It is of utmost importance to maintain the highest safety standards during drug manufacturing and managing pharmaceutical products.With Industry 4.0, automation, Big Data, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and systematic operations management, different Enterprise Resource Management (ERP) tools have become integral in the pharmaceutical quality control processes.Advanced technology is undoubtedly becoming the backbone of futuristic quality assurance in the pharma and biotech industry.The pharmaceutical industry stands at a pivotal conjunction point of technology and subject matter expertise.
At pharmaceutical companies, scientists and top executives look at the latest technologies like complete digitization of operations, automation at manufacturing units, and Big Data and Machine Learning to maintain records.The (pharmaceutical) industry increasingly wants more out of their data, and the focus in manufacturing data analysis is about quality, not quantity.– JOE HAUGH IN AN ARTICLE FOR THE EUROPEAN PHARMACEUTICAL REVIEWThe ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the ensuing search for a vaccine has shown the world that with the help of technology, it is possible to witness a never-seen-before feat of producing a potential vaccine candidate in mere months for a novel virus.
Manufacturing and supply of potential drugs to even the remotest parts of various countries are plausible with robust ERP models and streamlined supply chains.FIGURE: 1Pain Points: Quality Control in the Pharmaceutical IndustryLet us take a deep dive into understanding the different ways technology helps reshape methods of quality control in the pharma sector.01.The Automation Effect: Mitigating Errors, Reducing Process Time and Saving EffortsBusinesses have discussed automation in pharmaceutical manufacturing for a long time, but this technological advancement is a boon in quality control.
Pharmaceutical companies can leverage automation within quality assessment by reducing manual documentation efforts to cut margin errors and automatically carry out a quality check for batches or samples.02.A Robust ERP System: The Way Ahead for Comprehensive Quality Control Process OptimizationQuality control happens at various stages throughout a drug’s lifecycle.
Companies can effectively address the issues with a robust ERP system.
A system that provides a centralized database visible to all stakeholders in real-time helps drive better business decisions.
