DRY BOXES

Issue

Pharmaceutical company uses dry boxes in its operation. However, company wanted independent verification of the dry box readings, as well as independent verification of no door opens during the cycle. Moreover, operators wanted real-time, remote alerts when the cycle was completed, and to be able to check availability before going back to the lab.

Solution

Dry boxes were instrumented with environmental sensors and door open sensors. App requires operator to log each run.

ROI

Company was able to independently verify the conditions inside of the dry boxes, as well as the fact that the doors remained close during the cycle. Moreover, company was able to complete more projects on or ahead of schedule with notifications regarding dry box availability going to the entire team whether inside or outside of the lab.

Outcome

Certification records created and production schedule met or exceeded rate up 21%
