Introduction

Challenge

A global pharmaceutical manufacturer specializing in biologics needed to ensure the safe, compliant transport of temperature-sensitive vaccines across its North American distribution network. With strict chain-of-custody regulations and tight temperature thresholds, the company sought a solution that could offer real-time visibility, automated compliance monitoring, and predictive alerts to prevent spoilage.

Challenge

The biologics company was struggling to maintain strict temperature compliance across its cold chain during long-haul shipments. Manual reporting processes made it difficult to spot deviations in time, while limited visibility meant any excursion risked regulatory fines, product loss, and patient safety.

The Solution

System Loco deployed its cold chain intelligence platform across the company’s North American fleet. Smart sensors were embedded in totes and containers to continuously monitor internal temperature, location, and environmental conditions. Real-time alerts and automated audit trails were integrated directly into the company’s QMS and ERP systems, eliminating the need for manual data collection or spot checks.

Results & Impact

During a 6-month pilot, the solution achieved 100% compliance on monitored shipments, with zero product loss due to temperature excursions. Manual reporting was reduced by 85%, while automated chain-of-custody logs streamlined inspections. This led to improved operational confidence and ensured better regulatory alignment.
