A perfect fit for the validated
Pharmaceutical environment
ERP for the pharmaceutical industry
Pharmaceuticals are becoming more and more individualized, quality requirements are higher and regulations are numerous: The GUS-OS Suite enables pharmaceutical companies in this environment to achieve largely automated and lean production. Almost 40 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry have gone into the GUS Group's process-oriented ERP solution. Currently, the GUS-OS Suite is used by around 60 pharmaceutical manufacturers, distributors and contract manufacturers. It ensures planning, production and delivery of high-quality pharmaceuticals. All business processes are compliant with regulations. And the industry processes included in the standard can be modeled for individual customers at the same time.
Because of their dynamic market environment, pharmaceutical companies have to adapt their processes and software again and again. For this purpose, they need, for example, improved calculation schemes for external product and service offers, IT applications for tender management or tools for supplier evaluation. The GUS-OS Suite is specially designed for the process industry and offers corresponding functions. In addition, GUS Group consultants work with customers to find answers to other regulatory and business management questions. Always with the goal of optimizing the efficiency and transparency of business processes.

BioNTech
GUS-OS has already been in use at BioNTech since 2017 at the main site in Mainz in the area of mRNA-based, individualized cancer vaccine candidates. In the course of setting up production for clinical trials there, GUS-OS was introduced to map the internal logistics processes. The range of tasks covered by the GUS-OS suite extends from requirements planning and provision of components for patient-specific production to the shipment of cancer vaccine candidates to participating hospitals, for example, as part of the ongoing study.

Process improvement in real time
The Business Intelligence (BI) solution integrated in the GUS-OS Suite calculates process and financial key figures in real time. These key performance indicators (KPI) create the necessary process transparency and thus offer fact-based decision-making aids to adapt and optimize processes at short notice. In addition to daily evaluations on an hourly basis, forecasts and projections into the future are possible. In this way, throughput times for specific batches can be analyzed, as can the effort required for picking outgoing goods, right through to the capacity utilization figures for individual production areas.
Process development for the serialization of products
Together with the companies, our pharmaceutical consultants develop the business processes required for the implementation of the EU Falsification Directive 2011/62/EU. They then extend the standard processes mapped in the GUS-OS Suite to include company-specific processes. The result is clear: clear coding of secondary pharmaceutical packaging to protect against plagiarism.
