Missionpharma, a part of CFAO healthcare has revealed it's working with GoComet, an AI powered supply chain visibility platform key to their supply chain efficiency
NEWARK, N.J., July 12, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Missionpharma, a global supplier of pharmaceuticals, medical consumables, hospital equipment, and medical kits, has partnered with GoComet to revolutionise its global supply chain operations, enhancing visibility and efficiency.
This upgrade empowers Missionpharma's logistics teams to digitally negotiate freight contracts and collaborate seamlessly with their logistics service providers (LSPs), providing a comprehensive view of their global freight operations responsible for delivering medicines to over 100 million people every year.
Historically, logistics teams engaged and collaborated with individual stakeholders—suppliers, agents, LSPs, etc.—via emails and telephone calls, resulting in a slow and siloed process.
"We lacked transparency and didn't have a clear overview of who was dealing with which transporter. If someone was sick or absent, the transport could lie in that person's email without being taken care of," said Søren Grubbe, Global Head of IT & Logistics at Missionpharma, highlighting the challenges of their previous process.
Grubbe chose to partner with GoComet after evaluating different vendors in the industry, noting the system's benefits and ease of use as the most important factor behind their decision. The team's unanimous confidence in the platform allowed Missionpharma to roll it out swiftly to all stakeholders. "We got a setup that was designed to fit our business," he added.
Missionpharma's supply chain technology stack includes GoComet's three key modules – Smart Ocean Schedules, Freight Negotiation Platform, and a Control Tower Solution – allowing all stakeholders to transition from emails to a digital enabling platform for their supply chain.
The upgraded system resulted in a 5% reduction in transportation spending last year due to automated negotiations. Additionally, the team also reported a significant boost in productivity with little to no manual intervention. "We're now able to handle 20-30% more shipments with the same number of people," says Grubbe.
Furthermore, ever since it's rollout nearly two years ago, the new system has significantly enhanced Missionpharma's customer communication. They can now proactively inform customers about shipment delays, boosting customer satisfaction and trust. This proactive approach has been well-received and has strengthened their reputation for reliability and efficiency.
