The Axia Institute - Michigan State University

In 2023, Axia demonstrated in a lab pilot the efficiency of RFID technology as a transformative tool for achieving DSCSA compliance and optimizing pharmaceutical supply chain operations. Phase II of the End-to-End RFID Pilot is at-scale. Hear an update and candid discussion from three participants - John DiPalo of ACSIS, Sean Murphy of Cencora | Pharma solutions, and Aaron Sundman of CCL eAgile Inc. - at Axia's virtual Traceability Across Industries Value Chain Summit. ·   Monday, Oct. 21 from 1-4 p.m. ·   Tuesday, Oct. 22 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Registration closes Friday and is only $99 for non-members. https://lnkd.in/g8rqZSsD

They manufacture and distribute unique and hard-to-find medical products, including this cost-effective option to an IV bag. We are proud to see our partners delivering options to maintain a steady supply chain, and have them as a forward-thinking partner as we seek to find innovative solutions for pharmaceutical challenges of tomorrow.

Are you ready to dive into supply chain visibility? Axia’s 2024 Traceability Across Industries Value Chain Summit has gone virtual! Same great content, just without the travel. It will be split over two half days: ·   Monday, Oct. 21 from 1-4 p.m. ·   Tuesday, Oct. 22 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The Summit is a unique opportunity to learn more about the future of visibility and traceability. On Monday, GS1 will lead two workshops about standards. On Tuesday, we'll hear first-hand accounts of traceability from our keynote speaker Frank Yiannas, followed by representatives from the food and pharma industries and how they are implementing visibility. We will also highlight current research projects being led by Axia. Registration is $99 for non-members. https://lnkd.in/g8rqZSsD

Whether you're looking to add to your supply chain team or optimize your value chain, MSU brings expertise to the table. Michigan State University - Eli Broad College of Business supply chain management program is #1 for 14 years (and counting) and The Axia Institute - Michigan State University helps companies and industries find innovative solutions to value chain challenges.

Starting November 27, the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) requires pharma manufacturers to trace and track medications from the point of manufacture to the patient. Axia has been on the leading edge of research innovation for nearly two years, testing RFID-enabled systems for DSCSA compliance. Our 2023 "Pilot Study: DSCSA and the Pharmaceutical Chain" was referenced by Jay Williams of Intelliguard® in Pharmacy Times recently for its findings of flexibility, visibility and optimization of medication tracking. Axia’s commitment to solving this supply chain challenge continues as Phase II is underway with guidance from the Pilot Advisory Panel (including Intelliguard), a real-world simulation of medication moving from the point of manufacture to the patient.

Your first smartphone. It came loaded with so many apps and features it was tempting to try all of them. Over time, you found the ones that you live by. Like that first smartphone, implementing a visibility system using AIDC and EPCIS technologies will give you more data than you need. But with careful decision-making and planning, your system will give you what you need. At our Traceability Across Industries Value Chain Summit (Oct. 21-22), Ned Mears of GS1 US will facilitate a discussion to design a visibility system that provides the data you need. Join us in Midland, Mich. Registration is open! https://lnkd.in/g8rqZSsD
