Track: Clinical Supply
The Merck Global Clinical Supply Chain demand has been steadily and significantly increasing over the past few years, exceeding everyone's wildest expectations. Since 2016, demand for global clinical finished goods (FG) orders has more than tripled and with so many studies currently ongoing across the globe, the number of shipments has also increased substantially, by more than 400%. All these jobs and transactions require on-time quality releases for compliance against GMP's and Health Authority Regulations.
Now more than ever, with the significant increase in clinical studies, and in order to help quickly achieve the full potential of new Medicines in the pipeline, it is imperative that we find innovative ways to get clinical supplies to our patients across the globe in a highly reliable and expedited manner. Digital innovation has helped us achieve that goal by unlocking the full potential of electronic data. By automating the integration of data across siloed systems, Merck global clinical supplies in partnership with Appian and the Princeton Blue process automation team, used an Agile implementation methodology to successfully develop the Clinical Supply Scheduling Tool (CSST) and Clinical Supply Release Tool (CSRT) which drive significant value, by providing an accurate, real-time and dynamic schedule; by enhancing job readiness through proactive and automatic detection and communication of gaps and issues that help drive early issue/resolution related to individual country regulatory filing, open investigations and drug product releases; by keeping everyone in the supply chain accurately informed with a single source of the truth; and finally, by helping our quality auditors simplify the quality review and release process.
These digital innovative achievements ensure a nimble supply chain, capable of reliably and sustainably providing patients and clinical studies with timely medicines across the globe. Join us to learn more about the future next generation of Clinical Supply Chain tracking using process workflow and automation technology.
