Real-time visibility for a strong and safe pharma supply chain

Real-time data monitoring transforms how we track pharmaceuticals in the supply chain. A live overview of location, temperature, and light intensity, ensures quality and safety in transportation and storage.

  • Take action in real time 

  • Use data analytics to optimize workflow & processes 

  • Enhance quality & compliance 

Challenges of limited visibility

Guaranteeing product integrity & on-time delivery

Limited visibility and multiple handoff points make it challenging to catch issues in time to save the product.

Optimizing processes & ensuring predictability

It's hard to predict and plan inventory and safety stock without real-time data, which often leads to expensive, wasteful overproduction.

Simplifying recordkeeping for compliance

Ensuring seamless tracking and temperature documentation shouldn't rely on someone remembering to press start on a USB logger.
