Digital twins are
revolutionising pharmaceutical supply chains by providing a virtual replica of
physical assets, processes, or systems. This innovative technology allows for
real-time monitoring, simulation, and optimisation, making supply chains more
efficient, transparent, and sustainable. Integrating digital twins into core
operations can significantly enhance the pharmaceutical industry’s ability to
anticipate, predict, and resolve issues before they occur, ultimately
contributing to greener and more cost-effective logistics strategies.

Understanding
Digital Twins in Pharmaceutical Supply Chains
Digital twins are virtual
models that accurately replicate physical entities. In pharmaceutical supply
chains, they can simulate manufacturing processes, track inventory, and monitor
distribution networks in real-time. This technology enables companies to create
a dynamic digital representation of their entire supply chain, facilitating
better decision-making and operational efficiency. (1)
Applications in
Pharmaceutical Supply Chains
