The right tools for the complexity of pharmaceutical production

Batch monitoring, lot traceability, and setup standardization — all integrated into one platform.

01 · OEE

Monitor every piece of equipment's efficiency in real time

In the pharmaceutical industry, OEE goes beyond counting parts. Cogtive calculates OEE by batch cycle time — with no distortions in availability, performance, and quality metrics.

Track MTBF, MTTR, and the top stoppage causes with an automatic Pareto chart, and get alerts when equipment exceeds the standard downtime.

02 · Flow View

Track every batch from setup to packaging

Flow View is the digital twin of your pharmaceutical production flow. See in real time where each batch is, how much time is left to finish each stage, and where the bottlenecks are.

The system automatically alerts you when a batch exceeds the holding time between stages — critical for processes with expiration windows for intermediate products.

03 · Smart Setup

Standardize product changeovers and reduce setup time

Replace paper checklists with a step-by-step digital guide right on the operator's tablet. Smart Setup standardizes every product changeover and monitors execution time in real time.

With the Ramp-Up report, track the equipment's performance in the first hours after setup and confirm whether the changeover was done correctly.

Why Cogtive

Why Cogtive for the pharmaceutical industry?

Cogtive was built for the reality of pharmaceutical manufacturing — where traceability, batch production, and compliance aren't optional. Our platform adapts to your process, not the other way around.

OEE calculated for batch processes

Unlike discrete manufacturing, pharmaceutical production works in batches. Cogtive calculates OEE by batch cycle time — with no need for unit counting and no distortions in availability metrics.

Real-time holding time monitoring

Batches that exceed the deadline between stages are automatically flagged in Flow View — yellow when approaching the limit and black once it's been exceeded. Prevent rejections and rework before they happen.

Full traceability with audit trail

Every log recorded in Cogtive is linked to the responsible user and the exact timestamp. The complete audit trail ensures traceability of every action — essential for regulated processes and audits.

Standardized setup and monitored ramp-up

A step-by-step digital guide replaces paper checklists for product changeovers. The Ramp-Up report monitors equipment performance in the first hours after setup, confirming the changeover was done correctly.

Proactive alerts to the right team

Set up automatic notifications via email, Microsoft Teams, Slack, or SMS when equipment exceeds the standard downtime or when strategic batches move to the next stage.

Automatic data collection — no spreadsheets

Data collected via shop-floor tablet or IoT sensors connected directly to the equipment. Operators log in real time and metrics update instantly — with no manual spreadsheet entry.
