We invite submissions for the Pharmaceutical Enterprise Systems and
Supply Chain Management Systems mini-track at the 20th Americas
Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS) to be held in Savanna
Georgia on August 7-10, 2014.

Pharmaceutical industry processes have some specific characteristics,
and Pharmaceutical supply chain is more complex rather than many of
industries. Product characterization, regulatory requirements, cost
considerations, quality assurance and compliance, different margin of
patent products and generics and special storage condition of
biopharmaceuticals are some of issues that influence organizational
processes in pharmaceutical filed. In addition of mentioned items,
some other issues such as new delivery methods including direct to
patient (DTP) for some special drug affect managing the supply chain.
Using Information Systems can have a significant role in handling
these issues by managing and integrating data and information among
the organization and its value chain. Therefore, designing and
implementation of enterprise systems and supply chain management
systems are very important in this era.
Possible topics:
*	Advanced application in improvement of pharmaceutical processes
*	Expert systems and DSS applications in Pharmaceutical industry
*	Handling direct to patient by using information system applications
*	Pharmaceutical information system implementation success and failure
*	Regulatory concerns in implementation of Pharmaceutical information systems
*	Pharmaceutical information systems integration
*	Data & Information integration in pharmaceutical supply chain
*	Pharmaceutical supply chain efficiency and effectiveness
*	Pharmaceutical supply chain evaluation factors
*	Using big data in pharmaceutical R&D
*	Pattern recognition and classification of patient behaviors
*	Using process mining in pharmaceutical industry
