Pharmaceutical companies are under pressure to bring new drugs to market quickly. This urgency is driven by the needs of patients, requirements from authorities, and investors. Clinical trials are a crucial part of this process, but they can be delayed by manual processes.

In the complex world of pharmaceuticals, sustainability is becoming a key part of business strategy. The push for a greener future is driven not only by government rules but also by the expectations of communities and customers. However, making the supply chain sustainable while balancing costs and maintaining high quality can be challenging. This requires careful planning and a commitment to long-term goals.

In the life-science industry, finding the right balance between cost and quality in the supply chain is crucial. This balance ensures that pharma companies remain financially healthy while delivering safe and effective products to patients. However, achieving this balance can be challenging due to the complexities of quality management, procurement, and temperature control.

USB data loggers have been an important part of the life science temperature monitoring process for years. They have dramatically improved the safety of the drug distribution process by allowing the accurate measurement of temperature data at set points along the supply journey.

As 2021 draws to a close, we’ve rounded up the most-read stories we’ve published on our blog in the past 12 months – featuring automation, new technologies, data, clinical supply, and pharma logistics.

In Q4 of 2021, WBR Insights surveyed 100 Directors of Supply Chain Management and similar from pharma organizations across Europe and North America to find out about the challenges they face in 2021 and the innovative solutions they are putting in place.

Data is an essential requirement for improving supply chain processes. But that doesn’t mean that simply collecting more of it will instantly lead to reductions in waste, increases in efficiency and lower excursion rates. Taking a more targeted approach will help you turn supply chain data into insights that can help you understand exactly what is happening at every stage of your pharmaceutical supply chain.

For the life science industry, optimizing temperature control processes has the potential to drive big improvements in the reliability and efficiency of supply chains.

The life science industry is always looking for ways to improve reliability and efficiency across the supply chain. New technologies for tracking and temperature logging hold great potential, but which to choose?

Pharmaceutical companies are under pressure to bring new drugs to market quickly. This urgency is driven by the needs of patients, requirements from authorities, and investors. Clinical trials are a crucial part of this process, but they can be delayed by manual processes.

In the pharmaceutical industry, maintaining precise temperature control is paramount to ensuring product quality and compliance with regulatory standards. The integrity of pharmaceutical products is heavily reliant on storage conditions, with deviations in temperature potentially compromising their efficacy and safety.

Are you in pursuit of optimizing the temperature management of your clinical trials supply chain? Get inspired by experts from the field, and learn from their experiences.

The TSS User Forum is a platform for thought leadership and innovation in supply chain and temperature control technologies. This forum gathered industry experts from some of the most respected life science companies worldwide, covering topical realities such as automation benefits, data management, supply chain sustainability, and Direct-To-Patient.

Where do the majority of your temperature excursions occur? Why not eliminate them?

In an era where people can make instant cash transfers electronically from their phone and order physical goods to be delivered in hours to their location, there is a portion of the Clinical Supply Chain that seems mired in a staff intensive, manual, reactive business process. That process is evaluating temperature excursions for Clinical Trial material.

According to Lie Berglind, Chief Quality Officer at TSS, quality management is the soul of every organization. It is about doing what we say we should do, but also about measuring and determining how it was done, as well as documenting it to discover opportunities for improvement.

Two-way integrations between IRT and the temperature system unlock cold chain consistency in clinical development – protecting patients, maximizing value and minimizing operational costs.

Pharmaceutical supply chains are often defined by a lack of connectivity between tiers, stakeholders and operational islands. It doesn’t have to be that way.

Digital transformation is having a huge impact on pharma supply chains, supporting patient safety and giving companies a competitive advantage. But key to this process are the integrations between different systems.

Without a doubt, uncertainty and unpredictability will continue to increase. Whether you‘re a pharmaceutical company dealing with temperature excursions, or a manufacturer relying on critical assembly-line components, you’re bound to be affected. The amount of disruption in today’s business climate demands the ability to respond quickly, which can only be done if the entire supply chain is visible.

Akanksha Sharma joined TSS in 2021 as a Quality Engineer in our Validation team, where she helped make sure our systems and processes are working exactly as they should. Always keen to continue expanding her skills and experience, in 2022 Akanksha took on a new challenge within our company.

We believe automation is essential to making supply chains more visible and removing inefficiencies that come with manual tasks. Watch our webinar to find out more about how to achieve automation in your clinical supply chain.
