Companies in the life sciences (pharmaceuticals, medical technology, biotechnology,…) have come through the pandemic comparatively well, and the sector is one of the growth industries worldwide. At the same time, however, global competition, cost and innovation pressure in R&D and regulatory requirements are increasing.

Digitalisation offers the industry and especially SMEs many opportunities, but also presents companies with new challenges, especially technological ones, such as cloud, AI, IoT/IoMT, Big Data, analytics, etc.

SAP SE is the world’s leading developer and provider of enterprise software for handling all of a company’s business processes. The portfolio consists of a variety of solutions, e.g. for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Supply Chain Management (SCM), Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Supplier Relationship Management (SRM).
The most important single product is SAP ERP (now called Digital Core), which replaced the internationally widely used business software system R/3 in 2004.

With SAP S/4HANA, the 4th generation of the Business Suite was introduced at the beginning of 2015, which has many technical innovations, such as a modern in-memory data base (HANA) and an internet-based interface (Fiori). However, in order to meet the industry-specific requirements and run your company as an “intelligent enterprise”, SAP also offers other comprehensive innovative solutions for the digitalisation of the life sciences.
These are described in more detail on the Life Sciences industry page of SAP and in the so-called SAP Industry Portfolio for Life Sciences.

Life sciences companies produce pharmaceutical, medical technology or biotechnology products that are subject to high quality standards and a series of sometimes very restrictive legal requirements (GAMP, 21 CFR, ISO 13485 …). These affect not only the processes to be supported by the SAP system and the required functionality, but also the implementation or transformation as well as the operation of the SAP system. Therefore, life sciences companies operating an SAP system must also deal with issues of GxP compliance and validation.

Since 1996, we have been supporting companies in the pharmaceutical industry and medical technology worldwide as an industry expert in the implementation and validation of SAP Life Sciences solutions (e.g. SAP S/4HANA. e.g. SAP S/4HANA), Quality Management with SAP and on questions regarding GxP Compliance. Our expertise lies in the combination of management consulting as well as IT and process competence. In doing so, we offer expert advice in all phases of your SAP project, from proof of concept, implementation and training to Managed (Validation) Services.

Specifically geared towards the stringent regulatory requirements of the life sciences, we have developed a proprietary methodology that combines Implementation, Transformation and Validation of SAP ERP systems (e.g. SAP S/4HANA). Based on this method, we deliver SAP Life Sciences solutions that cover almost all common requirements. Our implementation and transformation methodology combines the best of both worlds – process-oriented project and system documentation in accordance with GAMP5 and a project approach with accelerators that effectively save you time and money.
