INSIGHT INTO ACTION
CASE STUDY: HEALTHCARE
KPIs focused on GDP compliance and transit time are linked with suppliers’ performance to provide analytical and measurable data. Deliveries are scheduled using live data to improve response times, and more effectively manage and implement contingencies at supplier level across all modes of transport. This allows a higher degree of flexibility within the supply chain, increasing our customer’s adaptability whilst achieving improved productivity by dovetailing demand and production schedules to best support asset plans. We have made every stage of our customer’s international supply chain visible, to provide data access across both local and global regions. This has provided consolidation opportunities within both our customer’s own operation and throughout the Yusen healthcare network, with cross-docking
at strategic GDP compliant locations for onward distribution. By optimising lower volume shipments, such as biopharmaceuticals, through maximised load-fills we have reduced transportation costs and improved efficiencies. Through supply chain collaboration, all data can be accessed and viewed on a single secure online platform from anywhere in the world, including quality compliance data, stock data, trends, transportation costs, unit costs, and KPIs. This brings closer alignment of stock supply and demand to create the optimal solution, and identifies further opportunities for synergies and optimisation. Reductions in loss, damage and waste have provided real cost savings for our customer. This is alongside a dynamic supply chain execution, improving our customer’s capability to respond and
adapt to potential disruptions.
Through our solution, we facilite data driven decisions to deliver the most cost-effective optimised solution whilst always maintaining supply. Above all, we offer our customer a bespoke service specifically tailored for a healthcare client, rather than a suite of generic products, always keeping the end-patient at the heart of the operation.
