MES for Pharma
HYDRA X for Process helps pharmaceutical manufacturers meet strict regulatory requirements, efficiently manage processes, and ensure the highest quality standards—enabling innovative, safe, and cost-effective pharmaceutical production. The solution is designed for both process-oriented manufacturing operations, such as weighing, dosing, and mixing, as well as discrete manufacturing steps, such as filling and packaging. HYDRA X for Process is thus the first Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to digitally map both worlds of production end-to-end within a single system.
Our customers’ challenges in the pharmaceutical industry
- Regulatory requirements: Compliance with GMP and GAMP guidelines for CSV, fulfillment of all audit requirements
- Traceability: Complete documentation and traceability of all products and processes including compliance with long-term retention requirements of up to 30 years
- Quality management: Consistently high product quality through precise calculation of active ingredients, exact processing of raw materials, as well as continuous process monitoring
- Production complexity: Small batches, varying recipes, and a wide range of products that require precise management and documentation with Master Batch Records (MBR)
- Cost pressure: Increasing pressure in production to manufacture cost-effectively
- Warehousing and availability: Finding the right balance between warehouse capacities and the timely availability of raw materials can be difficult
- Flexibility: It is necessary to quickly respond to new market requirements and changed processes
- Time-critical supply of raw materials: On-time delivery of raw materials for production
- High consumption of resources: Energy, water, compressed air, and CO₂ in large quantities
These are the reasons why it is important to ensure an efficient and flexible production while fulfilling the customers' requirements.
