Insight Shouldice

History
Dr. Edward Earle Shouldice graduated from the
University of Toronto in 1916.
During World War II, he was called to serve on the
Medical Examining Board.
Dr. Shouldice, a major in the army, found that
many young men willing to serve their country had
to be denied enlistment. These men needed surgical
treatment to repair their hernias before they could
be pronounced physically fit for military training.

Unique Operating Method


There is no use of foreign bodies such as synthetic screens or
meshes, except in extremely rare cases where there has been
destruction of the tissue usually due to previous surgery.
The vast majority of our (their) hernia repairs are done with a
sedative (sleeping pill), analgesic (pain relief pill) and local
anesthesia. If necessary, additional medication is administered.

The youngest patient to date was a child of 4 months, while the


oldest was a man of 100 years.

concept

Marketing Strategy of Shouldice


The three important aspects of services marketing triangle are
the employees, customers and the company itself.
Shouldice keeps its staff happy through profit sharing policy,
wherein the employees are paid a part of the profit in addition
to their fixed salaries.

Company

This sharing is done based on their contribution towards the


success of the firm. This encourages them to work hard and
put in more efforts. From the management point of view, they
have given their staff a lesser working load and weekends off.

External
marketing

This enables people to spend time with their family and this in
term keeps them contented and in the long run reduces the
attrition rate
Internal
This is internal marketing for the company.

Problem
Increase Capacity
Shouldice is operating at its best operating level for a service company
with limited flexibility in its plant, a specialized work force but are failing to
meet all the demand for its chosen market niche. Adding additional
capacity to meet the unmet market need may upset the existing work
force and lower service quality. Failing to meet the market demand may
invite competition that could eventually cause Shouldice to loss market
share and end up with excess capacity.

Problem Justification
There is limited operating facts presented in the case so assumptions
have made based on the information that was presented.
It is assumed that they are operating at the best operating level
because the way the case describes how efficiently the hospital is ran and
how the patients appear to be pleased with there treatment

Retain the culture and environment
Disadvantages
Require to schedule doctors to the full capacity of five days per
week

room)
Disruption during construction

Advantages
New location close to the customers, say USA
Improve its competitive position and increase its profits
Operate in a less restrictive environment
New Opportunities for existing personnel
Transfer of knowledge and expertise to the new facilities
Disadvantages
Requires a significant investment.
Control of quality
It is difficult to create the same culture and atmosphere
Potential competition with the existing facility
