Pharmacy
GxP-compliant, validation-ready, and fully traceable processes—from raw materials to finished pharmaceutical products
Chemistry
Regulatory compliance, hazardous materials and environmental management, and transparent production and supply chain processes
Food and Beverages
Reliable traceability, built-in quality, and efficient production and logistics processes
Standard where possible. Expansion where necessary.
For the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food and beverage industries, we combine a deep understanding of business processes with SAP expertise and regulatory know-how. Whether it’s a new implementation, a transformation, or further development, we create ERP solutions that stay close to the standard and take the requirements of regulated industries into account from the very beginning.
Our principle: Standardization over customization. When extensions are necessary, we consistently rely on Clean Core and the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). This results in scalable system landscapes that remain sustainable in the long term and provide room for innovation.
We factor compliance into our planning from the very beginning. Regulatory requirements are not added as an afterthought, but are integrated into processes, systems, and project procedures—in a manner tailored to the industry and with a focus on secure implementation.

SAP for the Process Industry – When Every Step Must Be Just Right
In the process industry, a product is manufactured according to a defined formula and through a series of coordinated process steps. Raw materials are measured out, mixed, processed, or refined—and cannot easily be broken down into their original components during the ongoing manufacturing process. The result: batch-managed products with fully traceable manufacturing.
That is why process stability matters. An interrupted or faulty process can not only compromise quality and yield but, in the worst case, lead to the loss of valuable raw materials or entire production batches. Processes must therefore mesh reliably—from the supply of components through bulk materials to the finished product.
With the Production Planning for the Process Industries (PP-PI) module, SAP ensures this process stability and provides an integrated tool for process manufacturing, from production requirements to the finished batch:
Planned Order
Specific customer orders and your sales and marketing plans determine your requirements. Material Requirements Planning (MRP) uses this information to generate planned orders that specify what is to be produced, when, and in what quantity. The planning recipe serves as the basis for this.
Process Order
Is production about to begin? Are all the necessary materials and resources available? If so, approve the planned orders. This creates process orders, which describe in detail how a material is manufactured.
Production
Production begins once the production orders are approved. Raw materials and components are processed according to the formula. Quality inspections, along with the corresponding documentation, can take place at various stages.
Registration & Booking
Quantities, consumption, and times are reported. The resulting product is posted to the corresponding batch and is available for the next steps.
Quality and batch traceability are integral to the entire process.
Choosing an ERP System with a Clear Perspective
In the life sciences industry, selecting an ERP system is more than just an IT decision. Amid regulatory requirements, processes subject to validation, and established system landscapes, one key question arises: Which solution is truly the right fit for your company?
INFORMATICS provides structured support to life sciences companies throughout the entire selection process—from process analysis and the creation of a robust requirements specification to an informed system decision and implementation. We evaluate solutions based on specific requirements, GxP-relevant framework conditions, and long-term objectives—with an open approach to technology and a clear focus on feasibility.
Even as an SAP partner, we deliberately keep an open mind during the selection process—thinking in terms of solutions, not systems.
Trust Built on Real-World Experience
SAP S/4HANA Transformation in the Partner Network
Complex transformation projects in regulated industries can rarely be addressed in isolation. That is why we deliberately rely on a strong network of partners.
The Life Sciences Alliance brings together specialized partners to implement validated SAP S/4HANA solutions for medium-sized companies in the pharmaceutical and medical technology sectors. INFORMATICS is part of this network and, together with experienced partners, combines diverse perspectives and expertise—from strategic roadmaps through implementation and transformation to CSV validation.
For you, this means: tailored process models, consolidated life sciences expertise, and solutions that meet regulatory requirements—throughout the entire project lifecycle.
