Efficiency Is Key to Our System

Just-in-Time Ordering/Reduced Lead Time
Our automated Supply Chain Planning (SCP) system can help condense processes in the supply chain. Using a customer’s forecast data, it can automatically manage material supplies, printing and production. Cartons, labels and other printed items are delivered using the aptly named Just-In-Time manufacturing process.
Customers can order what they want and the required amount and indicate when the products are needed. Efficient programs can be devised to manage frequent label changes that may occur due to regulatory updates or new market demands.
Reduced Inventory Levels and Obsolescence Risk
Supply Chain Printing can automatically streamline the printing process to support Just-In-Time ordering. This reduces inventory levels and minimizes the risk of outdated, obsolescent labels. CCL Healthcare’s medical supply chain management system can cut down on the amount of storage space needed by effectively eliminating customers’ need to store excessive amounts of safety stock.
Flexibility Is Built Into Our Supply Chain Planning System
CCL Healthcare’s supply chain planning system makes the inventory network more responsive. We track customer demand through the SCP system, which allows us to react faster by not having to wait for customers to provide purchase orders.
This highly sensitive, interactive supply chain planning solution consults with customers on a weekly or even daily basis to monitor order behavior. The Supply Chain system automatically searches for spikes, and CCL Healthcare can capture them to predict needs and stay consistently ahead of demand.
