RISK FACTORS IN PHARMACUETICAL SUPPLYCHAIN



Globalization, unpredicted happenings, amplified intricacy of supply chain systems along with high customer expectations, inconstant environment, decreasing product and technology life cycles, present pharmaceutical supply chain encounters extensive risks and complexities

       Supply side risks are observed at the upstream of supply chain.

       Demand side risks are observed on downstream of supply chain

       Regulatory risk arises due economic influence in business, policy changes (increase in tariffs & duties), and government intervention in setting prices and limitation of products.

       Financial risk such as limited capital, shortage of cash for day-to-day operations and increase in exchange rates also contribute to disruption in supply chain.

       Uncontrolled risk in the form of natural calamities such as earthquakes, terrorist attacks and pandemic that disrupts the supply plan.

       Equipment breakdown, inadequate planning, shortage of skilled labors in the market are led to production and operation risk.

       Cyber-attacks, infrastructure breakdown and a lack of business vision often render the supply chains.
