Health disasters happen. What if hospitals stock out of life-saving antidotes because of an active ingredient shortage, a sourcing contamination, or a production failure? These real challenges make supply chain IT critical, especially in an industry already marked by high supplier variability, strict fulfillment requirements, and tight expiration constraints.

From there, powerful analytics derive optimal order quantities, production schedules, safety stock levels, and multi-echelon warehouse assignments. Additional capabilities, whether for demand planning, inventory optimization, or supply chain integration, are designed to help mitigate the effects of supply-demand volatility and ensure the safest and most profitable delivery of critical products.
