Business Case : Entering the Digital Era for Environmental Monitoring Data Processing

Abstract

Capturing, analyzing and understanding the dynamics of the huge amount of environmental monitoring data are crucial for the BioPharma industry. Since UCB is following the digital transformation path of laboratory and data processes, Eric De Maesschalck will be presenting how UCB has significantly enhanced its processes. Thanks to advanced analytics tools, the visualization and understanding of environmental monitoring data dynamics is dramatically improving. Quick detection of trends and powerful capabilities to dig into them to understand what is happening, or could happen, is key.

This case study will provide an overview on:

  • The e-transformation journey of environmental monitoring data processing
  • How UCB is jumping from level 1 to level 3-4 in the Digital Maturity Model for EM
  • How a few clicks can replace tens of hours of manual data analysis and provide immediate responses and clear visualization of what is happening.

Dare your company to initiate de digitalization of the laboratory processes and get the best of your data!
