VAI and LSPedia Integrate to Offer Pharmaceutical Distributors Seamless DSCSA Compliance Ahead of November Deadline

May 2, 2023

Ronkonkoma, N.Y. — May 2, 2023 — VAI, a leading ERP software developer, and LSPedia, a leader in supply chain serialization and DSCSA compliance solutions, today announced a new campaign to bring businesses in the pharmaceutical supply chain into compliance with the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA). Pharmaceutical manufacturers, wholesale distributors, 3PLs and dispensers must meet the law’s requirements before the FDA enforcement deadline of November 27, 2023, facilitating the tracing of prescription drug products through the supply chain. By integrating LSPedia’s OneScan Solution with VAI’s ERP solution, the two digital verification and supply chain technology partners are making it seamless for companies in the pharmaceutical supply chain to comply with DSCSA before the deadline.

With only seven months to go before government-mandated compliance, pharmaceutical companies must quickly digitize and serialize their inventory — yet many distributors are behind in meeting their requirements under DSCSA. To quickly get up to speed and avoid the risks of regulatory penalties and disruptions, pharmaceutical companies are turning to LSPedia’s built-in verification router service and serialization solutions to track and trace their drug supply. As an LSPedia partner, VAI is making it easy for VAI customers utilizing S2K Pharma to integrate LSPedia’s solution and comply with DSCSA.

“Distributors are looking for a cost-effective, efficient way to meet the requirements of DSCSA and optimize their supply chain for the future,” said Gina Parry, Distribution & Pharmaceutical Sales Manager at VAI. “By working with LSPedia to implement drug verification and VAI to further unlock analytics and supply chain management tools with S2K Pharma, pharmaceutical companies can rest easy knowing that they can remain compliant while also enabling growth and meeting business goals.”

LSPedia’s OneScan Suite protects the pharmaceutical supply chain with cloud-based tools for serialization, data interoperability, product verification, exceptions management, and more. By utilizing one solution for all DSCSA compliance needs, pharmaceutical companies don’t need to hire additional staff or resources to avoid non-compliance come November. For distributors looking to further optimize their warehouse operations and remain compliant, VAI’s S2K Pharma utilizes advanced technology to meet business challenges, automate processes, and collect data for reporting to drug enforcement agencies.

“Companies are now running out of time to implement DSCSA, and that brings a lot of risks,” said LSPedia CEO Riya Cao. “However, the combination of LSPedia and VAI enables any business to easily meet its requirements well in advance of November. Further, the combination presents a fantastic opportunity to optimize supply chain operations with compliance baked in, pushing business objectives forward.”
