Leading Radiopharmaceutical Provider Pharmalucence Selects Pilgrim Software For Quality And Compliance Management

Pilgrim Software, Inc., a world-leading provider of Enterprise Risk, Compliance and Quality Management software solutions, recently announced that Pharmalucence, Inc., a radiopharmaceutical manufacturer and provider of contract aseptic drug production services, has named Pilgrim as it automated risk, compliance and quality management systems provider.

Pharmalucence will implement Pilgrim's solutions for document management, change control, training management, and events (CAPA) management at its Massachusetts-based operations. With the Pilgrim platform in place, the company will strengthen and sustain its ongoing compliance while improving operational efficiencies and cost containment efforts.

Pharmalucence is currently engaged in the design and pre-production planning to support construction of a new corporate headquarters and state-of-the-art drug production facility. Implementation of an automated risk, compliance and quality management system is a critical piece in aiding the company to move to state-of-the-art operations in all functions. By installing the Pilgrim software solutions now, Pharmalucence will be able to move from a manual system to an automated one in preparation for occupancy of its new space in 2012.

"Pharmalucence is adapting this automated, integrated solution model as we prepare our business for the future," said Bill Waters, Chief Financial Officer for Pharmalucence. "We identified the need to evolve from a manual approach to QA/RA procedures and workflow, to what Pilgrim provides – a fully automated process that will greatly improve efficiencies and allow enterprise-wide visibility into key quality and compliance data in real time and across all functions."

Pharmalucence will gain rapid data visibility and have total control over the format, appearance, and context of all quality reports using Pilgrim's SmartInsight™ Report Writer. This easy-to-use solution allows business users to instantly create professional, custom log reports that they can save and reuse whenever they wish.

"By selecting Pilgrim's platform, Pharmalucence gains a fully automated quality management system that ensures regulatory compliance, improves productivity and reduces operational costs," said Prashanth Rajendran, Pilgrim's Chief Operating Officer. "Additionally, Pharmalucence will benefit considerably from the consolidation of its inter-departmental connectivity because the systems are fully integrated."
