Robust End-to-End Management & Control of Last Mile
International Medical Corps has designed, developed, and successfully deployed a pioneering interoperable software to manage the last mile of the pharmaceutical supply chain. The Pharmaceutical Information Management System (PIMS) is a customizable, flexible, and fully integrated pharma supply chain automation system that can help various industries maximize operational eciency, better manage costs of operations, and provide a higher optimal level of patient care.
PIMS helps frontline health workers provide quality health service through applying principles of rational use of medicines, pharmacovigilance and pharmacoeconomic. The amalgamation of real-time data in the software enables supervisors and managers to monitor stock and replenish health facilities in near real time. The application also provides pharmacists with actionable alerts, letting them know that stock is nearing expiration, as well as overstock and understock scenarios making the resupply process simple and ecient. The software can function in a cloud environment or a local environment – making it flexible and functionally diverse in humanitarian contexts. It is built to work oine, allowing the software to operate in challenging environments with limited infrastructures.
The software is designed to capture key data at every level of the last mile of the supply chain, empowering clients to make data-driven decisions and better planning. It provides unparalleled visibility, analytics, and optimization of pharmaceutical supply chain management, both in desktop and mobile versions. It drastically reduces administrative and support costs by improving accuracy, limiting human errors and maximizing resources. The application flags duplication of services, thereby reducing patient care costs and lowering operating margins. These eciencies are transferred directly back to beneficiaries.
