Since our last newsletter in July 2024, the Partnership for Supply Chain Management has enjoyed a productive period.

In the last several months, we have supported our clients with their antimicrobial resistance and mpox outbreak responses by providing market landscaping services. We have expanded our supplier base and rapidly made prequalified products available to be procured by our clients and their recipients and grantees.

We concluded many of the sustainability and staff wellness initiatives that we had planned for 2024 and submitted our biennial Communication on Engagement to the UN Global Compact. You can read our submission below and click on Sustainability to view our other accomplishments.

We also joined the AIDS 2024 conference in Munich at the end of July and had the pleasure of connecting with many of our clients and peers from the global health community.

On the topic of HIV, our core procurement, supply chain, and logistics activities have remained strong and steady this year. By mid-year, we had already delivered more than $218 million worth of prevention, testing, and treatment products for HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria. In total, more than 1,121 shipments were delivered to 72 countries in desperate need of these critical health products.

Despite growing regional conflicts, we are working closely with our logistics services providers to ensure that health products, including time—and temperature-sensitive products like reagents and large equipment like X-rays and autoclaves, reach health facilities in countries experiencing hardships and unrest.

In the newsletter below we share some of our organizational highlights since the end of July. Our next newsletter will be available at the end of 2024. Please forward this newsletter to your colleagues and friends so they, too, can subscribe to learn more about the work PFSCM is doing as a nonprofit supply chain services provider.
