A path to real-time release is but one of the benefits that comes from digitization and automation. To make real-time release a reality, manufacturers must digitize the production processes underpinning their product releases — the management of batch records, various and sundry logbooks, and shop-floor integrations with equipment, sensors and other production software systems. These processes not only first need to be digitized, but they must also be fully integrated so data can be consolidated and easily analyzed. You won’t be able to make the leap to real-time release tomorrow if you haven’t established a digital foundation today. In this session, you will learn how to:
Brian Curran oversees the success of MasterControl’s Manufacturing Excellence (Mx) solution in the quest to digitize the 80% of life sciences manufacturing, large and small, that still use paper for their batch records or device history records. Curran has the privilege of working externally with Mx customers and internally across MasterControl from R&D to sales, services, and support to ensure Mx success and adoption.
Curran joined MasterControl in 2002 to direct and expand MasterControl’s product lines. In 2017 he switched to focus on bringing Mx to market, which happened mid-2019 and now has well over 100 customers who have completed hundreds of thousands of production records.
Curran began his career with IBM, where he led consulting engagements with Fortune 500 companies, such as MCI, Bellsouth, and others. After this he held several director and VP level product management positions for software companies serving the telecommunications and web analytics sectors. Curran has an MBA with an information systems emphasis.
