With the growing concerns pertaining to healthcare treatments, the pharmaceutical suppliers have witnessed a promising growth over the past few years. Moreover, the pharma companies are expected to witness considerable growth, owing to an ageing population, changing lifestyles, and unhealthy eating habits. However, with these rising customer expectations, the commercial environment is getting harsher with customers looking for cost constraints in the pharmaceutical products offered. Moreover, inventory management is becoming a major concern for the companies in the pharmaceutical industry. While the pharma companies can’t risk drug shortages due to lack of inventory visibility, they also never want to incur the costs of overstock that would negatively impact productivity and the patient experience. Thus, to address these challenges and enhance production capabilities, organizations are looking to devise an inventory management solution.
