Temperature Mapping

Problem

Time and Temperature Sensitive Pharmaceutical Products (TTSPP) producers and dealers face numerous challenges related to standard mapping protocols largely because of the complexities involved in carrying out this all-important exercise. Foodrug has developed a simple approach to carrying out systematic mapping procedures in cold rooms, freezer rooms or other temperature-controlled environments. These SOPs guide each of our projects in accordance with international best practices in determining temperature distribution in rooms or areas.

Solution

FSI combines well-engineered technology with sophisticated data analytics to provide our clients with detailed and real-time microclimate information. We use the best temperature loggers and humidity technologies which target individual problems. Our products use proprietary analysis routines with little human interaction that offer actionable information as follows:
• Record high-resolution Temperature & Humidity readings simultaneously.
• A real-time clock provides date/time stamps for each temperature reading.
• Push-to-start button with optional delay or a specific time & date.
• Comprehensive customization options including alert settings, sample interval and trip duration.
• Unique external temperature sensor arrangement providing fast reaction time to temperature change.
• Up to 8,000 recordings – enough for the longest trip.
• In-transit inspections can be recorded at the push of a button.
• Free available companion software Analyzer that downloads readings and automatically analyzes data via charting, zooming, listing data statistics and allows exporting the data to other applications such as Excel

Our Innovative Temperature Logging Model

How FSI solves three major issues faced by TTSPP dealers using an innovative temperature logging model

The FSI temperature mapping model is built to;
• Identify area temperature profiles
• Determine the timeframe of hourly, daily and weekly temperature variations
• Identify high & low temperature fluctuations caused by environmental control systems
• Identify potential airflow issues that may be the cause of temperature variations
• Assist managers in taking operational decisions such as; upgrade mechanical systems, identification of suitable TTSPP storage zones, minimization of cold or hot spots etc.

Our Competitive Advantage

Foodrug sits in a unique space within this industry, as one of the very few actors focused solely on the application of EDLM applications in Food, Healthcare, Pharmaceutical, Agric and Industrial Processes. We are further differentiated by the analytics aspect of our technology. While our closest competitors are using similar technology, they are designed to simply provide readout temperature units that have to be analyzed manually with heavy human involvement devoid of standard accuracy. What FSI offers that no one currently does, is real-time indexing and data analysis using sophisticated WHO approved data analysis software. Which automatically records, consolidates data by feeding that environmental data into temperature mapping algorithms and predictive quality algorithms. The results then provide our clients with simple, actionable information for improved operations management. Indeed, Foodrug is positioned to provide the industry with an unprecedented degree of predictive accuracy.
