Although many industries have fully embraced paperless practices, the pharmaceutical industry has yet to make this shift in parts of their manufacturing process.
But it’s not because they are reluctant to digitize, it's actually quite the opposite.
Through our discussions with companies behind some of the world’s most renowned drugs, we’ve learned that they are quite eager to go paperless...
However, this is being hindered by a unique set of challenges stemming from their manufacturing processes.
One of them being: the presence of legacy instruments, which often lack networking and connectivity capabilities.
See, many older instruments were not designed with modern networking in mind, making it difficult to integrate them into digital ecosystems.
In some cases, they may lack standard communication protocols like Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or even USB, requiring complex and costly adapters or custom solutions for connectivity.
So most manufacturers have continued to rely on pen-and-paper methods rather than modernizing their processes due to several key challenges including: the high costs of upgrading equipment and implementing digital solutions, concerns about meeting regulatory and compliance requirements, and the risk of halting production due to instrument downtime during the transition.
Overcoming this challenge needs more than just an off-the-shelf solution.
It requires an integrated solution that fits into each operation’s specific set of GMPs and SOPs (and the unique mix of hardware present on any manufacturing floor.)
Nobody had done this successfully until…
Phizzle built and implemented our cloud based solution into the production floors of one of the five largest pharmaceutical manufacturers globally…
Allowing them to completely eliminate paper based costs associated with their air particle counters.
So their lab techs no longer had to collect paper print out results with a pen and paper…
Or manually transfer results into a database with a second person reviewing each entry.
Instead, our Digital Air solution, automatically collects each air particle sample result from the device itself, stores the data on our platform (that can be pushed back in your LIMS) and creates a detailed audit log for every action taken related to your air particle counter.
While remaining 100% 21 CFR Part 11 Compliant and reducing downtime among air particle counters.
And that’s not even the best part…
We understand that our customers have a variety of instruments helping them stay in compliance with QA and QC compliance measures during the manufacturing process.
Some operations have hundreds, and others might even have thousands of air particle counters and other QA instruments.
So instead of limiting you to just one air particle counter manufacturer…
We enable all brands, makes and models that you might have in operation on our platform…
Whether you have Met One air particle counters, Climets, or even a mix of Lighthouse and Aerotrak particle counters…
We’ve got you covered and can help you get rid of all the paper associated with your air particle counters while not breaking the bank…
You may find that by going paperless you could save you a ton of money and time…
Specifically on the costs associated with manual data collection, second person review and all the errors caused by human error along the way.
Make 2025, the year that your operation goes paperless with your air particle counters.
