Description

DIGITAL TRACEABILITY IS KEY IN MEDICAL DEVICE MANUFACTURING FOR ACHIEVING FULL DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Digital transformation is essential for medical device manufacturers like Straumann and other industry leaders to maintain a competitive edge. But digital transformation is the final stop of a journey that leads through achieving digital traceability. Why? Imagine a defect is discovered or the FDA requests information. How quickly and accurately can your company respond? Join us to learn how to ensure rapid response, accurate impact assessment, effective product quarantine, and seamless manufacturing adjustments.

Master digital traceability to transform your MedTech operations

Are you seeking to start or advance your digital journey with innovative technology solutions? Learn how digital traceability empowers other medical device companies to transition to paperless manufacturing. Our experts will guide you through:

  • Enhancing traceability to respond swiftly and accurately to defects and regulatory inquiries.
  • Leveraging digital solutions to streamline operations and ensure compliance.
  • Making product or manufacturing changes to eliminate production flaws and employ adequate preventive measures.

The power of paperless manufacturing

Embracing digital solutions is crucial for achieving paperless manufacturing. For many medical device organizations, this process is complex and requires proper guidance through critical stages.  Discover how eliminating paper-based processes can improve data integrity to understand the full impact of product defects and gain complete transparency in reporting to the FDA.

Since implementing MES in June 2016, Straumann’s achievements include:

  • Over 400 solution users in Villeret (CH), the largest Straumann manufacturing facility.
  • 14 defined user roles in MES (e.g., Scheduler, Raw Material Clerk, Operator, Quality Controller).
  • Maintenance of around 18,000 orders in MES yearly.
  • Saving over 1,260,000 pages of paper annually, equivalent to saving 15 spruce trees.

Achievable business results through MES implementation

MedTech companies face unique challenges, so your manufacturing model creates specific business drivers for MES. MES implementation can offer unique benefits tailored to your manufacturing model, including:

  • Real-time data access: Immediate access to critical data for timely decisions
  • Improved traceability: Enhanced tracking of materials and processes, ensuring rapid and accurate responses
  • Enhanced collaboration: Better cooperation across the enterprise

Real-life examples of shop-floor experiences from Straumann illustrate improvements in:

  • Operational efficiency: Higher satisfaction and efficiency among shop-floor operators
  • Workflow-based manufacturing: Easier management and visibility of complex process flows
  • SAP integration: Seamless integration of DELMIA Apriso MES with SAP modules (Materials, Production Planning, Quality Management, etc.)
