Pune pilot for pharma distributors

Cut last-mile delivery cost
without changing how wholesalers sell.

Audel consolidates last-mile pharma deliveries from multiple wholesalers into a single pharmacy drop, cutting delivery costs by up to 30% with zero disruption to existing operations.

Why This Matters

Pharma distributors are losing money on fragmented last-mile delivery.

The commercial pain is simple: too many overlapping routes, too little route density, too little visibility into service quality, and too much manual coordination around the same delivery clusters.

Duplicate routes burn margin

Multiple wholesalers keep sending separate vehicles into the same pharmacy clusters. The cost stacks up, but the customer still experiences a fragmented service.

Low drop density kills efficiency

When each route carries too few productive stops, delivery cost per order rises fast. Most distributors feel that pressure but do not have a shared way to fix it.

Route planning stays reactive

Dispatch teams keep solving the same clusters manually, which keeps delivery decisions reactive instead of route-led.

Service quality is hard to measure

Late deliveries, route inconsistency, and pharmacy frustration often show up as churn and stockout complaints, not as a clean operational dashboard.

Commercial result: higher delivery cost, weaker service consistency, and less control over route performance.
How It Works

How Audel fits into the existing workflow.

The model is designed to sit beneath the current wholesaler and pharmacy relationship, not replace it. The pilot exists to prove whether shared delivery infrastructure actually improves route economics and service quality in the field.

01

Pharmacies keep ordering as usual

Audel does not ask pharmacies to change wholesalers or change how they buy. Existing procurement relationships stay intact.

02

Selected routes are pooled for the pilot

For agreed Pune clusters, delivery requests are grouped so overlapping wholesaler routes can be consolidated into a cleaner last-mile model.

03

Audel plans and executes the route

The delivery layer handles batching, route planning, and last-mile execution across the agreed cluster.

04

Operational data is captured during the run

Each pilot route is tracked against cost, route density, service consistency, and on-time performance.

Measured in the field
05

You get a pilot review, not hand-waving

At the end of 30 days, you get a clear view of where the model improved delivery economics, where it did not, and what rollout would look like.

Decision-ready output
Who Benefits

What changes for wholesalers.
What improves for pharmacies.

Lower cost per productive route

The pilot is built to test whether shared route density can reduce cost per drop across overlapping pharmacy clusters.

Better service without a heavy systems project

The operating model is meant to improve service levels without forcing an ERP rollout or a complicated tech integration before validation.

Clearer operating visibility

The output is a route-level view of delivery performance, service consistency, and where the current model is leaking cost.

No loss of commercial control

Pricing, inventory ownership, and the wholesaler-pharmacy relationship stay with the wholesaler throughout the pilot.

The goal is simple: improve the shared delivery layer without asking wholesalers to give up commercial control.

This is a delivery layer, not a marketplace
Audel is designed to improve route economics and service quality beneath existing procurement relationships, not displace them.
The pilot is operationally lightweight
No ERP integration, no inventory transfer, and no major change-management exercise before you can test the model on real routes.
The output is decision-ready
You get route-level operating evidence on cost, service, and route performance instead of generic promise language.
No inventory, no data risk
We never hold inventory or access sensitive sales data. Wholesalers retain full control of their business.
What The Pilot Should Prove

Serious buyers need operating evidence, not generic upside.

These are the measures the pilot should answer before anyone talks about a wider rollout.

The goal is not to validate interest. It is to measure whether shared delivery infrastructure improves cost, service quality, and route consistency on live pharmacy routes.

No ERP integration. No inventory transfer. No forced change to how pharmacies buy. Just a controlled pilot with clear inputs, clear outputs, and a decision at the end.

If the route math is weak, you will know quickly.

If the model works, you get a path to continue month-to-month with transparent pricing. If it does not, you still leave with a clearer view of your delivery economics.
