Thus, it was given to us during our end-of-study internship within the DPCI, to
carry out a study under the following subject: "REDUCTION OF THE DELAY
IN THE SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION CHAIN OF PHARMACEUTICAL
PRODUCTS AT DPCI”. We chose this theme because it highlights our desire to
improve lead times in the supply and distribution system.
1
I. PROBLEM
One of the missions of the DPCI is to ensure the supply in its agencies and to
distribute drugs throughout the Ivorian territory.
To this end, the DPCI strives to meet the needs of the various customers, which are
pharmacies and health centres. This implies that it must be imperative for it to be
able to manage its supply and the distribution of its products.
1. Report
We noted, from June to December 2020, at the DPCI that the customs clearance
time for importing medicines was 22 days, while the customs code provides for a
period of 10 days.
2. Research Questions
How to improve the procedure for the supply and distribution of pharmaceutical
products?
2
2.2 Secondary questions
Does DPCI have experienced staff to ensure rapid processing of the various
files?
Are the agents of the DPCI periodically trained on the customs clearance
procedure?
The objectives can be divided into general objective and specific objectives
1. Primary objective
The main objective of this study is to improve the procurement procedure and the
distribution of pharmaceutical products.
2. Specific objective
3
Analyze the level of experience of the staff for rapid processing of the
various files;
If the tasks were well distributed between the agents, this would allow the
DPCI to save time in the supply and distribution process.
If the agents were motivated they would be effective and even efficient
1. Documentary research
4
Documentary research is an important step in understanding the objective of the
study. It aims to make an inventory of the productions written previously and
which are directly or indirectly related to the object of the study. In practical terms,
the works consulted can be grouped into three categories. These are works relating
to the problem writing methodology of the study in the field of knowledge of
international trade; works that have been consulted in the library of the AGITEL
FORMATION Engineering Schools Group. In addition, internship reports,
defended dissertations and the internet were also consulted.
2. Qualitative study
2.1 Observation
The observation would be presented as the exact observation of a fact using means
of investigation and studies appropriate to this observation. It consists of noting
from day to day, everything that happens before our eyes, how it happens,
everything that is said and everything that is done.
2.2 Maintenance
Our interview will also take into account the interviews carried out with the
various agents of the secretariat, the operators of the seizures of some regular
customers.
5
In addition, this study will contribute to enriching our knowledge in the field of
maritime transit, and also will support our end-of-cycle dissertation.
On the other hand, this study will show the importance of teamwork; to understand
that we can do everything at the same time. You have to trust and give others the
chance to express themselves. Any agent who feels important in a company is
dedicated to work in order to produce good results.

FIRST PART: FRAMEWORK OF THE STUDY
In this first part, we will present the institutional framework and the procedure for
improving the supply and distribution of pharmaceutical products.

All these health centers participate in the governance plan via the care and
medicines they provide to the population. It is in this context that the DPCI
intervenes, one of whose missions is to ensure the availability of essential drugs
and strategic health inputs for public health establishments and other associated
establishments; And this ; throughout the national territory.
Distribution, being part of this chain, is one of the links where we notice much
more slowness. One of the objectives of logistics being to reduce the details, it will
be useful for the DPCI and for the population who will have quick access to the
drugs.
1. Wholesalers
The private sector does not have a purchasing center established on Ivorian
territory. It thus includes as a first level the wholesale distributors, four in number:
LABOREX-CI (subsidiary of the UBIPHARM group), COPHARMED (of the
EURAPHARMA group), DPCI (CERP Bretagne Atlantique Group) and TEDIS
PHARMA. The latter are affiliated with purchasing centers and logistics platforms
located for the most part in France.

Since the accession of Côte d'Ivoire to national and international sovereignty, the
Ivorian authorities have become aware of the strategic position of drugs in access
to health care; Law No. 60-27 of September 2, 1960, creating a National Order of
Pharmacists; and Law No. 62-249 of July 31, 1962 instituting a code of
pharmaceutical ethics testify to the will of the Ivorian State to organize the
pharmaceutical sector for better accessibility of populations to quality drugs.

CHAPTER II: INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK
In this chapter we will present the presentation of the DPCI and the procedure for
improving the supply and distribution of pharmaceutical products.
I. PRESENTATION OF DPCI

Let's now look at the company's strategy to grow its services, national presence,
revenue and market share while fulfilling its mission as a 21st Century Wholesaler.

CHAPTER III: MANAGEMENT OF SUPPLIES AND DISTRIBUTIONS OF
PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCTS
In this chapter, we will explain how the DPCI manages its main activity
(procurement).
1. Ordering Procedure
The Purchasing Department orders pharmaceutical and parapharmaceutical
products (perfumery, cosmetics, etc.) from European and Local Laboratories.
These orders are placed by email every fortnight according to the minimum
threshold set by the DPCI for each product and according to the sales history in the
various DPCI Agencies.
The Airway: the most used way, is an emergency voice because of its
speed. It concerns low-volume and heat-sensitive products.
The Manufacturer delivers its ordered products to the MEX freight forwarder in
France: HESNAULT, the legal Shipper of the Firm, then the drugs are sent to Côte
d'Ivoire.
15
2. The Purchasing Circuit
The DPCI is a company that uses the strategy of Standardization adapted to
conquer the Ivorian market. 90% of the products are imported and the remaining
10% are local thanks to the various proposals that the Purchasing Manager sends to
the Parent Company.
Transport in Côte d'Ivoire is an area where the country has distinguished itself.
Transport infrastructure is much more developed than in other West African
countries, despite a crisis that has prevented its regular maintenance or
development. Since its accession to independence, Côte d'Ivoire has focused on the
development and modernization of transport, both in terms of the movement of
people and the transit of goods. Significant infrastructure is therefore built in the
sectors of road transport, rail transport, maritime transport and air transport.
1.2. Features
It is done on three levels which are: Road transport, Maritime transport and Air
transport.

second check if there is no conformity between the physical quantities and those in
the machine.
2. Order processing
Once the order has been validated, it is sent to the store in the form of a Delivery
Note.
PARTIAL CONCLUSION
At the end of our first part, we first presented the institutional framework, the
transit sector in Côte d'Ivoire, then the presentation of the DPCI, its operation and
17
the procedure for the supply and distribution of pharmaceutical products to the
CIPD
In this second part we will carry out an internal and external diagnosis and then we
will identify the strategy for improving the supply and distribution of
pharmaceutical products within the DPCI.
18
CHAPTER I: DIAGNOSIS
In this chapter we will carry out an internal and external diagnosis of the procedure
for improving the supply and distribution of pharmaceutical products within the
DPCI.
I. INTERNAL ANALYSIS
Procurement practices plan and control drug flows from the time orders are placed.
Despite all its strengths, we see some weaknesses within the company.
STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES

II. EXTERNAL DIAGNOSIS
The DPCI company is faced with certain situations that could be an opportunity for
growth at different levels of its activity.
Improving conditions in the sector facilitates the circulation of goods and services,
improves access to work and living and working conditions, which can bring new
customers and new markets to the company.
OPPORTUNITIES THREAT
21
III. COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS
1. Customers
The balance of power between the DPCI and the suppliers according to the period
(Dengue fever, Malaria, CMU campaigns, etc.), the line (the sea route) and the
products (standard or special containers).
2. Competitive intensity
The DPCI fears the three (3) wholesalers which are COPHARMED, UBIPHARM
AND TEDIS PHARMA, hence the fierce competition. Every company must use
marketing and sales strategies to attract and retain as many customers as possible
to ensure delivery to all hospitals, clinics and pharmacies.
Several projects are underway to improve or increase port capacity and the country
has enormous economic potential. This could attract other shipowners and
therefore other private structures to the market and pose a threat to the DPCI.
22
CHAPTER II: OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES
In this second chapter we will first present the objectives, the strategies that DPCI
could use to improve the supply and distribution procedure and then the
implementation of its strategies.
1. OBJECTIVES
1.1. Generality
There are basic principles for constructing motivating and involving indicators:
clarity of the thresholds to be reached, objectivity of the measurement, etc.
For greater ease, certain mnemonic methods underline the essential points that
should not be forgotten. This is the case of the method in question: an objective
must be SMART!
That's to say :
Measurable
Realistic
Time bound
2. Study objectives
Improve material resources for better speed in the customs clearance process;
• Improve the level of experience of the staff for rapid processing of the various
files;
23
• Optimize the organization of the DPCI for a better distribution of tasks.
If the objectives are achieved, DPCI should reduce the customs clearance time for
medicines from 36 to 8 days and consequently improve its quality of service.
3. LES STRATEGIES
24
To define realistic objectives, it is necessary to start by prioritizing the requests
according to their reason. Software like MINOS allows the manager to create
processing priority rules by reason or family of reasons for requests
Respect the code of labor law concerning the employment of trainees after a
certain period;
Redial merit ;
2. The distribution
Indeed, with regard to the distribution table, it is a question of establishing for a
team all the tasks to be mastered for each workstation, the list of tasks which must
be carried out in a normal situation of activity so as to :
25
Internal training is a training action organized within the company itself, for its
employees, with trainers who are themselves company employees. It therefore
mobilizes the skills of expert employees, the technical means of the company, to
transmit know-how or knowledge to a group of employees who are more novices
on the subject. “Everything happens in the family” one could say.
4. Staff motivation
It consists of re-motivating staff in order to develop their team spirit; to bring out
their competence and obtain a good financial result.
The culture and the business project: This is really one of the elements that will
allow the employee to invest and especially to last in the company. Being
interested in the different projects allows you to give your all!

PARTIAL CONCLUSION
At the end of our second part, we first made an internal and external analysis of
DPCI, then talked about the strategies that DPCI could put in place to reduce the
customs clearance time for medicines and finally their implementation.
28
GENERAL CONCLUSION
At the end of our study we can remember that it not only allowed us to relate the
theoretical knowledge acquired in class and the reality of the customs clearance
procedure in practice in the company (within DPCI), which now allows us to
understand that a company owes its dynamism only to the trust acquired from its
customers, and customer satisfaction.
But also, to know DPCI, its various services, its operation and the customs
clearance procedure for medicines in Côte d'Ivoire. Then, through our various
studies, we were able to highlight the strengths of DPCI, as well as its weaknesses,
the opportunities it could seize and the threats that could hinder it. And finally to
state the strategies (such as the managerial and logistical strategy) that DPCI could
put in place to reduce the customs clearance time for medicines and their
implementation. Which allows us to say that DPCI has the necessary tools that can
contribute to reducing the customs clearance time for medicines within it.
It should also be noted that for the sake of maximizing turnover, any company
must be competitive. The best remedy is to reduce the customs clearance time for
forwarding companies. This would allow the customer to dispose of their goods as
soon as possible in order to avoid dissatisfaction.
