The SARS-CoV-2 virus and ensuing global pandemic has put all of healthcare on its heels for almost the entire year and will continue to do so well into 2021. In this exciting and thought-provoking session, our COVID-19 expert Ben Locwin will cover a retrospective of what we’ve learned, and maybe more importantly – what we should have known, and how the pandemic situation has been one to leverage as a potential advantage, and not a reason to throw up our arms in defeat.

How long will this last? Evolving the supply chain toward a guaranteed future
Leveraging ‘Black Swan’ situations to improve the future of healthcare and patient centricity
Balancing your production needs with your available inventory in the most cost-effective manner with production planning and scheduling
Best practices in managing and executing your cold supply chain to optimize distribution performance
Developing a sustainable serialization strategy to optimize your supply chain processes and strategies for drug anti-counterfeiting

Embracing and Enabling Digital Innovation in Global Supply Chains for New Modalities in Pharmaceutical Operations:
Reshape the way we think about supply chains as a result of new innovative therapies in the pharmaceutical industry (i.e., Biologics, Cell & Gene Therapies)
Embracing & enabling digital innovation within supply chains will become critical for global manufacturing and supply networks to ensure safe, reliable, and efficient supply of these therapies to our patients.
We present specific use cases of how advanced analytics coupled with visualization tools & digital platforms (e.g., RPA, SAP Leonardo, QliK ) are utilized to optimize supply chains for these therapeutic modalities, enhancing efficiency and reliability of supply.
