Preparing Companies for the Final Phase of the DSCSA
A Collaborative Approach: DSCSA Insights from Industry Leaders
With less than 90 days remaining, companies must ensure their systems are prepared, including securing Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) credentials for Authorized Trading Partner (ATP) verification, confirmation and traceability. In August of 2024, the HDA Traceability Seminar gathered healthcare supply chain leaders to discuss these milestones and innovative serialization and traceability solutions for supply chain security. During the event, industry experts and authors Marc Blekkink, Managing Director of Movilitas.Cloud at Engineering Industries eXcellence, Herb Wong, Chief Customer Officer Antares Vision Group and Dwight deVera, Managing Director of RxSupply Chain Advisors presented their white paper outlining a pilot program designed to address transactional errors under the DSCSA. The paper discusses the immense scale of serialized data exchange requirements, involving trillions of serial numbers and billions of transactions across hundreds of thousands of trading partners. Even a minor error rate could lead to a plethora of issues, overwhelming existing platforms and causing inefficiencies and drug shortages. The Exception Pilot is a collaboration among manufacturers, wholesalers, dispensers and solution providers. It focuses on catching errors, collaborating for resolution and correcting data to ensure compliance and seamless distribution in the pharmaceutical supply chain.
