“Optimizing courier networks is imperative to not only reduce costs, but also improve operational efficiency, enhance brand reputation, and ultimately improve the reliability and speed of deliveries,” said Eric McGlade.
This presentation is crucial for health systems with multiple courier contracts across departments. Whether you’re the head of pharmacy operations looking for carrier and courier combinations for high-value drug deliveries, or a supply chain operations leader looking to streamline product distribution to non-acute entities or serve any role that manages courier relationships, this session will offer invaluable insights to enhance your operations.
