Powerful Software for tracking your network
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Our organization use TraceLink to safely track prescription drugs from the manufacturing vendors to the patient. It solves 3 major problems: 1. Legal Compliance 2. Massive Partner Network 3. Negligible Product Delays For our organization, TraceLink acts as a reliable, global and secure tracking system built purely for pharmaceutical safety.
Pros
- It ensures we automatically meet strict government anti counterfeiting laws by giving every medicine package a unique tracking number.
- Instead of building expensive custom connections to every single factory, warehouse and pharmacy we work with, it links us to all of them through one secure cloud platform.
- It tracks inventory and spots shipping errors in real time, preventing legal delays that could stop life saving medicine from reaching patients.
Cons
- The system layout is a bit complex and for the day to day tasks require extensive training for our warehouse staff.
- The built in standard reports are basic. For customized reports, it often requires building external BI pipelines.
- I would like to see a self service dashboard, displaying real time throughput indicators, it will help to see where a stucked transaction is sitting in real time.
Return on Investment
