Supply chain network optimization

project background

After regulatory changes, a pharmaceutical company needed to redesign its supply chain, with the number of direct customers increasing from 2 to 2,000. The existing network could not meet the delivery requirements for vaccines, especially in terms of temperature control and timeliness.

Customer pain points

   • The number of customers has increased, leading to a sharp increase in pressure.

   • The vaccine needs to be delivered within 48 hours.

   • Logistics is not optimized, resulting in low efficiency.

Solution

   • OAT redesigns the supply chain using mathematical optimization techniques.

   • Optimize the number and location of distribution centers based on delivery time, service level, and cost.

   • Simulated over 200 scenarios to aid in data-driven decision-making.

Project effectiveness

✔ Faster response to market changes and strategic planning.

✔ Enhanced flexibility for adapting to future changes.

✔ Reduce supply chain costs and enhance efficiency.

✔ The model has been extended to other regions, including Russia, Japan, and India.
