GPSG Brazil is expected to use ‘Connects’ to enhance the quality control in its Sao Jose dos Campos pharmaceutical production facility in Sao Paulo Brazil.
GPSG Brazil plans to use the informatics solution in its five laboratories (Incoming; Microbiology; Chemical Lab; Analytical Development and Research & Development). The company has already integrated the solution with SAP R3, an enterprise resource planning and documentation system.
‘Connects’ assists organisations in integrating application-specific workflows, thereby transforming laboratory data into relevant business information and maximising a company’s enterprise system investments to better support critical management decisions in today’s resource-constrained environment.
‘Connects’ is expected to bridge the gaps between laboratory generated data and the enterprise level information that is required for mission critical management decisions by providing both the integration of instruments and systems and interoperability necessary to transform data into relevant business drivers for companies across the broadest spectrum of industries.
Ronaldo Galvao, quality operations director of GPSG Brazil, said: “We needed a validated product that provides us with sufficient flexibility to deliver all the requirements of a pharmaceutical plant such as data security and consistent quality data, a centralised repository for the Quality Management data, fast and accurate data storage and recovery, and all the industry functionality. The overall integration of our connected informatics solutions provides a seamless and secure quality environment at GPSG Brazil.”
Dave Champagne, vice president and general manager of informatics at Thermo Fisher Scientific, said: “Our growing presence in South America providing informatics solutions to a broad range of industries is strengthened by our work with GPSG-Brazil to support their ongoing production schedules and to improve their processes.”
