Common Medical Industry Challenges

The medical industry is high-stakes. Proper storage of medications and devices has a direct impact on people’s well-being. Storage methods can affect a company’s reputation. Some of the warehouse logistics challenges medical companies face include:

Ensuring order accuracy: Seemingly small numbers can make a big difference in the health care industry. A patient taking 325 milligrams of a drug can’t receive 300 milligrams or 350 milligrams of the same medication. Pharmaceutical companies must ensure their order picking policies accurately fulfill patient orders.
Managing products: Medications expire and need to be discarded appropriately. Some medications need to be stored at certain temperatures or kept in sterile packaging. Health care companies need warehouse solutions that allow them to store and manage products under the right conditions.
Product growth and variation: Thanks to advances in medical research and technology, new drug formulations or variations regularly come onto the market. As the number of SKUs increases, companies need to keep up and manage their inventory accurately.
Regulatory requirements: The health care industry is heavily regulated. Companies need to ensure their storage and warehousing solutions abide by regulations and follow security measures.
