European Union Compliance

TraceLink’s European Union Compliance (EU Compliance) solution provides an unsurpassed, comprehensive platform for managing the diverse product master data, product pack data, and product status compliance management requirements under the European Union Falsified Medicines Directive (EU FMD), the related Delegated Acts, and the related country-level mandates created by national competent authorities (NCAs).

Challenges

Manufacturers and parallel reporters that distribute products in the 30 countries governed by FMD must manage a complex array of product master data, serialized product pack data, pack identifier status changes, and product pack verification requests under the diverse rules of EU FMD.

Far from a single, simple set of reporting and data management requirements, compliance with EU FMD means that companies must also design operations, configure reports, and manage product data in complex ways, specified on a product by product basis, depending on the ultimate target market and the supply network path the product takes to get to the target market.
