ASC Pharmaceutical Industry Solutions

Integrated Software Solutions for Distribution, and Manufacturing Operations

Experience:

For more than twenty years now, ASC has been instrumental in assisting pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors ship and track products throughout their enterprise and trading partner network. Some of the largest companies in the world trust ASC software for these complicated distribution tasks. Pharma companies like Kimberly Clark Medical, PharMedium, and others depend upon ASC solutions to empower their supply chain.

ASCTrac® WMS has been FDA certified by our users for use in pharmaceutical manufacturing and distribution (including narcotics controls such as DEA form 222). When you have to prove it, our system provides the audits and processes that you will need. We also support RFID for pedigree controls, lot tracing, and security (ePedigree.)

In addition to pharmaceutical companies, there are pharmaceutical-grade requirements that are required for other similar goods and services. For example, ASCTrac® WMS has been implemented for medical device companies (catheters, etc.), cosmetic products (lip stick, etc.), neutraceuticals (nutrition supplements, multi-level marketing programs, etc.), and other medical products for pharmacies. This includes distribution and manufacturing, as well as 3rd party logistics environments.

ASC includes variance costing for manufacturing as pharmaceutical manufacturing processes may be "process based manufacturing." This is where lean manufacturing and costing is a great benefit, and our lean costing process is seamless all the way to the financial system.

ASCTrac® is designed for users who need to instantly handle any product recalls throughout their supply chain. Since we focus on true pharmaceutical-grade lot tracking in all of our applications, we exceed all FDA mandates.

ASC solutions have been proven in the field when customers demand reliable performance for multi-shift, multi-plant enterprises in tough to track environments. Our solutions have been used in many industries: pharmaceutical, medical products, food and beverage, (frozen foods, fluid products, dry goods, components, ingredients, dairy, meats, ice cream, cake mixes), consumer goods, textiles, utility industry, furniture, as well as third party logistics groups (3PLs) for food and pharma grade warehouses.
