QR Scanned Pharmacy Dispensing and FEFO Compliance
A traceable dispensing and stock-control workflow that turns QR adoption, expiry verification and FEFO discipline into management evidence.
The challenge
Manual batch and expiry verification created avoidable gaps at the point of issue. Pharmacy leaders also needed a defensible way to compare QR and normal dispensing performance across facilities and users.
What I built
I developed QR-enabled medicine issue and return workflows with inventory barcoding, batch visibility, expiry capture, QR stock taking and variance reporting. I then built an audit dashboard that separates QR from normal issues and reconstructs expiry and FEFO references from stock and purchase detail records.
How the organisation benefits
The solution strengthens stock discipline, traceability and management oversight. In the measured window, QR dispensing averaged 5.7 minutes versus 9.1 minutes for normal issue, while full FEFO compliance showed a 2.1-point lift. The dashboard makes adoption, turnaround time, expiry verification and reference coverage visible enough for daily action.
Delivery reality
Transformation evidence must be defensible. I designed the comparison around repeatable data lineage and clearly distinguished enforced QR controls from retrospective normal-issue alignment.
System narrative
This management view brings speed and stock discipline into the same conversation. It separates QR and normal issue activity, presents the adoption rate and makes the turnaround-time difference visible without requiring leaders to inspect transaction-level records.
The compliance cards connect each headline back to the underlying audit logic. That gives pharmacy and procurement leaders a practical view of where QR controls are working, where references are missing and where rollout support should be focused.
I designed the methodology view so that reported gains can be challenged and verified. It explains how dispense completion is matched, how actual expiry is recovered and why normal issue is described as retrospective alignment rather than enforced compliance.
This distinction protects the credibility of the dashboard. Management can use the measures in leadership discussions while technical and pharmacy teams retain a clear audit trail back to the operational records.
