Platform 4: Adaptive Digital Supply

Platform 4 will generate new understanding on future medicine supply chain needs that will benefit patients.

The aim is to use the new knowledge to support the adoption of adaptive digital supply chains for patient-centric supply.

IDTs make smaller scale, autonomous factory concepts viable. This in turn supports more flexible and distributed manufacture and supply set-ups. The result; increased options on scale and product variety coupled with shorter lead-times offering a responsive, patient-centric or rapid replenishment operating model. Finally, technology developments closer to the patient, such as diagnostics, provide visibility on patient specific needs.
