Project Background
Company Z is a medium-sized pharmaceutical product distributor and wholesaler in Singapore who caters to various healthcare institutes and clinics. Effective management of the supply chain and sales strategies is particularly important for Company Z as it deals primarily with large volume and high-value products at a rapid pace. Hence, even the smallest miscalculation in strategic management would result in significant losses. That said, there is huge potential for insights from the wealth of information that can be found in the sales data.
Motivation & Objective
Effective supply chain management is particularly in the pharmaceutical industry as it deals with high volume, high value products at a rapid pace where supply chain failures may prove detrimental. There is undisputedly huge potential for insights from the wealth of information that supply chains generate, as well as from qualitative data in the form of managerial experience. While supply chain management is an area with great potential for the application of big data analytics, few firms have fully embraced it in the region. As analytics is increasingly adopted by organisations, it is our aim to apply big data analytics to an established pharmaceutical organisation’s wholesaling and distribution practices, thereby observing the benefits gained and learning more about the challenges faced in maintaining an effective and efficient supply chain.
