Pharmaceutical logistics is a pharmaceutical business
This concept holds that the so-called pharmaceutical logistics is the pharmaceutical business, which is the pharmaceutical business enterprise in the field of pharmaceutical circulation. Because they think pharmaceutical commercial enterprises in the downstream of the supply chain, is the dominant member of the medicine marketing channels, to undertake the main task of the pharmaceutical distribution flow, therefore they is the executor of the logistics.
Pharmaceutical logistics is drug delivery
There is also the idea that a few warehouses equipped with dozens of freight trucks are called logistics, and pharmaceutical logistics is the distribution of medicines. In fact, distribution and transportation are only a specific link of pharmaceutical logistics. In addition, the pharmaceutical logistics also includes the acceptance, storage, sorting and other aspects of drug delivery and distribution.
Others believe that pharmaceutical logistics is equipped with imported equipment and advanced systems. Therefore, some medical enterprises, regardless of the actual situation, can use the cheap manual sorting, but it will pay a huge cost to introduce advanced logistics sorting equipment.
Small and medium-sized enterprises need not and cannot integrate logistics
According to industry statistics, there are 166,500 pharmaceutical wholesale enterprises in China, nearly 140,000 retail enterprises, 120,000 retail pharmacies nationwide, and more than 6,300 drug manufacturers. More than 95% of these companies are small and medium-sized pharmaceutical enterprises, at the same time do not see any point in small and medium-sized pharmaceutical enterprise also is unable to carry out the logistics integration in the development of medical logistics in our country at present is a big misunderstanding. On although small and medium-sized pharmaceutical enterprise investment cannot be compared with large enterprises, to become a leader in supply chain integration, but as a part of the current medical supply system, any one of the supply chain optimization projects cannot leave this link. Pharmaceutical supply chain integration in China gradually be taken seriously in the future, no one in the supply chain members also hope to have such a strategic partner involved in the project, in order to explore the path to success. In fact, small and medium-sized pharmaceutical enterprises can carry out logistics integration on two levels to improve logistics service level and reduce logistics costs. First, at the operational level, we actively optimized the internal operation process to improve efficiency and customer service level, and explored the cooperation model with third-party pharmaceutical logistics enterprises to achieve cost reduction; The second is to actively participate in the supply chain integration of large enterprises under the strategic level, and the cost reduction and service improvement are obtained from the upstream and downstream sectors.
Equipment and technology determine competitiveness
Think of logistics equipment, advanced technology, the more the more beneficial to strengthen corporate competitiveness, can attract more customers and strategic partners, in the construction of logistics project technology bring publicity, and despise the consistency of system application, another myth is the current domestic medical logistics investment. The immediate consequence of this understanding is that logistics, informationization and automation are not "tailoring" for themselves, which do not match existing business scale and management level. In fact, as a system engineering, logistics efficiency and service level are not determined by the most powerful parts of the system, but by the weakest link. The high requirement and high input of the single technology link can not significantly improve the performance of the whole logistics system. From strategic investors, business partners, or downstream of the customer's point of view, more attention is the reliability of the whole logistics system, integrity, and the level of logistics services, rather than the logistics equipment, advanced technology level. China's medical logistics is the traditional extensive changes to the modernization of an informational, there are policies and regulations, business processes, business model, concepts, software development, and personnel that several obstacles, the main problem is not solved, advanced equipment and technology to also useless.
