4IR Solutions

Industrial organizations, particularly in regulated industries like Life Sciences, have historically been hesitant to store GxP data in the cloud. But with COVID-19 pushing many organizations into accelerating their digital transformation roadmaps, the cloud has become a differentiating, and in some cases essential, technology that allows manufacturers to stay competitive through cost savings while enabling new ways to drive value. With deep experience in the Life Sciences industry, 4IR Solutions has developed a new cloud-hosted platform powered by Ignition, designed to meet the unique regulatory and compliance challenges faced by Life Science manufacturers, including Data Integrity and 21 CFR Part 11. This session will provide an inside look at how this platform makes Ignition a Smarter, Faster, Stronger tool by putting security first while enhancing Ignition's core capabilities through integration with cloud-native technologies. Executives from 4IR Solutions will provide an overview and demonstration of the platform and discuss how system integrators and manufacturers alike can leverage their existing Ignition skills to deliver secure, compliant, and cloud-enhanced solutions on top of 4IR's managed platform.

Keeping the Cure, Secure:COVID-19 Vaccine Batch Monitoring

Johnson & Johnson's pharmaceutical arm, Janssen, embarked on a global effort to combat the COVID-19 pandemic and worked with a contract manufacturer to supply one billion doses of vaccine. Large-scale manufacturing of Janssen's vaccine would occur at the contract manufacturing site, specializing in rapidly manufacturing vaccines and other treatments in large quantities during public health emergencies. Janssen required access to near-real-time data to monitor key production and quality metrics and to assure the success of each batch. The contract manufacturer's Operation Technology infrastructure of control systems and data collection is isolated from internal and outside networks — particularly networks with internet access. The contract manufacturer tasked Automation Control Concepts (ACC) with creating a secure data pipeline providing this information to Janssen, which is an evolution in the collaboration between contract manufacturers and vaccine developers, as historical data is usually exchanged via Excel or text files after the batch is completed. In this session, learn how ACC used Ignition to provide the real-time data required to react to deviations immediately and save batches that would otherwise be lost.
