In big companies with a long history, we often face across sites a high variety of products and the manufacturing environment, such as legacy IT systems. Due to varying production conditions, the need for local adaptations is often emphasized, leading to skepticism about global process standardization.

However, significant benefits can be achieved by standardizing work processes, their digital implementation, and data definitions. All this is setting also a foundation for the use of artificial intelligence in an efficient manner. A collaborative approach to define standards leverages diverse perspectives, best practices, and expertise, leading to an overall improved process quality, efficiency and compliance.

This session provides insights into practical experiences from a major pharmaceutical company. You will learn about key benefits of standardized processes, challenges in implementation, and strategies to overcome them. Additionally, we will discuss how digitalizing process executions can drive efficiency and innovation.
