The Mozambique Ministry of Health has developed a Strategic Plan for Pharmaceutical Logistics (PELF) to address supply chain challenges and improve the availability of medicines for the 30 million people living in Mozambique. The Central de Medicamentos e Artigos Médicos (CMAM) is responsible for implementing the PELF.
ARC was invited by The Global Financing Facility and its Private Sector Innovation for more effective Supply Chains partnership to support CMAM in its implementation of the PELF. ARC proposed and oversaw a detailed investment case analysis of the envisioned logistics changes in the PELF.
Engagement with CMAM on the findings of the investment case has been positive. The investment case analysis gave insight into the expected cost of investments into supply chain infrastructure and the ongoing warehousing and distribution costs and staffing requirements.
