you on how to check availability in SAP.
