Gallagher announces strategic partnership with Automed.

 

There’s a new strategic partnership between Automed and Gallagher in animal management. Both are excited about the future of the next generation of animal management and strategic positioning in the marketplace. “Partnering with Automed makes good business sense to both companies. The roadmap we’re building to own an eco-system of products and services that scale technologically is a game-changer,” says Sean O’Hare, VP Sales and Marketing at Gallagher.

Automed is one of the most advanced platforms in capturing records for livestock treatments and inventory transactions in a tamper-proof environment. The Automed device paired with Gallagher’s scale head, load bars mean farmers and ranchers will achieve a more significant return-on-investment of the management practices. “This partnership with Gallagher will bring Automed to more producers across North America, leveraging Automed’s cutting edge technology with Gallagher’s industry-leading distribution and service. We couldn’t be happier with the partnership.” David Edwards.

Gallagher is committed to making life easier and more profitable while surpassing both animal welfare and environmental ideals. Automed helps deliver on that commitment. “Automed is creating a new standard in animal medication delivery,” says O’Hare.

No matter the size of your operation, medication type, or delivery frequency, the Automed device can be configured to suit your needs.

Put trust back into your operation with weight-based dosing and save up to 21% in medication when using Automed for accurate weight-based dosing. Every dose delivered is automatically recorded, offering complete traceability and inventory management through the Enterprise app. The 3mL, 10mL, and 20mL adapters can be set to any dose from 0.1mL up to 100mL or more, delivering a highly accurate dose every time. Reduce administration time by 50% and eliminate up to 10% in wasted doses and inventory loss.

A case study on a commercial feedlot in the US found that in a single day of dosing 524 animals with Ivermectin and Draxxin, the producer saved up to 1,000mLs using the Automed system: resulting in $3,864 of savings! In just one day, Automed paid for itself.

O’Hare, says, “Gallagher’s end goal is to provide the leading edge in animal health systems in North America, so we are excited to have Automed as a partner. With the addition of Automed, Gallagher is now your go-to supplier for your animal health solutions when weighing and delivering medications.”

We offer fencing, weighing, data collection and watering system solutions for specific animals and applications so you can be sure you’re using the right system solution to meet your unique needs. Gallagher’s success can be credited to a customer centric approach to research and development with a strong focus on end-user needs. This philosophy is endorsed with 8% of the group’s total revenue invested in R&D annually
