"With Körber we are cooperating for several years as a member of the ISPE Pharma 4.0 working group, addressing digitalization challenges in life sciences manufacturing. We are very pleased to be part of the Körber Ecosystem Partner program and happy to provide a comprehensive solution for pharmaceutical companies with our PAS-X MSI interface in zenon," says Giuseppe Menin, Life Sciences & Process Industry Manager at COPA-DATA.

zenon is a software platform that helps pharmaceutical manufacturers automate their manufacturing facilities and manage data more effectively. COPA-DATA has developed strong functionality as well as comprehensive connectivity that makes it easy to integrate shop floor machines into higher systems, such as a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) - for greater efficiency, better control and comprehensive documentation of manufacturing processes.

The Werum PAS-X MES Suite from Körber controls, monitors and documents manufacturing processes digitally and in real time. With just a few mouse clicks, customers can seamlessly integrate Körber's best-of-breed ecosystem solutions from partner companies with PAS-X MSI Plug & Produce. This no-code integration uses standardized message-based communication between MES and shop floor equipment as outlined in the ISPE Plug & Produce Working Group's Concept Paper. The partnership between Körber and COPA-DATA makes it possible to implement out-of-the-box projects with zenon as a configurable interface to PAS-X MES.

"COPA-DATA's zenon software platform is a strong solution for the pharmaceutical industry particularly regarding the integration of filling lines into MES. In addition, the COPA-DATA team has already built up the required skill set for both, technology and business processes. We are pleased to have them join the PAS-X MSI Plug & Produce partner program," says Lars Hornung, Senior Principal Alliances & Technology Partners Software, Körber Business Area Pharma.
