MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY OF HEALTH

The enactment of the Universal Health Care (UHC) marked


one of the biggest milestones in the history of the Philippine
Health Sector. This paved the way for the commencement of
significant reforms across the healthcare systems of the
country, to ensure that every Filipino has equitable access to
quality and affordable health care products, devices, facilities,
and services without facing financial hardships, particularly
the poor and marginalized members of our society. Aimed at
attaining a more responsive healthcare system and a more
equitable financing health mechanism, UHC espouses a
holistic approach bettering the delivery of services, and
underscores the significant role of a systematic approach, with
clear delineation of roles of key agencies and stakeholders.

Among the pipeline of significant reforms in improving the


accessibility of health products are the implementation of a
more streamlined and cost-effective Procurement and Supply Chain Management System
(PCSM), capacity building for more competent, professional, and accountable human
resource for strategic engagement with the private sector, and the implementation of
Electronic Health Commodities Logistic Management Information System. These reforms
play a crucial role in ensuring that we deliver quality products and services, by securing the
availability and appropriate placement of critical health assets wherever they are needed.

In line with the ongoing reforms in the Department of Health (DOH), guidelines for supply
management are a critical component towards promoting accessibility to quality health
products at all service delivery points. Hence, this Warehouse Operations Manual (WOM), as
an essential part of supply and chain management, has been reviewed and updated with
standards that will be critical in delineating roles and responsibilities of the entire supply
workforce, and harmonise the concept of managing health commodities across all warehouses
managed by the government.

It is thus my fervent hope that the effort exhausted in the updating of this manual will effect
positive changes for the realisation of a healthier, stronger Philippines. Together, let us create
more responsive, more sustainable, and more equitable health systems and communities, for
the benefit of every Juan and Juana.

Chain Management Service in coordination with the Regional Supply Officers and our partners
from USAID - Medicines, Technologies and Pharmaceutical Services (MTaPS). This manual was
created to establish a system with streamlined processes to guide warehouse workforce in
performing their daily operational tasks. Likewise, this also aims to provide guidance to the
warehouses of both Centers for Health Development and the Local Government Units (LGUs)
to ensure safe and efficient distribution of health care commodities within their area of
jurisdiction.

in
We hope that through this manual, we will be able to
institute the much needed reform
the management, monitoring and distribution of drugs, medicines, and health supplies and
prevent over or undersupply, expiration and wastage and ultimately support the health service
delivery directive of the enhanced FOURmula ONE Plus (F1+) Strategy towards achieving the
Universal Health Care (UHC) by ensuring the availability of essential quality health services at
appropriate levels of care especially for the poor as well as strengthening good governance in
health through improvement and innovations in the entire supply chain management system.

FOREWORD

In line with the thrust of the Department of Health on UHC Act implementation and in
support of the further devolution of the health sector, the Supply Chain Management
Service developed these set of standards for warehouse management as an important
part of the Supply Chain Management as a support to Service Delivery of Health
Programs. This is to ensure the availability, and accessibility of safe and effective health
commodities across the country. The SCMS team assumes the technical leadership and
steers the coordination of initiatives to strengthen the country’s Supply Chain
Management, from the national down to the local government level, which ultimately
aims to ensure the delivery of patient-centered quality care.

Standardization of processes and key areas of warehouse management isa step towards
ensuring uniformity of warehouse processes atall levels of supply chain in preparation
to achieving digitalization of supply management processes. This is through the
implementation of the Electronic Logistics Management Information System (eLMIS)
which will provide a more efficient, real-time, accurate data gathering and data
management for monitoring, evaluation of the country’s supply chain for a more
informed decision making.

- INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND

The Department of Health (DOH) dedicates its time in rendering health services to
all the citizens of our nation and so therefore, proper management of Health
Commodities that the government procure are of vital importance in order to
maintain the quality and potency during its storage and distribution. It is a primary
commitment of the Department to provide safe and efficient health commodities to
all Filipino in a timely manner through this initiative in fostering the Supply Chain
Management.

As part of improving the Supply Chain Management in the Department, the


Warehouse Operations Manual (WOM) is written to standardize warehouse
processes across all levels of supply chain and achieve seamless operations to
support health services implemented by Public Health Programs. The WOM
indicates standard processes on managing logistics which will be important in the
preparation for automation pertinent to the Section 36 of the Implementing Rules
and Regulations of the Republic Act No. 11223 otherwise known as the “Universal
Health Care Act” indicating that electronic health commodities logistics
management information system shall be implemented.

The WOM is written in a simple and straightforward manner which clarifies


operational tasks per position and per function. Every person will be clearly
accountable for specific tasks within the warehouse with the intention of
harmonizing all logistics operations of the government for health commodities.

1.2 PURPOSE OF THE MANUAL


The purpose of this manual is to serve as general guideline for warehouse officials
of the Government when carrying out their specific duties and responsibilities based
on applicable local and international standards. This manual standardizes the
procedures, accountabilities and responsibilities of warehouse staff in a step-by-step
manner.

1.3 USERS OF THE MANUAL


Users of this manual include all officials/employees and managers of various
warehouses/storerooms managed by the Department of Health, its offices/units and
attached agencies, Centers for Health Development, the Bangsamoro Autonomous
Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) and Local Government Units carrying
health commodities.

PART II - GUIDING PRINCIPLES
2.1 THE SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
The country’s health system cannot efficiently implement health services without a
well-planned and well-operated supply chain management system that maintains
availability and accessibility of health commodities atthe point of care. Supply chain
management encompasses the planning and management of all activities involved
in sourcing, procurement and logistics. Importantly, italso includes coordination and
collaboration with channel partners, which can be suppliers, intermediaries, third
party service providers, and customers. In essence, supply chain management
integrates supply and demand management within and across companies and
organizations’.

The supply management in DOH includes the following processes: needs


assessment, product selection, procurement, warehousing, distribution, use and
monitoring & tracking.

deliveries are properly managed. This
is the process where requests for
deliveries are assessed based on the
storage capacity, products’ storage
requirements and other warehouse activities.

2 Inspection and Receiving: The process of


inspecting and receiving commodities upon arrival
through routine delivery activities. This is the
process where quantity and quality of delivered
products are checked against the delivery
documents, contract, technical specifications, and
other legal standards prior to acceptance.

Put-Away: The process of transferring


the commodities from the receiving area to
the identified location for storage in the
warehouse. This is the process where
received products are handled using
warehouse equipment in accordance with
proper techniques ensuring that stocks are
placed on locations appropriate to their
storage requirements.
