A Call to Action for Pharma CMOs
By Jim Miller, President, PharmSource Forecasting is central to manufacturing operations and supply chain management. It drives scheduling, raw material ordering, inventory levels and many other decisions that ensure an uninterrupted market supply of finished product. However, forecasting really doesn’t work very well when planning the manufacturing requirements for new product launches. It has to be done so far ahead, and take into account so many variables, that it is often wrong – at great cost in lost revenues or misspent capital expenditures. Manufacturing and supply chain planning must begin four to f...

How to Live with Uncertain Pharma Demand Forecasts
o understand the prevalence of demand forecast inaccuracy – and the struggle to bring new products to market – Patheon commissioned ORC International to conduct in-depth interviews with 50 pharma industry executives with experience creating or implementing demand forecasts for commercial launches. The study confirms Mullen’s assessment. Every respondent said their forecasts either over- or under-estimated demand – indeed, future demand, they said, was the most difficult variable to predict.

Guide To Selecting Tablet Dedusters In Pharma Manufacturing Operations
This article will help you select a tablet deduster to keep production areas cleaner and reduce rejects. When compressing powders into pharmaceutical or nutraceutical tablets, dust becomes a byproduct, adhering to the tablets as they exit the tablet press. In addition, the gap between the press punches and dies can allow burrs to form around tablet edges. Both the powder and the burrs lead to unwanted dust in downstream processes. Removing this dust as the tablets leave the press allows process and packaging equipment to work more efficiently with less maintenance and keeps the work area cleaner.
