Pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim has commissioned NiceLabel, a leading global developer of label design software and label management systems, to create a global standardised labelling process.
Boehringer Ingelheim had previously decided to to introduce a global SAP system at all locations, to optimise processes. This required a Global labelling system to achieve seamless ERP integration, Facilitate label changes and achieve further operational efficiency gains. The Label Management System (LMS) from NiceLabel met these requirements.
Boehringer Ingelheim utilises the entire functional spectrum of the LMS, including the integrated label designer for the design of labelling templates. The tool's document management system enables the company to replace its manual quality control procedures with a fully automated process. digitalised quality assurance process to replace it.
This gives the company access to the necessary security, approval workflows, the complete label change and the print history. LMS is also integrated into Boehringer Ingelheim's ERP system SAP ECC, which provides the pharmaceutical company with a Centralised option for updating the label information offers. With the implementation of LMS, Boehringer Ingelheim can now process labelling change requests much faster than before.
The now integrated Quality assurance workflow for the labelling management system for Boehringer Ingelheim means an immense Saving time and resources for quality assurance tasks that were previously performed manually. Boehringer Ingelheim also benefits from NiceLabel's ABAP package, which simplifies and speeds up integration.
Initially, the LMS company has already established a new production site in Ingelheim and Sant Cugat, Spain, implemented. The company plans to implement the solution in other locations worldwide, initially in Dortmund and Koropi, Greece. Both implementations are planned for non-production processes such as warehouse and quality management.
