Award: Supply Chain Excellence Awards - UK

Award Name: The Healthcare & Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Excellence Award

Company: Controlant, World Courier

World Courier delivers important medicines around the world, and the innovation for this awards submission is centred around a key tenet: that every moment matters in the journey from lab to life. Recognizing the critical importance of timely and secure delivery for patient-impacting shipments, we understand that every moment in transit can present issues like misplacement or incorrect storage. That is why we, at World Courier have made big improvements in how we keep track of our shipments.

Real-time location monitoring (RTLM) gives us the ability to see exactly where each shipment is, at all times. With this technology, we can quickly intervene to make sure critical medicines get to people safely, and on time.
