Free Webinar: Hitting a Profitability Home Run – Automating Your Pharmacy’s Inventory Management

April 24, 2017/0 Comments/in All, Pharmacy Finances, Pharmacy Staff Development/by pdsmarketing

Anyone who manages an independent pharmacy knows how intractable the challenge of inventory management can be, whether perpetual or not. Cycle counting, managing C-II logs, order point adjustments, and tracking expired stock are among the labor intensive processes that can drastically impact the profitability of your business. How can a pharmacy with competing demands on technician and pharmacist labor keep perpetual inventory without a significant time investment?

You can hit a “profitability home run” by maintaining accurate perpetual inventory that can reduce the overall inventory carry, minimize stock-outs, and enhance the overall standard of patient care. The problem is one of automation—how can a pharmacy with competing demands on technician and pharmacist labor keep perpetual inventory without a significant time investment?  How does a pharmacy balance profit vs. cashflow?

The current model for keeping perpetual inventory should be well-known to anyone who manages daily operations in an independent pharmacy:

Manual Perpetual Inventory Management Cycle

The end result of these processes is, hopefully, accurate perpetual inventory. But the major drawback is the amount of time investment required to have someone cycle count, manage par levels and reordering, check in totes against a manifest, and physically place bottles on shelves. And if someone calls in sick, or it’s a busy Monday and there’s no time, or a technician forgets to cycle count, it can quickly become extremely difficult to keep up with the management cycle. The result is often the “garbage in, garbage out” problem, which is the tendency of manual inventory systems to drift over time, leading to inaccurate data, which in turn causes stock-outs, incorrect order quantities, and ultimately poorer customer service this crushes cashflow and suppresses profit.  

Automating the cycle eliminates the problems inherent in the manual process, and is now finally achievable with the introduction of the RxSafe 1800.
