Current Problems?
Substandard and counterfeit drugs are a massive problem around the world, resulting in the deaths of up to 1 million people every year and with an estimated market size of 200 Billion USD. World Customs Organization’s Anti-Counterfeiting and Piracy Coordinator Christophe Zimmerman has even made the shocking claim that “We have more fakes than real drugs in the market.” Within the pharmaceutical supply chain, Accountability, Authentication, and Visibility are of the utmost importance. Due to the inflexibility of legacy systems and fragmented technological solutions, it has become increasingly difficult to track a single packet of drugs from the point of manufacture to the point of consumption, and even more difficult to hold parties accountable when problems do arise. Legal obligations such as track-and-trace and the upcoming Falsified Medicines Directive (scheduled to go into effect in February 2019) and Drug Supply Chain Security Act - scheduled to go into effect in 2018 - mean that it is important for all members of the supply chain to be responsible for not only their operations, but for the integrity of their partners as well. Given this, an interoperable and collaborative solution will be essential not only for adapting to a shifting regulatory environment, but for improving patient wellbeing and saving lives.
