Orion is a globally operating Finnish pharmaceutical company who develop, manufacture, and market human and veterinary pharmaceuticals and active pharmaceutical ingredients. The Packaging Technology department, crucial to Orion's operations, oversees the management of printed secondary materials, which includes handling artwork management. Their artwork design team creates, and updates artwork based on requests, while secondary material specialists manage the overall process.
Orion faced several challenges with their previous artwork management system including complex label approval processes, maintenance and support issues, and lack of automation. While exploring alternatives, Loftware's Smartflow stood out due to its integration, built-in workflow automation, and master data management capabilities.
Loftware Smartflow significantly transformed Orion’s artwork management by streamlining processes, integrating real-time systems, and automating tasks. The improvements in process transparency, data reliability, and ease of system management have been key to supporting Orion’s business growth and operational efficiency in a complex pharmaceutical environment.
