Track A Outsourcing & Inventory Visibility
14:40 - 15:20 Inventory Visibility: Driving The Evolution Of The Medical Device Supply Chain
Supply chains in the medical device industry are evolving. Manufacturers are in the process of shifting from a centralized distribution model to one where product is closer to the point of sale through partnerships with third-party logistics providers (3PLs). The key is to institute a robust tracking system that enables the manufacturer to leverage a comprehensive yet complex network with global visibility, real-time communications, and sophisticated functionality. The benefits of this advanced supply chain fall into two columns: financial and operational gains for the manufacturer and significant advantages to healthcare providers and their patients.
What prevented this from happening sooner?
-Limited software solutions to provide supply chain visibility
-Industry is slow to evolve
-Insourcing was rampant
-3PLs were focused on centralized pick and ship
-ERP/WMS systems were unable to support model
Why Now?
-Technology has arrived
-3PLs have realized that to win pick and ship they must provide value added services as well
oReturns
oLoaners
oIn hospital data capture
oDecentralized operations
-Supply Chain account for too much of COGS
-Distribution leadership is becoming more valued Where are we going?
-End to End visibility of inventory across OEMs, 3PLs, and Hospitals
-Real time transactional data capture that drives actions
-Replenishment in hours not days
-Sales data in real time
-Reduction of trunk stock
-Elimination of inventory manager “Sales Reps”
-Tripling turns rates
