  Medicine plays a vital role in the lives of many people. Picking up medicine from a local store is easy, but the delivery of medicine through order fulfillment companies is more challenging. When it comes to the shipment of pharmaceuticals, certain barriers need to be addressed, such as temperature and transportation. With the recent COVID-19 pandemic  order fulfillment services  of medications have increased in demand. Temperature Control Delivering pharmaceuticals requires more than a truck. To efficiently and safely provide product fulfillment services, carriers will need to maintain cold chain logistics to preserve the medication. Climate-controlled trucks can run a cooling unit without assistance. This unit allows for the truck to be kept at the perfect temperature for pharmaceutical shipments. Temperature control also relies on the containers to protect the medication from extreme exposure to harsh temperatures, water, or light. The factors of temperature control through transp

  Strategic use of outsourcing tasks and operations can lead to long-term savings for many companies. However, choosing the wrong business partners – or choosing to perform the operations themselves when the resources and skill levels are lacking – can cripple or bankrupt a company. Companies that anticipate major changes in operations – such as expanding their customer base or anticipating strong growth – should seek a  third-party logistic company  that can scale its operations along with its clients. Octochem is one such company that can offer customized services that increase clients’ efficiency while reducing clients’ costs. Failure to Plan Is Planning to Fail Choosing the best solution requires an honest, healthy assessment of the problems and goals that the company faces. Many start-up companies will be restrained by limited resources and funds. Companies in different phases of their lifecycles will have different needs; a startup company would be less concerned with establishin

  The storage, management, and shipping of inventory and goods can be a significant drain of a company’s time, money, and employees. And expansion efforts can be complicated or halted when a company purchases a warehouse that is not suitable for the items being stored or a warehouse whose location complicates supply and distribution operations. Lastly, the training and safety of the staff that maintains the warehouse increases a company’s costs even further. One solution is public  warehousing services  which take responsibility for the company’s storage and shipment of inventory and goods. OctoChem is a North American warehousing service that can dramatically decrease the time, costs, and frustrations associated with inventory management and distribution. The Cost and Effort Associated with Warehousing There is far more to a warehouse than treating it as a simple storage bin for items. Different industries have their own unique inventories and products, each with their own storage req

Warehouse management can be a huge commitment of manpower and money for a business. It can also be a liability when problems arise such as late shipments, damaged products, or legal issues associated with non-compliance with regulations. External warehouse companies provide their clients with several advantages that can conserve the clients’ resources and give them a better position in competitive markets. Warehouse Companies Free Up Their Client’s Resources When a business hires an external  warehousing company  to handle their warehouse logistics, the warehousing company takes responsibility for every aspect of the business’s warehousing – from the moment after the sale to the successful delivery to the customer. The business that no longer must allocate its own resources to warehousing can focus on other business-related matters. Warehouse Companies Have Better Experience and Resources for Warehousing Warehouse companies are specifically trained and equipped to handle warehouse-rela
