Challenges

Implementing a comprehensive SCM system for a pharmaceutical company brought several unique challenges:

  • Regulatory Compliance: Strict adherence to FDA, GMP, and other pharmaceutical standards was essential. The SCM software had to integrate rigorous quality control processes to meet industry regulations seamlessly.
  • Integration Capability: The client’s existing SCM software had struggled to integrate smoothly with their ERP systems. The new solution is needed to allow effortless integration with both current and future ERP platforms.
  • Data Migration: Transferring data from the legacy system to the new SCM software involved handling multiple data formats and ensuring complete data integrity during the migration.
  • Analytics and Reporting: Strong analytics capabilities were essential to provide actionable insights based on real-time data, aiding the client in making data-driven decisions.

AgileTech’s Solutions

AgileTech tackled these challenges with a tailored approach when developing a comprehensive supply chain management system:

  • Ensuring Regulatory Compliance: A specialized team focused on meeting all regulatory standards within the SCM software. Consistent quality checks and built-in compliance tracking helped the system align with FDA, GMP, and other regulatory requirements.
  • Robust API Design: RESTful APIs were employed to enable smooth integration with ERP systems. We implemented common communication standards to ensure flexibility.
  • Comprehensive Data Migration Plan: A detailed data migration plan was created to manage the transition efficiently. By using ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) tools, we facilitated smooth data transfer into the new SCM system while maintaining data integrity.
  • Integrated Analytics Tools: To meet the client’s data needs, we incorporated powerful analytics and visualization tools like Power BI and Tableau, enabling real-time reporting and advanced data insights.
