Integrated Excellence

Compliance Driven
Real-time visibility across all day-to-day operations.
Built for Modern Pharmaceutical Operations
In order to manage and comply with the many stringent regulations and complexities of the pharmaceutical industry, a comprehensive ERP system must provide a standardized, controlled, and systematic methodology for conducting business across all functions of the organization (workflows); also, provide a consistent and efficient execution of the aforementioned processes across all departments of the organization.
By providing organizations with the ability to eliminate bottlenecks in their business processes while providing a consistent output, employees can devote their time to strategic initiatives versus repetitive tasks. Because all processes are integrated, real-time visibility into day-to-day operations is made possible.
Key Pharma Industry Challenges
Overcoming the critical hurdles of modern pharmaceutical management
Regulatory Compliance Complexity
Pharmaceuticals are highly regulated in industries under the authority of the FDA and CDSCO. Frequent changes to regulations can make it difficult for companies to remain compliant. In addition, companies using paper-based systems have an increased risk of audits and delays in compliance since there is a significant risk associated with manual documentation.
Lack of Batch Traceability
At present, many companies struggle with product recall readiness and product accountability. The absence of traceability within batches makes it increasingly difficult to manage the entire batch from one inspection event through the final sale.
Inventory & Expiry Management
Expiration tracking and stock control often result in waste and loss of revenue to businesses. Many companies find staff manage FIFO at a significantly greater cost than those who rely on software-based programs. Inefficient inventory processes can dramatically affect the bottom line for businesses.
Disconnected Systems & Data Silos
Having multiple systems across departments creates stagnant and inconsistent data throughout all departments of the business. This lack of visibility in the operation creates significant delays and inconsistent decisions.
Inefficient Production & Planning
Planning the production of a product through reliance on manual systems can create delays and misallocation of resources for businesses. Tracking the formulation of products and tracing back to the production relationship can create delays and cost issues with the production of the product.
Quality Control & Compliance Gaps
Consistent quality of products requires careful monitoring of quality control and compliance processes for each batch of products. Many companies rely on the use of manual procedures for quality control of their products. This reliance creates increased levels of risk for quality issues in addition to non-compliance.
