Supply Chain Overview
Materials Management (receipt, storage, shipment)
We manage a range of materials from APIs and raw materials to finished products. We have the capability to handle toxic, potent, flammable, and hazardous materials. Our secure, cGMP warehouse utilizes ICH storage conditions including controlled room temperature (15-25°C), 2-8°C, -20°C, and -80°C. We also provide distribution of clinical trial materials, as well as temperature controlled shipping for temperature sensitive products.
Sampling and Dispensing
Singota can aliquot materials from bulk to specified weights or volumes into appropriate containers for testing, development, and manufacturing purposes. These operations are performed in our designated cleanrooms under ISO 8 conditions.
Cold Chain Solutions
Our cold chain experts have the experience and knowledge to manage temperature sensitive materials throughout the distribution process. We offer pharma cold chain services to our clients in both upfront design and execution phases.
- Design services include packaging recommendations, cold chain design and mapping, and shipper qualification services (thermal and mechanical).
- Pharma cold chain management services include GMP warehouse storage with validated thermal monitoring systems, procedures for proper shipper pack-out, in-transit temperature recording, time out of refrigeration (TOR) monitoring, and arrangement of domestic and worldwide material distribution under controlled temperature conditions.
Transportation Simulation Laboratory
The Transportation Simulation Laboratory (TSL) is located at Singota’s facility in Bloomington, Indiana and consists of a large environmental champer equipped with a control system, calibrated sensors, and a validated data collection system with mechanical and hydraulic equipment that can simulate a customized distribution environment profile. Environmental hazards in transport that can be applied include:
