Key Takeaways: Validated, Real-Time Visibility for Pharma Josh Allen is the Chief Revenue Officer of Tive, a tech firm that provides location and condition data of critical shipments in real time to ensure on time and in full delivery. In the podcast interview, Josh and Joe talked about Tive’s validated, real-time visibility solution for the pharmaceutical and biological industries. The pharma and biological industries require visibility solutions to comply with exacting regulations – and Tive meets those requirements. Tive’s pharma compliance is outlined below: FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and EU Annex 11 compliance: Ensures electronic records can be trusted in the same way as handwritten records. 3-Point NIST® traceable Certificate of Calibration included with every Tive tracker: Tive Solo 5G trackers and probes are fully calibrated by an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory. GxP-compliant: Tive’s solution follows the guidelines of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). All the components (hardware and software) are developed and tested following the Good Automated Manufacturing Practice 5 (GAMP 5) model. The bar is higher for medical and pharmaceutical shipments because a shipment that is late or out of temperature range could cause loss of life. The Tive Tracker is about the size of a deck of cards, and it captures and transmits shipment data in real time with unprecedented accuracy. The Tracker provides real time alerts that enable shippers and their 3PL partners to respond and recover the shipment in the case of temperature breech, tampering, shock, damage, theft, and a variety of other factors. Tive enables shippers and their carrier partners to move from reactive to proactive, which is so important when transporting medical/pharma shipments. Tive provides flexible, scalable solutions bringing end-to-end visibility to supply chain professionals. In additional to medical and pharma, Tive provides solutions for the following supply chain problem areas: Location Tracking for High-Value Goods Chemicals Condition Monitoring Handling Damage Monitoring Damage Alerts for Electronics Shipments Port Delays Environmental Monitoring for Perishables Equipment Delivery Monitoring Automotive Supply Chain Optimization Learn More About Validated, Real-Time Visibility for Pharma Josh on LinkedIn Tive on LinkedIn Tive website Tive pharma solution page Biocair case study Optimize Courier case study Mercury case study Tracking Medical Shipments with Alex Guillen The Tive Story with Krenar Komoni The Logistics of Logistics Podcast If you enjoy the podcast, please leave a positive review, subscribe, and share it with your friends and colleagues.
