“The data can tell you a lot of things. It can tell you the past, and it can tell you what you should do in the future.

It can spot patterns of noncompliance with your formulary or your purchasing contracts. Both can add to your supply chain costs. In terms of the future, the data can show your system how to improve its supply chain performance. “
