Industry Challenges
In recent years, Life Sciences manufacturers have been implementing niche systems in an attempt to improve their ability to achieve compliance. However, as can be seen by the dramatic increase in warning letter activity, this approach has not led to a lot of success. This is because regulations are designed to ensure that companies are thoroughly managing product safety and risk, from design to market acceptance, from suppliers to patients. Niche systems only address a small piece of compliance, leaving manufactures exposed on many other fronts. Integrating many niche and legacy systems together is another challenge that, if possible, can be very costly to achieve. Solution
Applied Materials next generation Manufacturing Compliance Framework addresses compliance across the entire manufacturing enterprise. Applied Materials' patented Framework represents the “plumbing” required to seamlessly connect key processes from the various pillars together. This, combined with Applied Materials' Service Oriented Architecture(SOA) approach provides companies with the flexibility to leverage their existing legacy applications to ensure complete and compliant regulatory process management. Benefits include: - Achieve “true” product and process traceability
- Total control over your enterprise regulatory and manufacturing processes
- Greatly improved compliance levels
- Enhanced productivity levels
- Faster implementation times
- Lower Total Cost of Ownership
