PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY

Digitalization primarily reduces the time to market, i.e. the introduction, release and distribution of new medicines. It helps keep the market clean by reducing market space for tampered products, and by providing reliability and greater safety for sick and healthy people who buy products protected by proper tracking.

The phenomenon, often referred to as the ‘informatization’ of the pharmaceutical industry interweaves all processes in the industry, the entire product cycle.

• drug research (inventing new drugs),
• system of clinical trials,
• pharmaceutical production,
• pharmaceutical regulations,
• drug sales,
• pharmaceutical industry operational support (logistics, digital sales chains, eProcurement, security solutions)

New digital technology tools such as IoT, artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain and robotics bring agile pharmaceutical manufacturing processes, transparency and efficiency across the whole supply chain.

If we take a look at pharmaceutical manufacturing, we see that there are two main challenges for pharmaceutical companies:

• on one hand, to meet the digital consumer demand for faster, patient-oriented, results-based medicines,
• on the other hand, the implementation of the production of drugs at lower pharmaceutical prices.

Digitalization and the application of digital transformation throughout the value chain are very obvious and effective ways to address both challenges. Because today it is not about the need to digitalize the segments and processes of the pharmaceutical industry, but rather about the extent and effectiveness of the introduction of these IT-based support systems in the given areas.
