Operations · Picking · Returns
This page covers operational order processing in our own Cheb facility, from goods receipt and stock status to picking, pack checks, returns and dispatch preparation. The strategic outsourcing decision and 3PL operating model are covered on the dedicated pharmaceutical 3PL page.

Structured goods receipt, identity and quantity checks, quarantine and release status, batch traceability, expiry monitoring and FIFO or FEFO principles create reliable inventory and auditable product movements.
Order-based picking, pack verification, suitable shipping packaging, labelling, inserts, kitting and handover to qualified transport partners are organised around the product and target market.
Depending on the regulatory framework, repacking, relabelling, promotional kits, display assembly, serialisation and master-data processes, plus customer-specific documentation, can be integrated into the logistics concept.
Defined workflows for returned goods, status assessment, blocked inventory, destruction interfaces, recall support and deviation handling keep non-releasable or unclear stock safely segregated.
Temperature zones and cold rooms, continuous monitoring, alarm and escalation routes, access controls, documented cleaning, pest monitoring and risk-based security concepts are aligned with products and operating model.
Explicit temperature requirements are derived from the product and quality framework. 15–25 °C is used only where the verified project profile requires it; 2–8 °C remains a project-specific option, not a general capacity promise. Mapping, calibrated monitoring, alarms, contingency routes and deviation status are agreed before start-up.
Onboarding covers product, volume, temperature and status profiles, the regulatory framework, process and data interfaces, quality and contract boundaries, test stock with reconciliation, and a documented go-live. Inter-Pharma's own activities and qualified partner activities remain visibly separated.
Pharmaceutical contract logistics becomes reliable only when product, regulatory framework, temperature, volume profile, data and responsibilities are defined together.
Inter-Pharma provides warehousing, inventory control, picking, pack verification and dispatch preparation in Cheb within the agreed project scope. Acceptance of individual product groups, 2–8 °C requirements and special security or release status is verified before contracting.
Transport, express, customs and specialised logistics modules are added through qualified partners where required. Interfaces, responsibilities, quality agreements, evidence and escalation are kept visibly separate from our own operations.
We need product type, temperature, SKU and volume profile, inbound and order flows, batch and expiry requirements, target countries, recipients, value-added services, interfaces and desired start. The handover also defines stock reconciliation, data ownership, deviation and recall evidence, cut-off, rollback and the first operational review. Unconfirmed capacity or lead times are not published.
Submit a structured pharmaceutical 3PL enquiry →Warehousing, inventory control, picking, pack verification and dispatch preparation are performed operationally in Cheb within the agreed project scope.
Transport, express, customs and specialised logistics modules may be provided by qualified partners. Scope and responsibility are separated in the proposal and quality documentation.
Product and stock-status rules, interfaces, batch and expiry handling, inbound, picking, dispatch, returns, recall evidence, reconciliation, deviations and rollback are tested against agreed expected results before routine operation.
A 2–8 °C requirement is assessed project by project against product, volume, access, monitoring, contingency and onward process. No blanket capacity promise is made.

pharmaceutical contract logistics is relevant when product, regulatory status, temperature, volume, recipients, target markets and required process steps need to be assessed together. Inter-Pharma confirms the exact scope only after this project review.
At minimum, provide product type and status, temperature range, average and maximum stock, SKU and movements, recipients and destination countries, requested start, interfaces and additional services.
Order processing from confirmed order through picking and pack checks to handover. Warehouse capacity and transport are separate service components.
An agreed order and data flow with cut-offs, FEFO rules, packing specifications, status reporting and returns process.
We structure your needs and connect the right partners and processes.

Workflow; checks and release follow product requirements and the quality agreement.
The specific allocation of responsibilities is agreed before the project starts.
