Abstract:
Background. Despite the relevance of cold chain management in maintaining the potency of vaccines, gaps still exist in the ability of healthcare practitioners to maintain the cold chain system effectively. Thus, the current study sought to assess healthcare providers’ knowledge, attitudes, practices, and challenges regarding cold chain management. Methods. A concurrent mixed methods study was conducted at twelve facilities in the Sekyere Central District of Ghana. Eighty-six (86) participants took part in a survey that assessed their “cold chain management” knowledge and attitudes. Twelve (12) cold chain sites within the district were also observed in respect of their cold chain management practices. Eleven key informants were additionally interviewed to explore their challenges on cold chain management. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive (frequencies, percentages, means, standard deviations, ranges) and inferential statistics (Spearman’s rho correlation). Qualitative data were inductively analyzed into themes which described participants’ challenges on cold chain management. Results. Majority of the participants scored ≥70% on knowledge (68.6%) and attitudes (67.4%) toward cold chain management. However, there was a very weak positive and statistically insignificant relationship between participant’s knowledge and attitudes toward cold chain management ( r = 0.109 , p = 0.317 ). Regarding cold chain management practices, majority of the facilities had their vaccine vial monitors attached to the vaccines (8/12, 66.7%), had functional fridge tags (8/12, 66.7%), and an appropriate refrigerator to store vaccines (7/12, 58.3%). However, the study observed that 91.7% (11/12) of the facilities did not have policies and guidelines on cold chain management while all 12 facilities (100%) did not have a contingency plan in place for equipment. With regards to the cold chain management challenges, participants raised concerns about inadequate personnel, erratic power supply, logistical constraints, and transportation difficulties. Conclusion. Although majority of the participants had good knowledge and attitude towards cold chain management, there was a weak association between them. This implies that good knowledge may not necessarily influence good attitudes towards cold chain management and vice versa. The extent to which facilities support cold chain management practices was suboptimal. Participants encountered a number of challenges which prevented them from managing the vaccine cold chain system effectively. We recommend continual professional education for cold chain practitioners, provision of adequate human and material resources for cold chain management, and enhanced monitoring and evaluation of cold chain activities. Future studies should quantitatively measure individual participants’ knowledge, attitudes, practices, and challenges on cold chain management so that we can establish the relationships that exist between these components.

Abstract:
Background: Vaccine potency can be lost when exposed to non-recommended temperatures. Hence for the proper running of the universal immunization programme (UIP) factors like vaccine cold chain and vaccine management wants great focus and attention skills and knowledge of the vaccine cold chain handlers so for good implementation of UIP vaccine cold chain handlers are important.Methods: This was an observational cross-sectional study. Study duration was carried out from October 2017 to March 2018. All the 16 cold chain handlers of district Etawah were interviewed.Results: All 16 (100.0%) were male and 1 (6.3%), 2 (12.5%), 8 (50.0%) and 5 (31.3%) of the respondents were high schools, intermediate, graduate, and post-graduate respectively. It had been observed that the hundred percent of the cold chain handlers with the knowledge of vaccine cold chain. It has been observed from the study that 15 (93.7%) cold chain handlers had knowledge of temperature range for vaccine storage.Conclusions: Quality of immunization program depends upon cold chain management at peripheral health institutions. In our study, we have found that most of the vaccine handlers were reported to have appropriate knowledge regarding the cold chain.

Abstract:
Purpose Generic business process models for the supply chain do not cover the specific requirements of the cold chain catering to the needs of temperature-sensitive, perishable goods. The purpose of this paper is to draft a reference model specific to the cold chain. Design/methodology/approach Following an object-oriented modeling approach, conceptual elements that have been synthesized from a literature review are transferred into the static view (object model) of the reference model. In addition, the reference model’s dynamic properties representing the business process view are outlined. Findings While a few atomic process steps are sufficient to model the cold chain’s dynamic properties, the complexity of the cold chain lies in the object model. The classes of the object model are highly interrelated and cover four domains: perishable product, information technology, infrastructure/equipment and regulatory framework. This technical approach is more adequate to the complex nature of cold chains than typical business process models. Research limitations/implications In the present draft status, the reference model is limited by the pure conceptual approach of this paper. As it is in the nature of things for a draft of a reference model, case studies to challenge the draft and a discourse of experts are required before detailed specifications can be added or any software implementation can be started. It is expected that the reference model is able to substantially support further research on cold chain design and optimization. Practical implications The cold chain reference model is intended to be a standard toolbox for planning and evaluating cold chains. By integrating the technical, information technology and regulatory objects behind the business processes, it allows to design and analyze cold chains from a more holistic perspective. Originality/value To the best knowledge of the author, this paper is the first to outline a reference model for the cold chain that goes beyond the business processes.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze how far technology and information enable, facilitate or support the planning and implementation decisions in humanitarian vaccine cold chains for vaccination campaigns. The authors specifically focus on three emerging technologies that have the potential to create more flexible conditions in the field, and identify the need to further explore the link between uncertainty, information and irreversibility. Design/methodology/approach The authors present a basic structure for the analysis of cold chain disruptions in terms of three distinct yet connected layers of deficient infrastructure and capacity, information gaps and failures in decision making. The authors then review three humanitarian technologies and their impact on vaccine campaigns along these layers. From there, a research agenda is developed to address research gaps this review brought forward. Findings Three critical research gaps in the areas of technology innovation for humanitarian vaccine cold chain management are presented. The authors argue that technology to improve capacity, information and decisions need to be aligned, and that the areas of uncertainty, information and irreversibility require further investigation to achieve this alignment. In this way, the paper contributes to setting the research agenda on vaccine cold chains and connects humanitarian logistics to technology, information management and decision making. Originality/value This paper presents the humanitarian vaccine cold chain problem from an original angle by illuminating the implications of technology and information on the decisions made during the planning and implementation phases of a vaccine campaign. The authors develop an agenda to provide researchers and humanitarians with a perspective to improve cold chain planning and implementation at the intersection of technology, information and decisions.

Abstract:
Background: Immunization success rates can be determined by several factors. The factors that can cause occurrences of immunization preventable disease (PD3I) cases include the quality of the cold chain and invalid doses of immunization medicines. Purpose: The aim of this research was to analyze the implementation of cold chain management in the city of Surabaya. Methods: This research was conducted as a descriptive study with a cross-sectional research design. The population consisted of all primary health care centers in the city of Surabaya, and the data used were secondary data, guided by interviews with informants. Results: The majority of cold chain management personnel were found to have a medical education background of 98.42%, and primary health care workers have received cold chain-related training (100%). All primary health care equipment has a 100% cold chain. The completeness of cold chain reporting was 93.51%, and the accuracy of the cold chain reporting was 71.52%. Regarding the quality of the equipment, some vaccine refrigerators were found 12% of vaccine refrigerators were found not to be in optimal condition, and 14% of temperature monitoring devices was not activated. Conclusion: The implementation of cold chain management in public health center and the availability of equipment in the Surabaya City are going well, although there are still some problems such as undisciplined reporting and inadequate quality of tools for cold chain implementation as well as the discovery of vaccine refrigerators easily leaks, and their temperature can rise easily.

Abstract:
Purpose – Cold chain has become an integral part of the supply chain domain. The purpose of this paper is to consider all the significant factors in a single study. This will result into a better model to study the effectiveness of a cold chain because there has been absence of such an integrated study. Design/methodology/approach – The basis of the factors is justified by performing extensive literature review. Inter relations are drawn based on critical analysis of each factor and its implications on cold chain. Bayesian Network is used to develop the model. Findings – The end result is an established model, depicting the interdependencies of the factors. The model ultimately provides effectiveness of a given cold chain when the corresponding values of factors are put in. Practical implications – The findings will be helpful for government and non-government bodies to analyse the effectiveness of a cold chain. This can be used to increase the performance of different stages in the cold chain. From a business perspective, an investor can analyse the cold chains of various geographies in order to make an investment decision. Originality/value – The value lies in developing and introducing new factors which were not considered in the related literature previously. To identify the inter relations among the factors in order to build a causal model is another contribution of the present paper. This would assist in decision-making process with respect to any given cold chain. It can be applied to any cold chain as proposed model is not specific to a particular country or material.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.B.A.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management; and, (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Chemical Engineering; in conjunction with the Leaders for Global Operations Program at MIT, 2011.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 63).<br>The Vaccines & Diagnostics (V&D) division of Novartis recently developed a global automation strategy that highlights the need to implement a manufacturing execution system (MES). Benefits of an MES (electronic production records) include enhancing the compliance position of the organization, reducing production delays, and improving process flexibility; however, implementing an MES at global manufacturing sites presents unique logistical challenges that need to be overcome. The goal of this thesis is to investigate cold chain management as an expanded functionality for an MES. The thesis attempts to identify best practices for the strategic implementation of an MES in the management of cold chain vaccine products. While the concepts presented in this thesis are in the context of managing the cold chain for vaccine products, the best practices can be applied to a variety of cold chain management scenarios. In order to generate best practice recommendations for the strategic implementation of a cold chain management MES, a thorough understanding of the manufacturing process will need to be acquired. The first tool used to gain this understanding was value-stream mapping (VSM). VSM provided some insight into the current paper-based cold chain management system; however, the tool was not applicable for understanding the flow of information generated within the cold chain management system. Another tool was used to enable the organization to focus on the data generated by a process, the information product map (IP-Map). Current-state IP-Maps of the cold chain at the Rosia, Italy, site were generated and numerous areas for improving the data quality were identified. Future-state IP-Maps of the cold chain at the Rosia, Italy, site were generated to demonstrate how the implementation of a cold chain MES could improve the shortcomings of the current system. The future-state IP-Maps were based on underlying assumptions that directly lead to recommendations for the cold chain MES implementation. First, a unit of measurement smaller than lot size must be selected for tracking material data in the MES. Second, data capture technology for material entering or leaving cold storage must be integrated with the MES.<br>by Todd Andrew Waldron.<br>S.M.<br>M.B.A.

Title: The Cold Chain Management in Supermarket-- Case Study on the Fresh Food Logistics in a supermarket Level: Final assignment for Master Degree in Logistics and Innovation Management Supervisor: Kaisu Sammalisto Date: June, 2011 Aim: The purpose of the paper is to research the cold chain management in supermarket by illustrating the case of a supermarket in Sweden. It aims to find out how the supermarket handles the fresh food cold chain by the perspective of cost and effectiveness. Method: The qualitative method was used in this paper, and the interview with the manager of the supermarket was conducted. The face to face interview provides the first hand information to the study. Neergaard et al (2007) state that qualitative approach is the best way to use to generalize the empirical investigations. To improve the validity, related literature was studied to get an initial idea about the research question. Result &amp; Conclusions: The supermarket applies the simplicity strategy on the control of the fresh food cold chain. The unnecessary cost was cut down because of the simplicity strategy. Also, the local suppliers play an important role in the cost reduction. To improve the effectiveness, the supermarket uses the distribution centers and 3rd party logistics (3PL) to conduct integrated logistics.

The study aims to identify which performance appraisal system is currently used in The Cold Chain, how this system compare with the fundamental requirements of a successful appraisal system and what requirements can be adopted to make the way in which Team Leaders are appraised more effective. An introduction into The Cold Chain, the identification of the problem and the relevance of the study is followed by a literature overview of performance management, the role of performance appraisals and the requirements for a successful performance appraisal system. Various appraisal systems, problems associated with performance appraisals and a framework for the development of an efficient system is discussed. Research conducted using a questionnaire sent to Team Leaders in The Cold Chain, delivered results which were analysed and discussed in Chapter four. In addition to biographical information, the function, effectiveness, evaluator involvement, objectives and criteria, requirements for performance appraisals, organisational alignment and evaluator faults were discussed. It was found that the current performance appraisal system in use at Mercor is a trait scale system. A trait scale method of performance appraisals does not reflect measurement against clearly defined job criteria and is difficult to legally defend. The essential elements for successful appraisal systems such as reliability, relevance, sensitivity, uncontaminated information, acceptability, practicality and legality will be present in a 360-degree approach and the implementation of such a system in Mecor was recommended.

Abstract:
Supply chain management (SCM) practitioners who ship temperature-sensitive diagnostic medical devices (DMDs) to clinicians must use effective cold chain management (CCM) strategies to avoid temperature excursions that contribute to medical device errors. Such errors have caused patient harm and death, which costs the U.S. health care system billions of dollars per year. The purpose of this qualitative multiple case study was to explore strategies for selecting and managing cold chain shipping solutions (CCSSs) requiring SCM executives to trade cost for regulatory compliance and predictability when mitigating temperature variations that occur during shipping. The conceptual framework for the study was the 6-change approaches, and its underpinnings that framed the exploration into the strategies some medical device executives use for shipping temperature-sensitive DMD tests and controls. Data were collected from in-depth interviews, field notes, and existing literature. The target population was 3 SCM executives working in California, New Jersey, and Ireland with at least 5 years of CCM experience in the medical device industry. A purposive sampling procedure guided the selection of participants for in-depth interviews. The data analysis included pattern matching techniques, central analysis, and collapse analysis. The results of this study indicated 3 successful strategies: validation of CCSSs, compliant shipping of DMDs, and CCM best practices. The study was socially significant because the findings may prevent medical device failures that have caused U.S. Food and Drug Administration recalls and patient harm.

Abstract:
>Magister Scientiae - MSc<br>The Northern Cape province has not been able to achieve the 90% immunization target recommended for South Africa’s expanded programme on immunisation (EPI). The situation has been attributed to the lack of access to EPI in the rural community. The Northern Cape’s poor infrastructure renders the provision of equitable preventive care service to rural communities a complex and costly task. The province is predominantly a rural setting consisting of farmland, with low population densities, and many residents have poor access to public transport to receive primary health care services from surrounding fixed or satellite clinics. Consequently, mothers often do not adhere to the immunization schedules, and lack awareness of the risks associated with the failure to have their infants vaccinated against communicable diseases. EPI services delivered via mobile clinics serve the primary health care needs for rural communities, but their sustainability remains a challenge. Additional barriers are found in literature which highlighted the shortage of health professionals, unreliable funding, limited transportation within rural areas and deficiencies in maintenance and suitability of mobile clinic vehicles.

The concept is based on empirical and experimental studies. It analyses challenges of the cross regional transportation by taking a case analysis of a pharmaceutical company vaccine distributes from United Kingdom to Taiwan and introduce a general concept of supply chain and cold chain management as well. One of a method used in this research was to perform a case study of a newly launch vaccine shipping from United Kingdom to Taiwan in summer and winter. The study analyses the cold chain distribution temperature condition risk on this temperature sensitive product which require the storage requirement of 2-8°C during the entire transportation route. The result and conclusion of the research indicate temperature management is the key factor that contributed success in cold chin distribution. The aim of the requirements is to keep the temperature steady. Any error could potentially lead to serious consequences from product quality efficacy / degradation to product wastage.

Abstract:
Africa is flush with natural resources, a population over one billion, a rich cultural history, and all the elements of a robust economy that still struggles with the basics. Its reliance on natural resources and the lack of resource management in a transparent and acceptable manner has led to discontent and conflict. It has the opportunity to reboot its economies by embracing value-added positions in the natural resources value chain by providing finished products instead of just the raw material. It could also offer itself as a low-cost manufacturing location to the rest of the world. Signs of more transparent governance and management of resources are being seen which will eventually lead to a path of growth. Africa’s geographical location, in the middle of three major markets; Asia, America, and Europe, gives it an attractive competitive advantage. Africa is poised to drive its emerging economy soundly on to the world stage.
