Life Sciences Giant Teams with ZAETHER to Implement UNS
In 2019, a Fortune 500 diversified life sciences company opened a $90 million facility built to manufacture viral vector gene therapies for its biotech customers.
Determined to make it a state-of-the-art facility, the company’s leaders saw an opportunity to reengineer its existing data management approach. The problem was that data silos separated instruments, equipment, and systems, affecting everything from production efficiency to quality to security. Point-to point integrations between systems were cumbersome and complex. There was a lack of data contextualization and too many inconsistent data formats, requiring additional validation efforts.
The company turned to ZAETHER to lead a Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) study to explore what would be required to implement a Unified Namespace (UNS).
