GTI Introduces Scarabaeus at all Dragenopharm GmbH Locations

 

GTI will introduce its PPS / MES solution Scarabaeus+ at all four locations of Dragenopharm Apotheker Püschl GmbH & Co. KG. Founded in 1953, this Bavarian company counts among Germany’s largest pharmaceutical contract manufacturers. In addition to the Scarabaeus standard functionalities, the system version implemented throughout this company includes the extension options PharAO (document management) and MIS (management information system), among others. In order to enable all locations to draw on the same (master) data, a clearing centre will regularly match any input with existing data. Within the framework of our in-depth project supervision, Dragenopharm will also take advantage of the GTI validation service. The new system is scheduled to go online on July 1, 2005.

 

GTI Starts LIMS Pilot Project at Biopharm Analytical Centre, Berlin

GTI succeeded in winning the Analytisches Zentrum Biopharm in Berlin, a prestigious contract research institute for the pharmaceutical and chemical industry, as pilot customer for the new LIMS, SOTHIS. Here, the system will initially be used at 12 workstations, but is open to unlimited expansion at a later time. Our in-depth project supervision includes the preparation of all life cycle documents required for the system validation and audits (e.g. software design specification, risk analysis on the developer side, software test protocols and change control protocols), as well as the support of the validation measures on the operator side (e.g. setting up validation master plans and SOPs).

Highlights of SOTHIS include the computer-guided feedback of analytic results, the automatic generating of test orders during sample posting or according to a test schedule on file, an integrated goods economy system (purchases/sales, warehouse management), GxP-compliant data security (rights management, audit trail, electronic signature), as well as the managing and calling of any document via the directly interlinked DMS (including the expansion option “PharAO”).

Please request more information on SOTHIS.

 

Scarabaeus Release 05.00.0007: Substantially Improved Production Planning

top

The new Scarabaeus release 05.00.0007 will optimise both the MRP run and the data transfer for detailed planning using MS Project.
When assessing the requirements for an intended planning horizon, the MRP will now reflect any anticipated inflow or outflow of goods resulting from open sales orders, delivery notes, purchase orders, order proposals and batches planned or in production. The scheduling of production batches and purchase orders takes not just the production times (including set-up times, clean-up times and other time components) into account but also the QC times that can be defined all the way to the test characteristics level. In addition, the transfer of the created planning data to MS Project has become more flexible and efficient.
