TraceLink and Advanco have announced a partnership to support pharmaceutical manufacturers with the integration of line management and enterprise systems when complying with new serialisation regulations.
The agreement will see TraceLink resell Advanco’s ARC Suite software, an industry-leading software solution that integrates packaging lines and enterprise serialisation repositories. This will allow pharmaceutical and contract manufacturing companies to use multiple line management systems, providing purchasing flexibility, while also simplifying integration with the TraceLink Life Sciences Cloud at the enterprise and network level for serialisation.
As a leading provider for enterprise and network system Levels 4 and 5, TraceLink will offer the Advanco ARC Suite software to customers looking for a consistent global site server solution that is independent of the Line Management System (LMS).
ARC Suite will streamline integration across all LMS solutions and remove any restrictions associated with purchasing from multiple line vendors resulting from implementing a proprietary site server. This simplified, interoperable approach through TraceLink and Advanco will allow manufacturers to leverage any combination of line management solutions, while improving procurement and deployment flexibility.
“Pharmaceutical and contract manufacturers continue to face a number of challenges in synchronising multiple interconnected packaging levels in order to comply with serialisation regulations. TraceLink and Advanco recognised the need to provide a flexible option for the industry to cut down on time-consuming and costly integrations between line management and enterprise systems and efficiently comply with serialization regulations,” said Shabbir Dahod, president and CEO of TraceLink.
Olgun Yenersoy, founder and CEO of Advanco added, “The TraceLink and Advanco integration offers true simplicity in system integration and will help facilitate smoother deployment of serialization solutions for all packaging levels. We look forward to this partnership with TraceLink and working collaboratively to help the industry achieve compliance in the EU, US and other global markets.”
In addition, customers who purchase ARC Suite by Advanco from TraceLink will be able to rely on TraceLink’s global customer success team for implementation assistance and ongoing technical support, further streamlining the user experience by coordinating support resources through TraceLink.
Advanco has been working as a system integrator in diverse industry such as pharmaceutical, food, manufacturing, luxury goods, aeronautics, chemical and the automotive for the last 36 years. It aims to contribute to continuously optimize the efficiency of the operations through “Serialized Plant Execution Management” for both production and distribution at the plant level.
