About the client

Challenges

Galentic Pharma needed their manufacturing processes to be quality compliant and be able to follow inspection related regulations. Inventory management, production planning and sub-contracting processes were not integrated in their system.

Process

We had detailed requirement gathering sessions with the core team members of Galentic Pharma to understand their business processes. Multiple sessions were conducted with each department to understand the intricacies/details of their working process and, being a pharma company, the norms that are being followed. On-site visits were conducted by us, where we went through an entire live Purchase/Production process. The process was captured, and a business blueprint was finalized by Galentic.

Solutions

Our “Add-Ons” to SAP B1 for ‘Quality Check’ and ‘Route Card’ was developed in order to meet the requirements for Galentic Pharma for the following Manufacturing & Quality Inspection requirements:

  • Manufacturing process steps definition and inspections for each “in-process” steps
  • Resources for accounting items, labor, machine hours and cost
  • Production scheduling based on optimum use of machines.
  • Quality Inspections for each Batch/Lot/Serial Number/Sampling/Container, for incoming raw materials, intermediates, and finished Products.
  • Batch Transfer from one item number to another item number with quality inspection and sampling
  • Label printing and certificate of analysis reports
  • Additionally, the ‘Subcontracting’ Add-On was implemented in order to capture their vendor subcontracting processes.
