Pfizer Case Study on AVEVA PI System Implementation

This case study outlines Pfizer's implementation of the AVEVA PI System to enhance operational efficiency in its Small Molecule Division. The document details the challenges faced due to data silos that hindered collaboration and increased manual processes. To address these issues, Pfizer aimed to create a single source of truth for operational insights accessible across the organization. The case study describes how Pfizer utilized the AVEVA PI System to digitize its drug discovery process, focusing on the portable, continuous, miniature, and modular (PCMM) machine for oral solid doses. It explains the digital-integration strategy that was developed, which included aggregating data, fostering collaboration, and implementing analytics for decision-making. The results of this implementation are significant, showing a 50% reduction in compliance reporting time and a 90% faster alarm resolution. The document emphasizes the importance of contextualized data models and cloud-based solutions in improving operational efficiency and supporting Pfizer's mission to deliver life-saving medications more quickly.
