I have extensive experience with various inventory management systems, including SAP and Oracle. In my previous role, I utilized SAP to track inventory levels, manage stock replenishment, and generate reports on usage patterns. This experience has equipped me with the skills to efficiently manage and optimize inventory levels, ensuring that the pharmacy always has the necessary medications in stock.

When discrepancies arise, I conduct a thorough investigation to identify the root cause. This involves reviewing recent transactions, checking physical stock against records, and collaborating with the team to ensure accuracy. I then implement corrective actions, such as updating inventory records and reinforcing training on proper inventory handling procedures, to prevent future discrepancies.

To minimize waste, I prioritize first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory management and regularly review expiration dates. I also collaborate with the procurement team to forecast demand accurately, ensuring we order the right quantities. Additionally, I maintain optimal storage conditions and conduct regular audits to ensure all products are stored correctly, preserving their freshness and efficacy.

I prioritize tasks based on urgency and impact. Critical tasks, such as managing expiring stock or addressing stockouts, take precedence. I also use a task management system to organize and track daily activities, ensuring that all tasks are completed efficiently. Regular communication with the team helps in identifying potential issues early and allocating resources effectively.

In my previous role, I identified inefficiencies in the inventory replenishment process, which often led to stockouts. I implemented a just-in-time ordering system, reducing excess inventory and minimizing storage costs. This change not only improved inventory turnover but also enhanced customer satisfaction by ensuring timely availability of medications.
