For many years, pharmaceutical companies shipping temperature-sensitive goods have relied on temperature loggers to monitor the condition of in-transit products. These logging devices have become cheap, reliable and ubiquitous, but they fall short of a true cold chain monitoring platform. But if your organization relies solely on these devices for cold chain visibility and monitoring, you are living in the past.
In his recent Pharmaceutical Executive op ed, Tive shares his perspective on the benefits and USB temperature data logger limitations in a pharma supply chain. While acknowledging their usefulness as a low-cost temperature monitoring solution, Rob goes on to discuss how new IoT technologies are changing the game when it comes to cold chain management.
