Darnitsa Pharmaceutical Company commenced the second stage of transformation of the management system. It provides for changes in quality and warehouse logistics management processes to improve and integrate information systems and processes into a single infrastructure. This is reported by the press service of the company.

We cooperate with the leaders of the global IT market and implement state-of-the-art solutions. The introduction of digital technologies with the simultaneous reengineering of all processes improves the company management, increases the transparency and efficiency of the business. The company management system will become an integral organism, managed by the cloud version of ERP. While changing, we are becoming a part of the global digital economy,” Shymkiv noted.
The changes will take the logistics processes in the company to a new development level due to the implementation of solutions from the global leaders - SSI Schaefer for a robotic warehouse and SAP in the field of supply chain management.
