Gary Jones, founder of PDM, runs a pharmacy in Borth, Wales. He found that running a delivery service raised issues on a day-to-day basis.

Here are some of his comments on the challenges he faced:

"I lacked vital information on the service we provided. I did not know how many [deliveries] we did daily, weekly, and monthly. The delivery driver required more hours, but I had no way of seeing how well the delivery system worked or could be improved. There seemed to be a communication problem between the pharmacy staff and the delivery service. When my driver said he was going on holiday for a month I needed a system in place that would ensure that our delivery service did not suffer. We had reached a stage where we required a second van for the delivery. During the month he was on holiday and monitoring the two drivers I realised how inefficient our delivery service was, such as delivering to far-reach areas on consecutive days."

Gary realised that another solution was needed

He says, "After clearly identifying the issues I decided to have a mobile app developed to provide a complete solution. This was developed not as a business initiative but to resolve issues that I had with the delivery service we provided."

The result?

"We were able to reshuffle our deliveries and not only have we been able to avoid the second van, but [have] been able to reduce the delivery time by an hour every day. This has resulted in significant savings, even when factoring in the cost of development and a mobile phone contract for my driver.
I was also able to get rid of all paperwork and place a computer screen on the wall. This enabled the staff to follow the driver live through the day and hence resolve any delivery issues with patients that phoned up.
I was so pleased with the solution that I decided to make it available to other pharmacies.
Since making that decision I have set up a company to provide the service - [PDM] - and developed the app further to include features requested by other pharmacies."
