Problem
How could Sigma reduce their vendor base to benefit from increased economies of scale, thus enabling them to reduce the high levels of inspection on incoming product and reduce the volume of surveillance audits on their suppliers?
Solution
Pharmakit- Colorpak’s ability to supply high quality pharmaceutical packaging components such as; Cartons, leaflets, labels, foils and film provided Sigma just that opportunity. Sigma are provided folded cartons with attached CMI leaflets, self adhesive labels, blister foil as well as cold form foil and film lidding solutions.
Outcome
- Increased economies of scale on purchasing from Sigma
- Multiple items from one certified specialist pharmaceutical provider means reduced inspection and verification on Sigmas behalf.
- Greater consistency of appearance on multiple components when sourcing from one vendor.
A true “one stop shop solution”
