Case Study: Major Pharmaceutical Company accelerates pharma R&D with Seeq Corporation

Major Pharmaceutical Company - Customer Case Study

Major Pharmaceutical Company needed a faster, less error-prone way to compare experiment and pilot batch data during pharma product development. Manually combining data in spreadsheets and aligning timestamps was taking too much time and making it harder to move new products to market quickly. Seeq Corporation provided the analytics platform used to address this challenge.

Seeq Corporation connected to the company’s process historian and text-file data sources to visually represent batches, calculate scale-up metrics and batch KPIs, and compare experiments in Seeq Workbench. The team used batch-based contextualization, data cleansing, and capsule calculations to evaluate dissolved oxygen trends and cell-specific oxygen uptake rates, then documented results in electronic journals and Seeq Organizer. The impact included a faster process-development cycle worth about $1.5 million, plus roughly $87,000 in process time savings and $70,000 in engineering manpower improvement.
