Orbital RX - Enterprise Drug Shortage Software

Overview

OrbitalRX is on a mission to ensure a reliable supply of essential medicines by empowering pharmacy leaders with proactive medication shortage mitigation tools. Founded by experienced health system pharmacy leaders, the company addresses the critical need for evidence-based information and real-time inventory visibility in a supply-chain-dependent pharmaceutical landscape.

Challenge

Managing drug shortages is a persistent challenge for hospitals, often requiring staff to scramble through disparate data sources and manual spreadsheets. OrbitalRX needed to transition from founder-led sales to a scalable market outreach strategy that could effectively reach pharmacy leaders in diverse healthcare settings, from small community hospitals to large enterprise health systems.
