Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Improvement Through Leverage of PI System Data and Analytical Tools
Bristol-Myers Squibb is an EA customer and has years of process data associated with:
• Process development
• Clinical and commercial manufacture of pharmaceuticals.
This data is stored in multiple PI Systems as well as other systems. But we are challenged to find the data of interest for specific process conditions, events, and time periods. This is of particular importance for:
• Comparison of batch differences during process development and scaleup campaigns.
• Investigations of issues, such as quality and yield, in clinical and commercial manufacturing.
Even with recipe context this is often a challenge as process and recipe events do not always coincide. Whether in clinical or commercial manufacturing, finding the data is 60-80% of the overall analysis time. Engineers and scientist need better tools for finding this data of interest. We will present a case study using Seeq to find data of interest for process development campaigns and key business outcomes.
