A mid-size manufacturer
brought distribution up to the
standard of its QA.
The situation
A mid-size pharmaceutical manufacturer distributing biologics through regional specialty distributors in North America and Europe.
The problem
Distribution cold chain didn't match the rigor of manufacturing QA, shippers with no validation data, inconsistent SOPs across depots, and a regulatory query after a health authority inspection.
What TempAid delivered
A Cube+ system with ISTA 7D/7E validation, GS1-labeled SKUs, and a standardized SOP deployed across four depots. The Lab ran a custom summer profile for the southern European distribution lane.
What changed
Distribution held to the same validation standard as manufacturing QA.
One SOP deployed across all four depot locations.
The last health authority inspection closed with no cold chain query.
“We stopped treating distribution as the step after QA. Now it’s held to the same standard, and the last inspection closed without a single cold chain query.”
