Most companies have as their main objective to attract customers to make sales. For pharmaceutical and Life Science industries, which have the challenge of delivering these sales, it is even more necessary to have resources that facilitate the processes. Mostly in secondary sales for Distributors.
In today's article, we will talk a little about the benefits of using SAP Business One for Pharma and the Life Science Industry.
Pharmaceutical Industry: Market Trends
The pharmaceutical industry has been growing considerably in recent months. With the pandemic caused by Covid-19, the revenue of the pharmaceutical niche exceeded billions of rupees.
These numbers, however, represent the sector's need to invest in a quality supply, guaranteeing the safety of products and the health of the population.
To carry out this activity, it is necessary to make good planning of operations. A distributor needs to have a structure capable of storing a large number of medicines hygienically and having resources to improve management and optimize internal processes.
Is your company prepared for the future?
In the months of the pandemic, the distribution of medicines became an even more competitive market, and the trend is that the sector will continue to grow in the coming years.
Given this scenario, it is necessary to devise strategies to achieve good business partnerships, competitive prices, and profitability in the face of competition.
But what strategies are these? How can SAP Business One help industries? We'll talk about it.
How does SAP Business One work in the pharmaceutical industry?
SAP Business One is a tool widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, however, many managers still do not know about it, or even do not believe that it may be necessary for their business.
This is SAP's ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning, or Integrated Management System) for small and medium-sized companies, which are growing. It offers complete and standardized management for all areas of a business, through features that are easy to understand and use.
Having this system operating to facilitate drug distribution is no longer a luxury or additional service: it is extremely necessary and is already part of the routine of distributors who do not want to be left behind.
We brought some of the biggest benefits of having this platform for Pharma:
Eliminates manual processes
Through Artificial Intelligence, the SAP Business One platform helps the organization eliminate manual processes, avoiding possible human errors.
By digitizing and optimizing these processes, the chances of errors are eliminated and, in this way, the company's production becomes faster and safer, and the team becomes able to accomplish more tasks in less time.
Reduces operations time and costs
When managers manage to solve most of the adversities through the correct use of an Artificial Intelligence platform, which centralizes operations, it is possible to identify waste and reduce unnecessary costs. This cost reduction directly affects the company's profitability.
Optimizes the flow of information within the company
Every manager needs to access relevant and reliable information to have a holistic view of operations, monitor each stage of operations, project an overview, and outline strategies, which allows for improvements in decision making.
With the SAP Business One system, updated reports are generated by the platform, bringing automation of tasks, assertiveness, transparency, and security in the information obtained, ensuring the company's productivity and success.
