Pharmaplus+ Vendor Management enables retail pharmacies in India to efficiently manage supplier relationships and streamline their procurement processes. This feature allows pharmacies to track vendor performance, automate purchase orders, and monitor stock levels, ensuring the right products arrive on time.
Challenges in Vendor Management
Pharmacies often manage multiple suppliers, which can lead to delays, stockouts, over-ordering, and inconsistent deliveries without a proper system in place. Manually tracking supplier performance and inventory levels increases the risk of errors, affecting the pharmacy’s ability to maintain optimal stock. Pharmacies need a centralized system to efficiently manage their suppliers, automate procurement, and ensure they have the right stock at the right time.
How Pharmaplus+ Vendor Management Works
Pharmaplus+ Vendor Management provides a centralized platform for pharmacies to store supplier information, track performance, and automate the procurement process. With detailed records for each vendor—such as contact details, payment terms, and delivery history—pharmacies can automate purchase orders based on real-time inventory needs. Pharmacies can also monitor supplier performance by tracking delivery times, reviewing product quality, and analyzing order fulfillment. This streamlines the procurement process and improves relationships with reliable vendors.
