Healthcare Supply Chain Services
The Healthcare and
Life Sciences (HLS) industry faces business challenges unlike those
of other industries. While continuing to ensure that safe and
effective drugs are available to patients and consumers, the industry
is adapting to significant and far reaching changes. Business
models, product mixes, and trading partner relationships are all being
impacted by dynamic regulatory, economic, scientific, and demographic
forces.
A Complex Chain
The HLS supply chain
relies on many players to deliver critical products to the end consumer.
The supply chain for HLS includes several players in addition to manufacturers,
wholesalers and retailers. Other dispensing sources (such as hospitals),
return logistics providers, product/compound sourcing, laboratories
and clinical trial environments all play a part in development and distribution
of drugs.
The increasing complexity
of the supply chain is driving the need to capture, manage, share and
act on whole new classes of supply chain information.
