369-HI-R-0-F-0-0-E The BioPhorum Digital Plant Maturity Model describes life sciences companies’ factories as five maturity levels, from simple paper-based factories to fully automated and integrated “adaptive factories” of the future. This means that the construction of “lighthouse factory” cannot be generalized, but should be “based on factory measures”. Schneider Electric believes that the construction goals, basic status, natural endowments and future development directions of each factory are different, and can not blindly pursue the unification and high-end construction, but to formulate different top-level design and construction plans for the specific situation and needs of different enterprises. As an “enabler”, Schneider Electric takes consulting as the guide to help customers in the life science industry to provide comprehensive and complete solutions from the strategic level, operational level and technical level to escort the landing of the “lighthouse factory” in the life science industry.
In the evaluation and planning phase of the “Lighthouse factory”, Schneider Electric can provide life science enterprises with lighthouse factory basic training, 4IR use case improvement or introduction suggestions, lighthouse factory construction planning and other multi-dimensional services. In terms of the 369-HI-R-0-F-0-0-E igital transformation needs of enterprises, Schneider Electric can help them carry out top-level strategic planning such as lean production, supply chain coordination, production optimization, smart factory planning, and formulate more in-depth and refined digital transformation strategies, determine digital objectives and implementation plans, evaluate digital priorities and feasibility, and then comprehensively empower organizations to improve corporate efficiency. Achieve better transformation results.
For example, the life sciences industry has more stringent requirements for data throughout the factory process, and the management of data assets needs to be considered from the start. Schneider Electric’s digital twin-based Asset Information Management platform (AVEVA AIM, EcoStruxure AIA) helps life sciences companies build engineering project hubs that optimize project schedule, operational performance and safety based on data from multiple information sources and systems, laying the foundation for the creation of digital twin plants. In response to the challenges of a large consumer goods enterprise in terms of industrial control level, business and data collaboration, production management flexibility and toughness, Schneider Electric has developed a digital intelligence plan with the industry lighthouse architecture as the core, helping it to clarify the digital blueprint, mining the industry’s advanced use cases, and realizing the integration of business, process and data. Guide the enterprise “lighthouse factory” construction landing.
In addition, through Schneider Electric’s Dual Carbon Advisory service, life science companies can unders369-HI-R-0-F-0-0-E tand what real carbon reduction is and implement it into actual carbon reduction actions through carbon footprint mapping, carbon reduction planning, and future carbon reduction targets and implementation disclosure.
During the construction phase of the “Lighthouse Factory”, Schneider Electric has a complete integrated hardware and software solution for the life sciences industry. For example, drug processing is the most core link of biopharmaceuticals. Schneider Electric has process control solutions for different segments (such as AVEVA System Platform, EPE process control experts, etc.). In the horizontal dimension, it can cover the entire product process from raw material storage, biological processing to finished product delivery. In the vertical dimension, it realizes the interconnection at all levels from workshop control to MES to enterprise-level ERP, so as to make the production process of pharmaceutical companies more sustainable and resilient.
