Indian pharmaceutical sector supplies over 50% of global demand for various vaccines, 40% of generic demand in the US and 25% of all medicine in the UK. The domestic pharmaceutical industry includes a network of 3,000 drug companies and 10,500 manufacturing units. India enjoys an important position in the global pharmaceuticals sector. The country also has a large pool of scientists and engineers with a potential to steer the industry ahead to greater heights. Presently, over 80% of the antiretroviral drugs used globally to combat AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) are supplied by Indian pharmaceutical firms. India is rightfully known as the "pharmacy of the world" due to the low cost and high quality of its medicines.
The Pharmaceutical industry in India is the third largest in the world in terms of volume and 14th largest in terms of value. The Pharma sector currently contributes to around 1.72% of the country’s GDP.
According to the government data, the Indian pharmaceutical industry is worth approximately US$ 50 billion with over US$ 25 billion of the value coming from exports. About 20% of the global exports in generic drugs are met by India.
Also, As India reeled under the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, its healthcare sector rose to the challenge. India was hailed as the world’s pharmacy and the government also reoriented its policies towards making the country self-reliant in terms of vaccines, drugs, medical devices, and equipment. Meeting the challenges posed by the pandemic has helped build a foundation for the healthcare sector to gather pace in the future.
The pharmaceutical industry stands as a beacon of innovation, providing life-saving medications and treatments to countless individuals worldwide. However, behind the scenes of this cutting-edge sector lies an essential yet often unsung hero: facility management.
Facility management in pharmaceutical manufacturing is far more than just keeping the floors clean. It is a critical component of ensuring that pharmaceutical companies meet the highest standards of quality, compliance, and efficiency.
While the repercussions of COVID on the rest of the industries is of one level, its impact on the pharmaceutical industry is altogether at a higher altitude. World is keenly watching the industry with hope and expectations. There is no scope for errors in the entire flow of events in the pharma industry. The pharmaceutical units must adhere to strict facility maintenance regulations that can only be achieved by world-class FM companies.
