Pharmaceuticals require full control and certification
Pharmaceuticals require full control and certification
In the pharmaceutical industry, safety is everything, and there is absolutely zero tolerance for mistakes. Securing the order, warehouse and purchasing process is a step along the way. With more than twenty years of experience in control, quality and reliability, Extend Commerce can ensure traceability throughout the process – from production to final delivery.
The pharmaceutical industry, or Life Science, is a strictly controlled sector. With international standards such as GDP (Good Distribution Practice) and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice), all medicines are carefully controlled from manufacturing, through handling to sale.
According to GMP / GDP Annex 11, the IT systems used in Life Science are also required to provide full traceability, and everything that happens in the system must be able to be verified and secured against manipulation.
When you change systems, you also need to look ahead, and think "where are we in X number of years?", and ensure that the system can handle it. Now we've had the Extend Commerce ERP platform for a while, and our first impression hasn't changed.
