Tech Chat: Make Serialization, Aggregation and Repackaging Easy

Boehringer Ingelheim needed serialized manufacturing and reporting for the Chinese market, connected to the lines already on its shop floor. Klaus Imig and Marc Blekkink explain how they set it up with Movilitas.Cloud

ABOUT THE TECH CHAT

For process manufacturers, serialization touches every step from packaging to quality assurance to logistics, while reporting obligations differ by market. In this conversation, Klaus Imig, Director of IT Operations and Supply Chain Integrity at Boehringer Ingelheim, and Marc Blekkink of Movilitas.Cloud discuss how Boehringer Ingelheim uses Movilitas.Cloud for serialized manufacturing and compliance with Chinese regulatory requirements. They cover how the solution was connected to existing serialization and aggregation lines, how serialized labels are printed directly from the platform, and how reporting to government agencies and business partners is handled without manual steps on the shop floor.
