Pharmacy Distribution Consulting Services

The University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa, is seeking pharmacy distribution assessment and consulting services to evaluate its current pharmacy distribution program. The agency is trying to solve the problem of determining whether the University currently possesses competitive rates and structures within the market. To address this, the agency requires an external partner to analyze existing operations, compare them against market data, and advise on areas for improvement. The scope of work covers a current state assessment, market benchmarking, and financial analysis. The selected partner must also provide strategic advisory and optimization services, data analytics, performance measurement, and competitive bid support and contracting. The agency requires all performance of the work to be conducted offsite. Eligibility is strictly limited to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency is looking for budget proposals from bidders to determine the cost of the project, rather than providing a pre-determined budget limit. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 30, 2026.
