The Strategic Challenge: Complex Pharmaceutical Retail License and Contract Management
Primary Pain Points:
Manual Property and License Management: Complex tracking of 350+ store licenses, lease agreements, and regulatory compliance requirements across multiple state jurisdictions creating operational inefficiencies
Rent Escalation Complexity: Manual calculation of rent escalations and lease obligation tracking consuming significant administrative resources and creating cash flow management challenges
License Renewal Chaos: Managing diverse pharmaceutical licenses, drug permits, and regulatory requirements for each store location without automated reminders or centralized tracking
Cash Flow Management Issues: Manual tracking of security deposits, refunds, and financial obligations leading to delayed recoveries and working capital inefficiencies
Version Control Failures: Contract negotiations and documentation management lacking proper version control and collaboration frameworks
Business Impact:
₹18.7 crores annual estimated cost of manual administrative processes and compliance inefficiencies
67% administrative overhead consuming pharmacy management capacity across store operations
Regulatory compliance risks from manual license tracking across multiple state jurisdictions
Cash flow impact from delayed security deposit recoveries and lease management inefficiencies
