Quality and Compliance Consulting
Whether ensuring the quality of a product through assurance processes or adhering to regional regulatory organizations (FDA, EMA, Health Canada, DCGI, etc.) compliance frameworks like GLP, GCP, GMP, GMLP etc. the laboratory and testing environment in science is a complex area. Starting a new quality system from scratch or adapting/auditing one against new regulatory or quality requirements requires deep knowledge of the laboratory, science, regulations and quality approaches.
Zifo is a perfect partner to help your quality and compliance journey with many years and deep domain knowledge we can help avoid common pitfalls and wrong turns.
Stability Studies
Assessing the shelf life and stability of products is crucial to product development and release. Planning studies to ensure the environmental and packaging variables are tested fully is paramount.
Zifo’s technology experience spans the entire stability study process, in both validated and non-validated environments, from study design (DoE) and planning, sample tracking and pull date scheduling, through environmental monitoring, sample testing and analytical test results capture, through to study results aggregation and statistical analysis.
Technology Transfer Support Services
The efficient transfer of all the information that has been accumulated around a product and the process for its production process from research and development to manufacturing is a crucial step in a product’s lifecycle. Gathering the information and data, handover of analytical testing processes, manufacturing process parameters and product specification data whilst ensuring the data integrity is a time-consuming and detailed process.
Zifo has domain experience and expertise with both technology providers and best practice processes to support your tech transfer.
Analytical Testing and Lab Services
Analytical test development and execution is ubiquitous in science-based organisations where information is needed to make decisions. The many facets of testing from assay development and validation, through instrument data acquisition and integration, regulatory and QC data reporting as COAs, test specifications, to lab inventory and metrology monitoring all require specialist informatics and hardware such as LIMS, LIS, CDS, Metrology, Inventory, Robotics etc.
Zifo has deep experience and expertise in delivering informatics solutions in the analytical testing ecosystem across many different market verticals and lab operations.
CMC Services in Manufacturing
Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) is a critical part of the new therapy development pathway. As part of the FDA regulatory process for approval, it requires all information relating to a new product is collated – ranging from specifications, manufacturing process control parameters, stability parameters and analytical test variance data etc. Aggregating and ensuring the regulatory integrity of this information from the many different systems that hold it is a time consuming and complex task.
Zifo has regulatory expertise and technology partnerships that can reduce the burden of CMC and help speed up new product approval.
Manufacturing Batch Release
Manufacturing batch release is a complex process that involves various informatics platforms and the application of strict business rules in most cases requires a lot of manual data transcription from ERP to LIMS, to CDS to Excel, back to ERP with tedious manual reviewing of all batch data to uncover non-conformities. The validation and QC of this process when suboptimal, manual and human-centric is excessive and limits the scale and throughput of the process.
Zifo works with companies to help understand the process, look at ways to streamline it and then apply technology and change management to remove many of the manual aspects and automate business rules to support decisions – meaning a fast, more scalable process and better-quality assurance.
Business Process Automation Service
Huge benefits are possible with Process Automation and workflow orchestration in scientific informatics and processes. Whether automating high throughput screening with robotics in research, LIMS instrument integration in product development or automating manufacturing batch release processes between ERP, LIMS, CDS and application of business rules the efficiency impacts are often significant.
Zifo has expertise and experience in many areas of process automation and provides services and solutions based on open-source and proprietary software and robotics platforms. We have experience with various platforms and leverage BPMN and associated tools to deliver services and solutions.
Ontology Development and Management
Ontologies are a foundation of FAIRification, data exploration and reuse in AI and ML. They are an extension of Master Data Management (MDM) taking taxonomies and vocabularies and adding a layer of context and real-world relationships to the data. Defining ontologies is not simple and requires a combination of deep scientific domain knowledge and data management understanding. Coupled with the definition is their ongoing management and governance to ensure the scientific and business needs are met.
Zifo has experience in ontology development and various commercial and open-source ontology definition and management platforms alongside deep domain and technical knowledge to support your FAIR and semantic data journey.
Data Readiness for AI/ML
Getting the most from data requires extraction, transformation and piping to and from platforms both on-prem and in the cloud – data wrangling. During this ETL data is transformed to alternate formats and structures to support downstream consumption like loading to data lakes, data warehouses. There are many nuances to this process and no two projects are ever identical due to the variability of data source and end state data structures.
Zifo has experience with many “data wrangling” approaches, extraction automation and scaling, ETL tools, data formats and enrichment techniques that all support the data re-use and FAIR data journey.
