INDUSTRY PRESENTATION |
|
Materials Authentication and Verification within the Pharmaceutical Supply
Chain: Working with and Moving Beyond Track and Trace
|
By Alan Clock, Sr. VP Sales
& Marketing and John Lundquist, VP, Sales and Business Development |
|
It is widely accepted that implementation of a track and trace system is a
leading tool to aid pharmaceutical manufacturers in the counterfeiting and
diversion battle. However, tracking systems do not tell the whole
story because, as a stand alone solution, these technologies do not have the
capabilities to verify the physical drug inside a manufacturer's sealed
bottle.
This presentation aims to fill the conceptual gaps in securing
the pharmaceutical supply chain and follows the introduction of
authentication and verification technology as a solution for this
rapidly growing threat.
Alan Clock presented this topic at CBI's Premier Forum on
Anti-Counterfeiting and Anti-Diversion Strategies, October 2008. |
