On May 4, 2023, Lonza Bioscience Informatics will present a free 45-minute webinar that includes a discussion with Dr Phanesh Koneru, CEO, Exela® Pharma Sciences. During the conversation, Phanesh will share why adopting an MES was imperative to realizing the company’s vision, what he learned from his hands-on approach to implementation, and the impact the system is already having. As well as gathering exclusive insights from Phanesh, attendees will get the chance to ask Richard Kelley, Associate Director, Informatics, Lonza Bioscience, questions, and learn from his significant MES expertise.  

MES bring numerous benefits to pharma and biopharmaceutical manufacturers, from improved efficiencies to increased productivity. However, implementing an MES typically requires significant resources, planning and management, and has various hurdles to overcome including integrating MES into existing business critical applications. So, what was the impact of Phanesh not only setting the direction, but actively driving the adoption of an MES at Exela® Pharma, and how did he work with Lonza to ensure his business would reap the rewards of a digitalized system?

During the webinar “Taking the Leap into an MES from a CEO’s Perspective”, Phanesh and Richard will discuss a range of topics including:

• Evaluation criteria for selecting an MES
• Approach to validation
• User adoption
• The importance of vendor and service partner collaboration, and how these roles evolved over the project

Lonza has extensive knowledge and experience in developing informatics solutions to support and empower manufacturers. By hosting this webinar, Lonza hopes to provide a space where companies can come together and learn directly from organizations who have already embarked on their digitalization journey.
