As the lead system integrator, we are proud that the launch of SAP Intelligent Clinical Supply Management was such a sucess. An industry consortium of leading pharma companies, industry service and software providers, and SAP is developing the platform, designed with an ecosystem approach.

The SAP Intelligent Clinical Supply Management Ecosystem

Clinical trial supply chains operate globally and have interactions with and dependencies on 3rd party partners. With Tenthpin providing much of the solution know-how, Intelligent Clinical Supply Management will be an ecosystem solution with integrations to partners and IRT providers using industry standards.

IRT integration

Integration capabilities with study IRT solutions will cover all depot to site inventory requests through execution. Anonymized patient enrollment and visit information will be included to allow for improved clinical supply planning and replenishment algorithms.

3rd party integration

Integration capabilities to drug manufacturers, packagers, and distributors are being developed leveraging cloud technologies. The resulting end-to-end visibility of near real-time inventory in a standards-based IT architecture will benefit drug sponsors and 3rd parties.

Clinical trial supply analytics

Measuring and visualizing performance at multiple levels (site, depot, 3rd party, study, program, etc.) is crucial to managing today’s complex clinical studies. Our analytics solutions integrate seamlessly into the SAP Intelligent Clinical Supply Management ecosystem and offer improved oversight and automation of actions across the clinical trial.
