The PwC report also outlines potential ways by which pharmaceutical companies can restructure their supply chains.

Therapy companies, for instance, may outsource all manufacturing, warehousing and distribution operations. They may also build supply chains where they can manufacture and distribute their own treatments, as well as partner with alternative healthcare providers.

Drug manufacturers may implement strategies in lean manufacturing, strategic pricing and inventory management to mass produce drugs and warehouse supplies that can be sold at lower prices. Mass producers may also incorporate add-on services such as door-to-door deliveries in their supply chains.

PwC expects the pharmaceutical supply chain to be remodeled in the coming years and result in the creation of various models that fit particular warehouse supplies, products and patient groups. The supply chain will be a significant metric in differentiating among various pharmaceutical companies and will also become a two-way information portal.

“The most successful [pharmaceutical] companies will be those that recognize the underlying value locked in their supply chain and can leverage it as a value and brand differentiator rather than just a cost,” said Steve Arlington, PwC’s global advisory pharmaceutical and life sciences leader. “Companies that recognize information is the currency of the future, will be those that go the final mile and stand out by 2020.”
