XFP MES: the New Software for the Pharmaceutical Sector that Secures Manufacture and Offers More Advanced Quality Control



Chicago, May 13, 2005

Elan Software Systems has designed the MES computer solution for regulated industries, particularly the pharmaceutical industry. The aim of the XFP software solution is the controlling, guiding and tracking of manufacture in operations with stringent quantity and security requirements. It ensures real-time control of the quality and safety of the good application and progress of manufacturing processes. XFP provides computerized management of all the resources and commands related to manufacture while combining robustness and reliability and saving time.

The XFP MES, a standard parameterable program, is a modular system consisting of three main components that a company can purchase together or separately. Each major component guides and ensures the security of a major manufacturing stage: flow and logistics management, computerized weighing or the computerized execution of operating procedures, referred to as the electronic batch record. This electronic record generates "paperless" production.

XFP offers many distinct advantages, including: real time control of manufacture with the highest possible quality; detection and elimination of process errors, deviations and anomalies; shorter manufacturing time; faster batch release; enhanced compliance with regulations; and full traceability and history of each batch.

Used today by 7 of the 10 world pharmaceutical majors, XFP operates in 7 languages at more than 100 production sites in 16 countries. Its users include Abbott, Baxter Healthcare, Cardinal Health, Gencell, Glaxosmithkline, Johnson & Johnson, Massachusetts Biologicial Laboratories, Merck, Novartis, Octapharma, Pfizer, Sanofi-Aventis, Schering, Takeda and UCB Pharma among others.
