Mapping the future direction of logistics
The pharmaceutical and healthcare industry faces great challenges: stricter
regulation, increasing R&D and supply chain costs, and patent expiry. With growing
expectations for temperature-controlled transportation, the consequence of error
or omission is magnified. Kuehne + Nagel has designed KN PharmaChain to take
a holistic view of the logistics process, allowing us to customise our services to
every specific product requirement.
Compliance and risk mitigation
Our extensive global network provides GXP compliant facilities
and trained staff. Protocols have been developed for each and
every KN PharmaChain operation:
• Strictly assessed, first-class carrier partners ensure shipments arrive on time and undamaged
• All shipments fully compliant with IATA Chapter 17
• Risk assessments for all KN PharmaChain trade lanes
• Active/passive packaging solutions selected from global preferred supplier base if specific hazard identified
• All movements overseen by the Cargo 2000 process.
STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES
All shipments/operations have customised SOPs to ensure:
• Specific shipment requirements are defined and documented e.g. temperature control, trade lane requirements, escalation procedures
• High standards maintained and agreements observed.
RELiabilit y and visibilit y
Global 24 hour door-to-door track and trace provided by our
KN Login application, enabling customers and authorised
staff to view:
• Planned/actual shipment status
• Electronic copies of critical shipment documentation
• Temperature/voltage levels of an active temperature-
controlled ULD at predefined key milestones.
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
Wireless sensors monitor in-transit temperatures door-to-door
– from pick-up to delivery
• Real-time temperature data, globally available
• Configurable alarms trigger predefined response to temperature deviations, protecting product quality.
Highly trained and proactive CareTeam
With the expertise of our Global CareTeam, you can trust
Kuehne + Nagel to manage and deliver consignments
according to your precise requirements:
• Operating worldwide – 24 hours a day, 365 days a year
• Highly skilled, GXP compliant pharmaceutical and healthcare professionals
• Advanced monitoring of location, status and condition of your temperature-sensitive shipments.
Industry expertise and product knowledge are critical. For
this reason, Kuehne + Nagel has award-winning continuous
training programmes in place, developed in collaboration with
our customers. Kuehne + Nagel was the first qualified
Envirotainer provider (QEP) and maintains the largest number
of QEP accredited locations of any logistics provider.
Advanced facilities: KN COOLZONES
All Kuehne + Nagel facilities comply with the highest
industry standards to ensure faultless transportation of
everykind of temperature-sensitive, pharmaceutical and
healthcare shipment. KN PharmaChain introduces a new
level of dedicated facilities: KN CoolZones.
Served by our own fleet of temperature-regulated trucks and
carefully selected subcontractors, KN CoolZones enable us
to offer you stringent temperature control throughout the
supply chain:
• Pharmaceutical and healthcare dedicated
• GDP compliant
• Multiple temperature zones
• Shipment build-up, cross-docking, consolidation and emergency storage of all temperature-controlled shipments.
EXCEPTION MANAGEMENT
Should a milestone be missed, or a reading fall outside
a predefined range, an alarm is triggered. The CareTeam
drives an agreed escalation and contingency plan in which
all necessary corrective action is taken. We will make any
practical intervention to maintain the integrity of your
shipment and to ensure that transit times are met. This could
be a simple battery replacement, as new flight booking
or the arrangement of temporary, temperature-controlled
storage.
Four service levels to cater for variable handling and temperature needs
Level 1: No special handling requirements or temperature control
Level 2: Time-sensitive shipment where passive packaging provides all required temperature control
Level 3: Time- and temperature-sensitive shipment where passive packaging and temperature-controlled
handling and transportation is required
Level 4: Temperature-sensitive shipment using an active temperature-controlled ULD
