MSD Global Digital Validation Rollout

Executing on its visionary Global Quality Management Systems Strategy, industry leaders Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp. (MSD), a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth, NJ, USA selected Kneat to digitalize seven validation work processes across two divisions (Manufacturing and Research) at 27 sites around the world.

As a result of this top-down corporate-led initiative, MSD achieved a “more than 50% cycle time reduction for test execution”, simplified process steps from 15 to just eight on average and eliminated reliance on three different quality management systems, generating “very significant value in dollars” for the organization.

Understand how, through this top-down, corporate-led project, MSD and Kneat partnered to achieve global end-to-end digitization of validation, enabling MSD to accelerate product launches, improve real-time regulatory data provision, and enable remote validation throughout COVID-19.
