Why Platform Reliability Matters More Than Ever in Pharma Supply Chains

With DSCSA interoperability now in effect, system reliability isn’t just important — it’s the foundation of compliance.

Outages Are Already Disrupting Pharma Supply Chains

Across the industry, compliance platforms have faltered — with outages causing EPCIS transmissions to fail, shipments to be delayed, and partners to lose confidence. These aren’t edge cases; they’ve been real disruptions at the worst possible moments.

Now that enforcement is active, there’s no buffer. Every file must move on time, every time. When a system goes down, compliance, operations, and trust are all immediately at risk.

Instability Creates Compliance Gaps

Platform downtime doesn’t just stall IT — it puts the entire supply chain in jeopardy:

  • EPCIS file deliveries fail
  • Shipments are delayed or held
  • Manual workarounds drain resources
  • Compliance teams scramble under audit pressure

The result is wasted time, partner frustration, and higher exposure in an enforcement era where precision and stability are non-negotiable.

If your platform regularly forces workarounds or leaves you wondering “Did that file really go through?” — reliability has become your biggest compliance gap.
