is not just a regulatory requirement — it is essential for patient safety and treatment efficacy worldwide. This white paper explores the importance of supply chain risk management and how to effectively manage and mitigate these risks.</p> <h4>Risk management in pharmaceutical logistics</h4> <p>Risk is an inherent part of pharmaceutical development, manufacturing, and distribution. By proactively identifying and addressing various supply chain risks throughout the life cycle of a pharmaceutical product, companies can ensure therapies that reach patients are safe, effective, and of the highest quality. Effective logistics risk management is a process based on scientific evidence, data, and procedures integrated into every stage of the product’s manufacturing and distribution.</p> <h4>Supplier management in pharma supply chains</h4> <p>Effective supplier management is essential to ensuring a consistent supply of vital treatments of the highest quality. Organizations often have the opportunity to choose between tactical and strategic relationships with suppliers of materials or services. Choosing wisely between different supplier models can make all the difference in reducing the level of risk and maintaining the highest product quality.</p> <h4>Cold chain risk management</h4> <p>Pharmaceutical products and medical devices are often delicate, reacting to conditions such as temperature, humidity, light exposure, tilting, or vibration. For CGTs, such as biologics, and delicate sensors or medical devices, regulations and guidelines for optimal storage and transport conditions are very strict. <br> <br> Specialty medical logistics providers commonly use cryogenic shipping, working with firmly established controls, alarms, and contingency plans.</p> <h4>Lane assessment and shipping qualification</h4> <p>Lane assessment enables specialty logistics providers to evaluate potential risks associated with all considered transportation routes and consider all hazards that a shipment may encounter on the way to its destination, allowing them to implement risk mitigation strategies and protect the product. <br> <br> Thorough lane assessments and shipping qualifications help expert shipping partners identify potential supply chain weaknesses, mitigate supply chain risk, improve overall efficiency, and maintain product quality to ensure patients always receive safe and effective therapies.</p> <div> </div> </div> <div class="module__links"> <div class=""><a href="/contact-us-home" class="button-primary"> <span class="button-primary__label"> Contact us now </span> </a></div> </div> <div class="module__image module__image--mobile"> <div class="image image--square"> <img src="/-/media/assets/worldcourier/english/images/article-images/quality-white-paper-cover-image.jpeg?h=4672&iar=0&w=7008&hash=D050C52A84DDF72A7DD19A6302DC638C" alt="" width="7008" height="4672" /> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="container margin-top-1 margin-bottom-1"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12"> <div class="topics"> <div class="topics__title">Topics:</div> <span class="topics__list"> <span class="topics__tag-wrapper"> <a class="topics__tag" href="/insights?category=Quality">Quality</a> </span> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12"> <div class="social"> <div class="content-share"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="marginator margin-top-0 "> <div class="module__divider background-shade-white" style="padding-top: 3rem;"> <div class="container"> <hr class="divider"> </div> </div> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12"> <div class="about-the-authors"> <h2 class="about-the-authors__title"> About The Author </h2> <div class="about-the-authors__authors"> <div class="author"> <div class="author__details"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12 col-lg-3"> <a class="author__link author__link-image" href="/people/carina-plada" target=""> <img src="/-/media/assets/worldcourier/english/images/headshots/carina-headshot.jpg?h=140&iar=0&w=140&useCustomFunctions=1&centerCrop=1&hash=EAC9325A1B12FFDF42CC3D95E82C8ED1" class="author__image" alt="Carina headshot" width="140" height="140" /> </a> </div> <div class="col-12 col-lg-9"> <a class="author__link" href="/people/carina-plada" target=""> <span class="h3 author__name"> Carina Plada </span> </a> <div class="author__role"> Director, Quality -
