LSPediA today announced the company has successfully completed the FDA DSCSA Pilot Program Project, Router Service Solution for Verification/Notification and Interoperability 2023. Working with companies composed of between 200 to 20,000 employees, the pilot focused on end-to-end supply chain activities using the unique product identifier to perform verifications and interoperability.
The pilot achieved several firsts in the industry:
The most live serialized Rx packages verified – Over 20,000 packages are scanned and verified end to end in the supply chain by the unique Product Identifier. The most functional groups participated – Over 11 functional groups worked activities related to managing the serialized Rx. They represent production, warehouse, supply chain, quality, compliance, IT, customer service, accounting, pharmacy operations, corporate security, and reverse logistics. The most complete serialized supply chain demonstration with live inventory – Participants saw products moved end to end and learned the functions and usage of unique a Product Identifier beyond their four walls. The most complete verification scenarios – The pilot performed 10 verification scenarios covering returns, positive, negative, recall, suspect, counterfeit, illegitimate, theft, fraud, and phishing.The pilot participating companies who represented the end-to-end Rx supply chain are manufacturer, wholesaler, and dispenser partners. Working in concert with Kowa, Ingenus, Auburn Pharma, AmerisourceBergen, Smith Drug, and SpartanNash, LSPediA’s FDA Pilot Project successfully executed planned activities and accomplished goals and objectives proposed. A final report was submitted to the FDA and is available to download by request through LSPediA. The report provides a wealth of data, KPIs, and other information, summarized here:
4 process maps developed 7 participanting companies 10 verificaiton scenarios 15 participating prescription products in unit and case 22737 Rx packages scanned 17,287 serialized packages verified“First and foremost, we extend our appreciation to all of the participants,” said Riya Cao, LSPediA CEO. “Thanks to everyone who dedicated time and resources to create an environment that mimicked a production-like transaction pool of data and activity.”
The Pilot Project’s important findings and achievements include:
Testing the state-of-the-art OneScan software, including its Investigator module, which enables a collaborative and automated single-source-of-truth platform for product investigations An industry recommendation concerning undesirable labeling practices encountered in the product verification process Discovering that, based on warehouse inventory scans, a large number of “good” products are still failing verification due to barcode anomalies A readiness issue discovered during negative verification “fire drills,” which revealed SOP gaps including serialization and documentation, audit trails, etc. Products associated with manufacturers not using OneScan failed to return a verification response due to their solution providers not being enabled or in productionThe FDA will now spend time absorbing the comprehensive reporting and likely issue a report containing insights and industry guidance.

India questions US ‘double standards’ as Pakistan secures F-16 upgrade deal
Washington’s decision to upgrade Pakistan’s F-16 fighter jets has drawn accusations of double standards from critics in India, who question why the United States is strengthening a nuclear-armed ally while waging war against Iran over its nuclear programme. Although the US$686 million military modernisation package does not include nuclear weapons, analysts say that improvements to the fighter jets’ navigation, communications and survivability could boost Pakistan’s existing nuclear strike...
Why raising prices in Japan amid ‘insanely high’ inflation backfires on firms
When Japan’s “symbol of affordability” Uniqlo decided to increase the price of its basic socks last month, it sparked a backlash before the clothing titan made an immediate U-turn.

For most of his life, Osman Uki lived in a world dictated by the sun, relying on kerosene and leftover cooking oil to light his home in a remote indigenous village in Malaysia. That changed in April when solar power finally reached Kampung Bertang in the state of Pahang, allowing families to power electric lights, refrigerators and rice cookers. For Osman, one of the biggest changes is what happens after sunset. “We are happy with the light we have at night. The kids can read at night now. We...
Indonesians furious as Batam data centres drain taps: ‘we cannot cook without water’
Cooking and bathing became difficult when taps ran dry in Batam, an Indonesian island where residents are protesting against data centres springing up to power the global artificial intelligence boom. The area had suffered a “long drought” caused by low rainfall, the local water utility operator said, as a strong El Nino cycle exacerbates dry weather.

Yet weeks later, Taiki Hirokawa, 26, walked into Harukawa’s workplace – a packed Pokemon store in Tokyo’s Ikebukuro district – and stabbed her repeatedly in the neck and torso before turning the knife he was carrying on himself. Both later died in hospital. Harukawa’s gruesome murder in March at the hands of a man who...
