ASHES and ALM announce Collegial Pricing Agreement
January 23, 2008
Chicago: The American Society for Healthcare Environmental Services (ASHES) and the Association for Linen Management (ALM) announced today a pricing program for the benefit of members in both organizations. According to the agreement, ALM and ASHES will offer special discounted pricing levels for products and services to members of the other organization. This agreement will allow members of ALM to purchase products and services offered by ASHES at a discounted rate and vise versa.
"We hope to enhance benefits to our members and create synergy between healthcare environmental services and linen management," said Jim Thacker, ALM's Executive Director. Patti Costello, ASHES Executive Director, stated that "given the fact that over 63 percent of our members have responsibility for linen distribution and over 43 percent are responsible for processing the textiles, ASHES saw an opportunity to join forces and maximize the opportunity for our members."
ASHES and ALM are currently developing a plan for the successful implementation of this agreement. Further information will be available soon at www.ashes.org and www.almnet.org.
