ENGLISHTOWN, NJ—Henry Schein has announced that it has contracted with Nexus Data Services to acquire and help maintain product level data along with digital assets. This partnership puts Henry Schein at the forefront of technological advancements in the marketplace and continues their longstanding tradition of providing excellent service.
A key strategic initiative for Henry Schein is to enhance their product-level data for use in multiple sales channels such as web and print. To achieve this goal, Henry Schein entered into a relationship with Nexus Data Services as their preferred data collection partner. Nexus Data Services provides a centralized dental product database that includes marketing attributes and digital assets.  Additionally, they provide data quality and normalization standards to help ensure data accuracy and uniformity. All of these services improve Henry Schein’s ability to position and sell products through multiple channels.

“Henry Schein and Nexus Data Services teaming up is exciting for all parties involved, including the hundreds of manufacturers partnered with Henry Schein,” said Frank Del Valle, VP Data Operations at Nexus Data Services. “In addition to streamlining Henry Schein’s data initiative, we’ll also help Henry Schein’s partners become more efficient in communicating with all of their dealers by enrolling them into our DataEZ program. This program allows a manufacturer to send their product data out once, and have it sent to all of their distribution partners in whichever format is required by each dealer.”
