3PL & Logistics

Win the pharma contract on qualification, not on price.

Winning pharmaceutical logistics contracts means showing up with a validated system, not promising to build one. TempAid gives 3PLs a pre-qualified cold chain offering, with documentation your pharma clients can audit on day one.

What's at stake

For a 3PL, cold chain isn’t a cost line. It’s whether you’re in the deal.

01

Validation is the price of entry

You can't win a pharma logistics contract without a validated system. Promising to get there after signature is no longer enough.

02

Per-client qualification overhead adds up

Every new client with a different temperature range or documentation requirement means another qualification cycle. A flexible pre-validated system eliminates most of that.

03

An excursion becomes your liability

When product is in your network, a cold chain failure is your deviation report. A validated system and documented SOP is the only defensible position.

How TempAid serves this lane

Every capability maps to something your business can win or keep.

01

Bring the qualification to the sales conversation

ISTA-validated across 2–8°C, CRT, and frozen (−15/−25°C). You arrive at the RFP with a complete validation package, not a plan to build one.

02

One system covering multiple clients' profiles

Interchangeable PCM configurations handle different temperature targets from the same depot. One system, one SOP, multiple clients, without per-client requalification.

03

Reusable economics that lift your service margin

Cube is reusable across a defined service life. The reuse economics improve your margin over single-use, and strengthen your ESG story for clients with sustainability commitments.

04

Documentation your clients can white-label

The qualification summary, ISTA reports, and SOP are formatted for pharma QA review. Some clients need to present it as their own, the format supports that.

Lab services

No two shipments are alike.We design for that.

If your shipment needs something the standard product line doesn’t carry, we’ll build it with you. We start by learning your lane, your warehouse conditions, your payload, and your temperature window.

Our in-house lab runs the testing, and we design the pack out around what we find. You get the test data, the qualification documentation, and a pack out built for your specific shipment. You’ll know before you commit.

Let’s Talk
The documentation story

The next time a pharma prospect asks about your cold chain validation, hand them a file, not a timeline.

One package, shareable with every client you serve, formatted for their QA, white-label ready.

01

Master qualification summary

All temperature configurations, shareable with pharma clients as part of your service package.

02

ISTA test report

Temperature-specific, formatted for pharma QA review by your clients.

03

Network SOP

Deployable across depot locations; structured for client audit review.

04

Deviation & excursion templates

Structured for pharma client reporting requirements.

Customer story

A national 3PL stopped losing pharma RFPs on a missing validation file.

The situation

A national 3PL looking to expand into pharmaceutical temperature-controlled logistics as a new service tier.

The problem

They had the warehouse capacity, the network, and pharmaceutical-grade SOPs, but no validated cold chain system to show in an RFP. They lost two pharma contracts in one quarter to 3PLs that could present a validation package on day one.

What TempAid delivered

A Cube + Cube+ fleet for depot operations, an ISTA validation package formatted for pharma QA review, and a single SOP deployed across three warehouse locations.

What changed

Won the next two pharma RFPs they bid on, the validation package shipped inside the proposal.

One SOP deployed across three depot locations, with no per-site re-qualification.

Cold chain moved from a cost line to a competitive service tier.

What the clients are saying
“We used to compete on price. Now we win on qualification; the first client told us flat out the validated documentation is why they picked us.”
