November 2023 U.S. Drug
Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) now in effect; Tecsys WMS
provides regulatory adherence and optimized healthcare distribution
efficiency.
MONTREAL, Nov. 27,
2023 /CNW/ -- Tecsys Inc. (TSX: TCS), a global
leader in supply chain management solutions, today announced Elite™
WMS for Healthcare Distribution, a warehouse management system with
embedded serialized DSCSA support designed for efficient and
continuous compliance with DSCSA regulations as outlined by the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Tecsys' Elite WMS for Healthcare Distribution is the industry's
first warehouse management system that locally maintains full
inference data on the GS1 system of standards, specifically the
Serial Global Trade Item Number (SGTIN) and the Serial Shipping
Container Code (SSCC). In addition to ensuring efficiency of
critical warehouse functions, the system features real-time
compliance and streamlined workflows for receiving, putaway and
fulfillment. Its unified approach eliminates the need for multiple
systems to run simultaneously, avoiding dual-entry workflows.
With the DSCSA mandate requiring electronic documentation of
products and ownership now in effect, Elite™ WMS for Healthcare
Distribution provides wholesale pharmaceutical distributors and
3PLs a market-tested solution for regulatory adherence. Trading
partner readiness extends downstream to health system and retail
pharmacy clients, who must ensure upstream and downstream
compliance to facilitate traceability through to the point of
use.
"While the industry plays catch up on this functionality, Tecsys
has the distinct advantage of several years of experience designing
and enhancing DSCSA-driven capabilities," explained John Reichert, senior director of Supply Chain
Execution at Tecsys. "This newly launched WMS offering builds on
that advanced serialization foundation to provide the market a
highly targeted and robust DSCSA-compliant warehouse management
system."
Tecsys' senior director of Pharmacy Solutions and American
Society of Health System Pharmacists member Valerie Bandy, PharmD, MBA, commented, "DSCSA's
regulatory requirements have been a series of moving goalposts.
Tecsys Elite™ WMS navigates those evolving requirements so that
organizations can drive compliance as an integrated process within
their supply chain, even as those parameters change."
From its involvement with the Healthcare Distribution Alliance
(HDA) to its participation in DSCSA serialization seminars, Tecsys
continues to invest in its healthcare and pharmacy-specific supply
chain traceability platform. Elite™ WMS for Healthcare Distribution
leverages Tecsys' regulatory and compliance expertise in hospital
logistics, providing the highest degree of functional maturity in
the industry. This integrated DSCSA serialization compliance
minimizes redundant integrations and manual record checks, enabling
real-time inventory reconciliation.
"It's not just about avoiding non-compliance penalties,"
Reichert added. "It's about enhancing efficiency, ensuring the
integrity of your supply chain, and ultimately delivering better
service to your healthcare providers and their patients."
