AmerisourceBergen Challenge
Pharmacies typically engage with a single pharmaceutical distributor to purchase all the drugs they need. This type of arrangement is governed by a contract called a Prime Vendor Agreement (PVA), which the pharmacy enters into with the distributor for a specific number of years defined in the agreement itself. The PVA also stipulates what percentage of its drugs a pharmacy must buy from the distributor in order to be compliant with the agreement. A pharmacy may choose to purchase drugs from a distributor other than the one it has a PVA with; this is referred to as “leakage,” and it can sometimes be significant. Challenge here is to determine which drugs are being bought outside the PVA from other distributors, hypothesize why this is happening, and recommend where AmerisourceBergen should concentrate efforts to reduce this leakage and regain lost revenue and profit.
