Equipment Connectivity for Factory Digital Transformation
Workplaces in the pharmaceutical supply chain are evolving, and so are the technical solutions and data usage. Many production facilities have been operating for decades, with machines that no longer meet the criteria for a modern workplace. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, the lack of continuous, detailed data collection limits progress, preventing the use of modern technologies and AI.
This has led to a growing need for Modernization Projects to upgrade equipment, connect machines to advanced technologies, and develop methods that leverage enhanced data flow to optimize production processes. This case study explores the first step in these transformation efforts: upgrading and connecting equipment to create a solid foundation for digital transformation in the pharma supply chain.
Supply Chain Wizard is committed to adding value to our clients’ pharmaceutical supply chain operations, ensuring their success is our success. Equipment connectivity is key to enabling new technologies that enhance operational efficiency.
Through standardization, improved error tracking, and enhanced performance monitoring, significant improvements in production performance are achieved, reducing the cost per unit across all factories. This positive impact continues post-project, with ongoing improvements driven by additional data and the development of new methods each year.
