Intl Medical Corps enters Logistics Hall of Fame


The first winner of the Lynn C. Fritz Medal for Excellence in Humanitarian Logistics has been announced: in 2023, the medal awarded by the Logistics Hall of Fame and sponsored by Fritz Institute will go to the USA-based humanitarian organisation International Medical Corps.

 

With its internally developed software “Pharmaceutical Information Management System” (PIMS), the Los Angeles-based organisation introduced an innovative tool for the management of the last mile in the pharmaceutical supply chain.

 

The IT programme provides time savings and transparency for supply chains in disaster areas. It is now successfully in use at 165 sites in 16 countries. Since October 2019, more than 1.7 million prescriptions have been processed in the software and approximately three million items have been dispensed to those in need. (cj)
