Through innovative platforms like UniSecure and UniTrace, Systech ensures unparalleled transparency, security, and compliance across global pharmaceutical supply chains. These solutions not only enhance the speed and accuracy of detecting counterfeit products but also enable real-time tracking and data integrity, making them essential tools for the industry. OSP spoke to Joseph Lipari, director of product.
How does Systech’s track and trace technology enhance the speed and accuracy of detecting counterfeit pharmaceuticals?
Systech’s track and trace technology and fully integrated stack of serialization solutions enable unique identification for end-to-end transparency and traceability of products across the pharmaceutical supply chain.
Systech’s UniSecure platform delivers non-additive, covert brand protection with real-time authentication and forensics to get to the root of the problem.
What specific features of Systech’s solutions enable real-time tracking and immediate detection of discrepancies in the supply chain?
Systech’s UniTrace platform enables traceability across the supply chain, while the UniSecure® platform creates a unique digital e-Fingerprint from microvariations in a printed packaging code which cannot be seen or duplicated. Users can instantly identify fake or diverted products via a mobile app on a smartphone or industrial device.
How does Systech ensure the integrity and security of the data collected through its track and trace solutions?
Systech holds data security and integrity to the highest standards. We employ a range of strategies and technologies to ensure the integrity and security of the data collected through its systems such as data encryption, secure communication channels, user authentication, role-based access, blockchain integration, comprehensive audit trails and real-time monitoring.
In what ways do your solutions comply with global regulatory requirements for pharmaceutical traceability?
Systech is a leading provider of regulatory compliance solutions for the pharmaceutical industry. We participate in industry working groups and memberships to remain in the forefront of all global regulatory requirements.
For example, our DSCSA solutions enable our customers to meet compliance ahead of deadlines with the upmost confidence and little to no impact on production.
How do your solutions integrate with existing pharmaceutical manufacturing and distribution systems?
Systech is a full-stack provider, but our solutions are equipment agnostic and can integrate seamlessly with outside systems.
What are the main challenges faced by the pharmaceutical industry in combating counterfeiting and diversion, and how does Systech address these challenges?
Complex global supply chains and sophisticated counterfeiting techniques plague the industry, while cost, and implementation barriers create challenges in selecting a brand protection program. Systech’s platform enables real-time detection with rapid implementation. The UniSecure solution is non-additive—no stickers, tags or additional packaging adjustments needed. Because the solution is covert, bad actors cannot duplicate or see the technology.
How does Systech’s technology support the unique identification and authentication of pharmaceutical products throughout their lifecycle?
Systech’s serialization and traceability solutions create and leverage unique identification to ensure that each product can be tracked, traced and authenticated from the point of manufacture through to dispense. The UniSecure platform authenticates products in real-time, anywhere in the supply chain. Corresponding forensic reports in the platform allow for root cause analysis to combat supply chain threats such as counterfeiting and diversion.
What advancements or innovations is Systech working on to further enhance their track and trace solutions for the pharmaceutical industry?
Systech is continuously innovating for life sciences with our customers to create new solutions that address the pain points of today and tomorrow. We participate in industry working groups and partnerships to identify opportunities to enhance efficiency, ensure patient safety and maximize uptime.
