Pharmaceutical Cold Chain with Compliance
End-to-end vaccine and pharmaceutical shipment monitoring across multiple countries with an automated temperature and handling record
Who Is This For
Pharmaceutical supply chain manager responsible for regulatory compliance, product integrity, and multi-country distribution operations, accountable for cold chain excursion investigations and audit documentation.
The Challenge
Vaccines require strict temperature control (typically 2–8°C) throughout the entire supply chain. Manual logging creates gaps and errors, excursions go undetected until delivery, and regulatory documentation is time-consuming to compile.
Key Pain Points
- Temperature excursions may occur during any handoff between transport modes
- Manual paper logs are error-prone and incomplete
- Regulatory audits require complete, verifiable temperature records
- Excursion investigations are slow without continuous data
How Cypod Solves It
CyTag sensors attached to individual cases continuously monitor temperature and humidity, relaying data over Bluetooth to the CySeal on the container, which locks the doors and reports where the container is. The IoT Management Platform generates real-time excursion alerts and exports a full temperature and handling record for the shipment at delivery, for you to file with your own submissions.
Key Solution Features
- CyTag on each vaccine case: continuous temperature, humidity and ambient light monitoring
- CySeal on the container: tamper-resistant lock, GPS tracking, and the gateway the CyTag sensors report through
- Automated excursion alerts sent immediately to designated stakeholders
- Auto-generated temperature and handling reports at delivery
Key Benefits
Continuous monitoring eliminates data gaps in regulatory records
Automated compliance documentation replaces manual reporting
Excursion alerts enable rapid corrective action during shipment
Complete chain of custody reduces regulatory audit burden
