INSIGHT INTO ACTION
CASE STUDY: HEALTHCARE
Through integration with our full track and trace software, VISIONi, shipments can be GPS tracked and temperature monitored at every stage. Constant monitoring identifies any potential issues in real-time. This allows mitigation strategies to be immediately implemented - addressing and resolving the cause of the problem as quickly as possible. Routes are meticulously planned according to the latest regional and global security intelligence, and any deviations to routes are alerted of immediately with a clear process of escalation. High security features across our vehicle fleet is coupled with intensive driver training, to further minimise the risk of cargo theft and safeguard our drivers. Through our significant investments in security measures, 99.99% of our shipments are completed without issue. With stolen
pharmaceuticals often re-entering the legal market, the risks of compromised goods are passed on to end patients unknowingly. For our customer, minimising the number of freight issues has resulted in immediate benefits by reducing product losses. This has, in turn, increased the overall on time in full (OTIF) performance of the operation, which is now at an industry leading 99.5%. This has been achieved by improving control of shipment movements through enhanced visibility, providing accurate and real-time data for better informed decisions and ongoing improvement strategies. Vehicle dwell time has been significantly reduced at both the point of collection and delivery. Pre-emptive alerts keep shipments on track and enable schedules to be pre-planned
around arrival times. By keeping shipments to schedule, the flow of goods is maintained and delays are minimised. This has contributed to our outstanding service level that has delivered 99.9% of cold-chain shipments with no temperature deviations. Through proactive monitoring and analysing, potential deviations are identified and mitigated before they reach the point of failure - upholding the integrity of both the goods and our customer’s brand. Through our Control Tower solution, we have brought complete transparency to our customer’s end-to-end supply chain resulting in improved efficiencies, higher delivery performances and fewer product losses. Giving our customer the knowledge that end patients’ welfare is always at the heart of their operation.
