Sometimes, the world of time-critical shipping can mean the difference between life or death. Blood. Organs for transplants. Human tissue. Cell or gene immunotherapies. Ensuring their safe delivery – getting them often from one side of the country to the other, where a patient in a hospital waits – brings global supply chain logistics challenges to a whole new level.
For 30 years, that’s been the focus of Dave Murphy. Dave is Executive Vice President with Quick Specialized Healthcare Logistics and has seen – and managed through – the challenges and changes in global supply chain management.
In this episode of QuickConversations, host Chris Riback speaks with Dave about his experience in the critical healthcare logistics space and covers a wide range of topics, including:
- How the evolution of personalized medicine has impacted global supply chain logistics.
- The technologies that are most important to know about and rely on.
- What goes into delivering life-critical organs or medical devices when faced with natural disasters or a global health crisis.
