Global Pharma Company Streamlines FDA Compliance

Executive Summary

A global pharmaceutical manufacturer operating across 10 countries faced challenges maintaining consistent FDA compliance for temperature-sensitive products. By implementing a unified IoT-based environmental monitoring solution, the company achieved 100% audit readiness, improved process transparency, and significant operational efficiency gains within six months.

The Challenge

The company’s vast manufacturing and storage infrastructure included multiple facilities, each with varying monitoring systems.
This created key issues:

• Fragmented data collection and manual temperature logging

• Delayed response to temperature excursions

• Difficulty meeting FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and WHO compliance requirements

• Resource-heavy audits due to paper-based documentation

To ensure consistent product quality and compliance, the company needed a centralized, automated, and validated monitoring system.
