MES software in the pharmaceutical sector helps to meet regulations

Pharmaceutical- and medical manufacturers must provide evidence of the traceability regarding all raw / unmanufactured materials, intermediate goods and end products. This is the only option for quick action in case of potential safety hazards or risks. In addition, all information is stored in the European Databank for Medical Devices (EUDAMED).

The development and production of pharmaceuticals is based on highly sensitive procedures that are subject to constant monitoring and control. In addition, all production steps and research results must be documented in order to be able to provide all legally required verifications for external monitoring.
Many industries still rely on manual documentation. However, profound and sustainable process optimization can take place with the help of a Manufacturing Execution System. Digital production management software can be adapted flexibly to the requirements of the pharmaceutical industry so you are able to reproduce company-specific features in detail - for example, in the production of medication. Here, weighing and packaging of the pharmaceuticals can be controlled automatically. Sensors and scanners help with the documentation of raw materials, intermediate goods and end products. Warning systems help to draw attention to hazardous substances or processes that are not running as planned:

• Order- and production-related communication with the ERP system
• Defining and monitoring of process regulations
• Controlling and documentation of process steps
• Analysis and visualization of all processes
• Implementation and depiction of further, company-specific processes

Digitalizing the healthcare sector

In addition to the pharmaceutical industry, manufacturers of medical devices or aesthetic products also benefit from the possibilities of data control, considering manufacturing data. The legislation of the European Union obliges all companies in the pharmaceutical-, health- and medical industries to provide complete and transparent documentation.
The industry solution by GFOS helps to bring out positive factors for manufacturers and legislators. On the one hand, the legal requirements and safety regulations are transferred to an automated system, which significantly increases safety standards. On the other hand, the in-house production and all associated processes become transparent and thus create possibilities for optimization. Hence, it enables increased efficiency and cost reduction.
