Legislation & Adherence to Good Distribution Practices
 The Pharmaceutical Industry is very highly
regulated by the MHRA (Medicines Health
Regulatory Authority)
 The MHRA is the Government Agency
responsible for ensuring the safety, quality and
efficacy of medicines in the UK.
 Movianto holds a Wholesale Dealer’s Licence

Legislation & Adherence to Good Distribution Practices
 The MHRA will conduct audits of wholesalers to
ensure adherence to Good Pharmaceutical
Distribution Practice (GDP) and that product
integrity is maintained at all time.
 Failure to adhere to GDP guidelines can result
in suspension or revocation of licence and/or
prosecution of company and of RP(s)
individually which would effectively put the
company out of business.

Supply Chain Logistics
 When I leave my car in for repair at Nissan
(who have an excellent supply chain) they may
tell me they need a part from Japan – ‘ it’ll be
here tomorrow afternoon.’
 And generally it’ll arrive on time and the repairs
completed – but if it doesn’t arrive it may be an
inconvenience but that’s all.

Product Integrity?
 When the end user is a patient in a hospital bed
– supply chain management takes on a new
meaning.
 So - What do we mean by Product Integrity?
 Delivered on time, in full and in the correct
condition
 100% accuracy every time.

 As an example we distribute a product
manufactured in Switzerland which is used to

pack and has to be kept between +2 – +8

to Pharmacy well in advance)

 Plans with Manufacturer to fly it direct from Source

Supply Chain Management
 Movianto invest to ensure pharmaceuticals are
handled in the correct manner...
 In particular the cold-chain maintenance
 back-up condensers, dual warehouses, dual fridges and
back-up generators etc.
 Not to mention servicing, maintenance, calibration
and validation of all measuring equipment by
independent UKAS accredited sources.
 24/7/365 Alarm monitoring and call-out list.

Supply Chain Management
 Similarly with transportation – vehicles must be
equipped to maintain product integrity..
 Real-time temp monitoring
 Back-up equipment etc
 This audit trail can be requested at anytime by
Hospital Trusts, Manufacturers or the MHRA
even several years later.

Supply Chain Management
‘In my opinion, Investment (which
needs to be reflected in the cost of the service
provided)
being taken out of the
supply chain maintenance will
increase the risk to product
integrity and ultimately patient
safety.’
Harry Lyness Operations Manager for Movianto N.I.

Supply Chain Maintenance
 Imagine the scenario.....
 You here a short news bulletin whilst driving to work relating to
a person that had died at a local hospital after taking a reaction
to some medication. You disregard it but feel pity for the family
of the person.
 Several days later your company is asked to provide evidence
that a drug you supplied had been stored and transported
within the manufacturer specification
