Case Study: MedImmune achieves enterprise‑wide EH&S standardization and reduced incident rates with Sparta Systems' TrackWise

MedImmune Harnesses the Power of TrackWise for EnterpriseWide EH&S System

MedImmune, the biologics unit of AstraZeneca with about 3,300 employees across the US, UK and the Netherlands, faced an outdated paper-based EH&S system that hampered incident reporting and lacked standardized tracking for corrective and preventive actions (CAPAs). The company needed a modern, web-based, enterprise-wide solution to standardize definitions and processes at the corporate level (while allowing site-level variation), improve regulatory compliance and drive continuous EH&S improvement.

MedImmune chose to leverage its existing enterprise tools, configuring Sparta Systems’ TrackWise EQMS (integrated with broader IT investments) to deliver centralized tracking, workflow management and audit trails without costly custom coding; the team implemented seven EH&S workflows within six months. The system now holds 5,000+ records, has been adopted by other departments, reduced incident rates, streamlined CAPA and reporting processes, and produced measurable cost and compliance benefits compared with the prior paper-based approach.
