With the continuous development and growth of the biopharmaceutical industry, procurement management has become an indispensable part of enterprise management. In order to improve procurement efficiency, reduce procurement costs, and ensure procurement quality and compliance, enterprises need to change the traditional procurement mode and upgrade the procurement management through Digital transformation.
Biopharmaceutical companies face the following difficulties in procurement management:
The procurement process is complex: biopharmaceutical procurement involves multiple stages, including requirement confirmation, supplier selection, contract signing, order processing, receipt and acceptance, etc. The process is complex and prone to problems such as information asymmetry and poor communication.
Difficulty in supplier management: Biopharmaceutical companies need to collaborate with multiple suppliers, but the number of suppliers is large and management is difficult. At the same time, the compliance and quality of suppliers also need to be evaluated and monitored.
Backward level of information technology: Some biopharmaceutical enterprises still use traditional manual procurement management methods, and the level of information technology is relatively backward, unable to meet the needs of enterprises.
Frequent changes in demand: The biopharmaceutical market is rapidly changing, and demand is also changing accordingly. Enterprises need to adjust their procurement plans and strategies in a timely manner, but traditional procurement management methods cannot meet this rapidly changing demand.
Difficulty in cost control: biopharmaceutical procurement involves high costs, including raw material costs, labor costs, transportation costs, etc. How to control costs is an important issue faced by enterprises.
These difficulties will affect the procurement efficiency and quality of biopharmaceutical enterprises, increasing their operating costs and risks. Therefore, biopharmaceutical enterprises need to adopt modern procurement management methods, such as biopharmaceutical procurement platforms, to improve procurement efficiency, reduce procurement costs, and ensure procurement quality and compliance.
The application of biopharmaceutical procurement mall management system
The Shushang Cloud biopharmaceutical procurement system is an information technology-based procurement management tool that can help biopharmaceutical enterprises manage the entire process from demand planning to supplier selection, purchase orders, receipt and acceptance, payment settlement, and so on. The specific applications of the procurement collaborative management platform include the following aspects:
1. Procurement demand management
The procurement needs of biopharmaceutical enterprises come from complex sources and require unified management of the needs of various departments. The biopharmaceutical procurement platform can help enterprises achieve centralized management of procurement needs, including procurement planning, requirement approval, procurement application, and other processes, thereby avoiding duplicate procurement and unnecessary waste.
2. Supplier Management
Biopharmaceutical companies need to establish close partnerships with numerous suppliers to ensure the quality and supply stability of raw materials and equipment. The procurement mall management system can help enterprises evaluate and select suppliers, and establish supplier records to timely understand supplier performance and compliance.
3. Purchase Order Management
Biopharmaceutical purchase orders typically have a large quantity and involve a high amount of money, therefore a procurement system that can track the status and progress of orders in real-time is needed. The procurement collaborative management platform can help enterprises achieve automated processing of purchase orders, including order generation, review, modification, cancellation, and other processes, thereby improving order processing efficiency and accuracy.
4. Receipt and acceptance management
The quality of biopharmaceutical raw materials and equipment has a crucial impact on product quality and safety. The biopharmaceutical procurement platform can help enterprises achieve automated processing of receiving and acceptance, including receiving notifications, setting acceptance standards, recording acceptance results, and other processes, thereby reducing the impact of human factors on acceptance results and improving acceptance efficiency.
5. Payment settlement management
The procurement amount of biopharmaceutical enterprises is usually large, so a system that can track payment status and settlement progress in real-time is needed. The biopharmaceutical procurement platform can help enterprises achieve automated processing of payment settlement, including payment application, review, payment, and other processes, thereby improving payment efficiency and accuracy.
