Project: Delivery of Prescriptions using Drones for Wilmont’s Pharmacy – Pilot Project
Revision No.:
Revision Date: 11/12/2020
Purpose:
The purpose of this project is to develop a ground breaking innovative technology for delivery of
prescriptions for Wilmont’s Pharmacy – A leading U.S. drug retail pharmacy using Drones in San
Francisco, CA in order to optimize the delivery system. This will be a prototype-based project to
understand the feasibility of this new concept. The project is being secretly developed.
Project Goals:
The Project include developing of customized, fully equipped drones for home-to-home delivery
of pharmacy prescriptions along with related software integrated with customer portal system.
The project will be commissioned on pilot basis in San Francisco, CA and 04 (Four) retail
pharmacies of Wilmont’s will be participating in this project.
The drones designed for this project will be customized in order to handle sensitive pharmacies
and deliver them safely to the customers. Perceiving that the some of the pharmacies are prone
to temperature effects, the bagging system inside drones should have temperature control
facility. Also, the pharmacies are delicate and to ensure their safe delivery, the drones should be
equipped with bubble type cushioning system that will enable safe & sound delivery of
medicines.
The other aspect of this project is to develop a delivery software, which needs to be integrated
with existing customer portal of Wilmont’s Pharmacy. The customers willing to receive this
service should register them on the application & needs to be approved for this facility by
Wilmont’s Management. During the integration of software, the security of Wilmont’s business
information, customer privacy & proprietary information on drone delivery system should be of
prime importance.
For this prototype project, 04 (Four) of Wilmont’s retail pharmacies have participated and for
trial assessment customers in apartment buildings will not be approved by Wilmont’s
Management for opting this service, considering the complexity of delivery.
The project is estimated to cost $750,000 based on similar previous projects conducted by
DroneTech. However, the cost should be as less as possible. The funding for this pilot project will
be raised by Vice President (Operations), Wilmont’s Pharmacy. The delivery system should be a
seamless enhancement to Wilmont’s already top-quality delivery process. The Wilmont’s
Management is attempting to optimize their pharmacy delivery using drones.
The project should commence on 5th January & considering the harsh winter conditions in
proposed region, the 1st test flight should be commissioned “no later than 30th November”.
The testing of drone delivery operations will be conducted by appointed representatives of
Wilmont’s Pharmacy and their decision will be absolute and binding on all. These representatives
will review the test delivery flight along with ease and efficiency of the integrated delivery
software.
