The global digital healthcare supply chain management market size is anticipated to reach USD 5.4 billion by 2030 and it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.0% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Major factors driving the market growth include adopting the GS1 standard system and UDI, emerging cloud-based solutions, and the growing need to reduce operating costs.
Moreover, the increasing adoption of mobile-based healthcare supply chain management (SCM) solutions contributes to market growth over the forecast period. Mobile apps have become an essential part of SCM solutions. GPS-enabled mobile applications have made supply chain management easier for logistic companies in developed and emerging countries. These apps use mobile devices and sensors to track vehicles, providing better visibility of the entire SCM. For example, Curvo, a sourcing technology application for implants and physician preference items, is designed to enhance supply chain efficiency. The app eliminates manual work by automatically sourcing work from connected vendors, and e-sourcing project management.
The COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the market growth. The healthcare industry faced substantial shifts and obstacles during the crisis. The pandemic fueled the adoption of telehealth services, as digital supply chain systems played a vital part in facilitating the distribution of virtual healthcare solutions, including telemedicine equipment and remote monitoring devices. Additionally, the importance of data-driven decision-making increased significantly. Key companies in the market integrated advanced analytics to predict demand, improve inventory management, and enhance distribution efficiency.
Moreover, key players in the market, such as Mckesson Corporation, Oracle. SAP and Mediceo Corporation, among others, are engaging in strategic initiatives such as partnerships, collaborations, new product launches, acquisitions, and expansions to strengthen their market position. For instance, in October 2022, Oracle introduced Oracle Cloud SCM, a healthcare industry specific supply chain solution. The Oracle Cloud SCM assists clinics and hospitals to plan more effectively, manage responsive supply chains, and improve the quality of care.
