InfoPro Solutions Introduces the World’s First MRP Solution for Clinical Supplies
WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Feb. 5, 2004–InfoPro Solutions: — InfoPro Solutions announced the release of the Clinicopia cMRP System — the Manufacturing Resource Planning tool developed specifically for managing Clinical Supplies, the newest addition to its Clinicopia Suite, the world’s first purpose-built, industry-specific, fully integrated Clinical Trials Supply Chain (CTSC) Suite developed from the ground up.
InfoPro Solutions announced the addition of Clinicopia cMRP System to its line of products within the Clinicopia Suite. The cMRP System will further enhance Clinicopia’s value proposition within the mission-critical clinical supply chain process by providing clinical supply managers with a powerful, yet easy-to-use and flexible MRP system. Clinicopia cMRP allows you to view your entire clinical manufacturing process over time and plan accordingly.
With the ability to seamlessly integrate with other components of the Clinicopia Suite, this system uses the information from a bill of material, inventory data and the master production schedule to make build v/s buy decisions and create suggested purchase orders as well as manufacturing and packaging orders.
“Detailed and coordinated schedules needed for purchasing and production demand a powerful management tool like Clinicopia cMRP. This allows you to be pro-active rather than re-active when it comes to the management of both the inventory levels as well as the manufacturing infrastructure within your clinical supplies and material flow,” said Douglas Meyer, Vice President Pharmaceutical Science at InfoPro Solutions.
Some of the key functionality within the system includes the ability to generate suggested orders based directly upon demand and current stocks by running the MRP engine as part of a pre-scheduled batch process or on demand to respond to rapidly changing trial requirements. It also has the ability to configure materials to be re-ordered either based upon the explosion of the BOM by cMRP or on a pre-determined re-order point. The user can view material and stock levels for each suggested order and make changes or deletions prior to the confirmation of the same, control individual cMRP parameters at the material master and lot level and view resource availability and plant capacity versus current and planned work orders.
