Technologies That Enable Pharmaceutical Automation

Pharmaceutical fulfillment and distribution companies encounter several key challenges in their operations, ranging from stringent regulatory compliance and product traceability requirements to maintaining the integrity and safety of sensitive medications.

Through advanced robotics and intelligent software, Hy-Tek automates critical tasks, reducing human errors and enhancing efficiency. Our sophisticated storage systems maximize space utilization and accommodate temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals, facilitating seamless inventory management.

Common Pharmaceutical Challenges

Temperature-Sensitive Products

Many pharmaceuticals are temperature-sensitive and require specific storage and transportation conditions to maintain their efficacy. Maintaining proper temperature controls during warehousing and distribution is critical to prevent product degradation and maintain product integrity.

Regulatory Compliance

Product seasonality poses a significant challenge for retail store fulfillment. Matching inventory with seasonal demand patterns, predicting consumer preferences, and ensuring timely availability of seasonal products are crucial to meet customer expectations and maximize sales, requiring effective inventory planning and supply chain agility.

Traceability and Serialization

Product traceability is vital in the pharmaceutical supply chain to identify and track products from manufacturing to the end consumer. Serialization requirements aim to curb counterfeiting and verify product authenticity, making compliance a significant challenge.

Pharmaceutical Solutions

Pharmaceutical fulfillment can include everything from generic unit storage on shelves and carton flow, refrigerated storage of products that must be maintained at a specific temperature, to secure storage areas where narcotics and other regulated or high-valued drugs are stored. There are various systemic checks and balances throughout the process to ensure order accuracy is maintained. All FDA regulations regarding serialization and traceability, as required by the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), are met.
