Smart Consumables for Digital Integration in Biomanufacturing Processes

Merck KGaA

Biomanufacturers are focused on enhancing the digital maturity of their processes and facilities by adopting advanced automation, data analytics, knowledge management, and modeling tools, as outlined in the BioPhorum Digital Plant Maturity Model.

While life science suppliers have been creating new software, automation technologies, sensors, and analytical tools, the consumables used in these processes are still largely "analog”.

At Merck, we conduct research into scalable and modular smart consumables that interact with their digital environment and improve the efficiency of our customer’s purification processes and reduce errors. We are looking to fund a proposal to develop a concept and working prototype for smart downstream consumables, such as filters and chromatography media or devices. This research grant has a clear focus on features such as digital data capture and transfer, enhanced supply chain integration, and/or seamless incorporation into digital twins, process models, and automation systems.
