Full life cycle solutions enable the digital transformation of the life sciences industry
Facing the basic national conditions of “deep aging”, life science enterprises urgently need to enhance their competitiveness and improve production efficiency to meet the growing market demand.
In the Life science industry sub-conference, focusing on the many challenges faced by customers from “engineering construction” to “production and operation”, Wang Peidong, head of Life Science Industry of Schneider Electric’s industrial automation business, shared the “seven-step approach” to digital transformation. Through the implementation of seven steps, including digital transformation consulting services, integrated design, asset information management center, operations information management center, intelligent facilities, efficient operations, and integrated operations center, customers can achieve production management and control of the whole life cycle. At the same time, the meeting also shared with the guests the implementation path of “building digital cornerstone with intelligent facility solutions” and “driving digital production with compliance data”, and effectively solved customers’ pain points through specific digital solutions to help enterprises realize the four major values of security compliance, lean and efficient, open and transparent, and green and sustainable.
In the construction of Merieux Bio’s Suzhou site, Schneider Electric provided end-to-end distribution, automation and information solutions, including EMS, Power Operation, EcoStruxure™ Building Operation, environmental monitoring system, and power monitoring system. Production process automation system PAS based on AVEVA system platform, with more advanced management and control technology, more efficient energy efficiency strategy, promote automation and improve users’ management of environmental and production data, improve efficiency and productivity, and help them achieve sustainable development, creating a benchmark in the biopharmaceutical industry.
