Abstract:

Digital transformation plays a crucial role in optimizing Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Control (CMC) processes in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. The use of a FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data standards approach is instrumental in this transformation. It is vital to have a deep scientific and strategic understanding of pharmaceutical and biotech development to enable effective digital transformation, solve the data silo issues and avoid the creation of so-called digital-induced silos. Our discussion will focus on how the integration of scientific knowledge and digital principles can enhance data governance and analytics within CMC-specific environments. Our approach involves evaluating data not solely as isolated units, but also in the context of the type of development and the associated unit operations, as well as the settings in which studies are conducted – be it internally or at CROs and CDMOs. This comprehensive perspective leads to a new FAIR vision, encompassing data-specific and CMC-specific scientific nuances in data.

At Zifo, our approach to digital transformation involves adopting this holistic, multilayered view. Real-world examples will illustrate how digital tools and FAIR data frameworks can streamline data integration and enhance decision-making. Witness how these innovations drive compliance, efficiency, and agility, thereby paving the way for a more responsive and competitive pharmaceutical industry.
