Sandoz needed to optimize the distribution of high-complexity and chronic medication within the public hospital network. The traditional model faced several critical challenges:
The objective was to implement a technological solution that ensured 24/7 availability while maintaining maximum safety and regulatory compliance.
The implementation of Smart Lockers has transformed the pharmaceutical supply chain, achieving the following metrics:
Hospitals with Columat technology
Reduction in pharmacy counter congestion
Increase in treatment adherence and follow-up
Regulatory compliance in temperature
A comprehensive system of smart lockers (refrigerated and dry) integrated with hospital management software
Automated delivery of chronic medication through refrigerated (2-8°C) and dry lockers for patient self-service
