The story of pharmaceutical production is often a quest for the golden batch: a repeatable process that consistently optimizes yield and quality. Recently an animal health subsidiary of Boehringer Ingelheim - a top international pharmaceutical company - began collaborating with Sartorius Stedim Data Analytics, a long time OSIsoft partner, on a project that uses multivariate data analysis techniques (MVDA) to create golden batch trajectories based on historic data. These golden batch trajectories can then be used for real-time monitoring and prescriptive process control for higher potency batches.
