The ODIN technologies Pharmaceutical and Life Sciences COE brings a unique combination of specific industry experience and expertise with the world’s leading RFID deployment, design and testing team.

We are the only company to guarantee 99.9% read accuracy in a vendor-neutral environment. This guarantee is based on hundreds of systems designed and deployed and millions of tags read - not a small pilot or lab set-up.

ODIN’s Pharma COE has received industry acclaim from popular press to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its work in the space. This hard-earned success comes from having the author of the EPC Protocol, plus founding members of EPC’s Healthcare and Life Sciences Business Action Group (HLS BAG) and many leading pharmaceutical companies as clients.

ODIN’s Pharma COE can create strategy and actionable steps to implement that strategy for a fraction of what monolithic consultantcies charge for a strategy or ROI analysis. Benefits of this approach include:

* Compliance with ePedigree and customer mandates
* Automated drug authentication
* Anti-counterfeit protection
* Prosecution and detailed evidence chain
* Automated recognition of out-of-date stock, or wholesaler speculation
* Limiting liability from product recalls
* Increased supply chain visibility
* Automated documentation and reduced handling time
* Proof of individual delivery and receipt
* Pricing verification and consistency

ODIN technologies has been hired by the major pharmaceutical suppliers, and key partners in the space including most of the large consulting companies.

Only ODIN’s lab has performed a scientific-based study on the differences between HF and UHF in the Pharmaceutical supply chain, resulting in dozens of press and industry citations.

• Multiple-location Systems and Management: Track products and medication from the pharmacy, to the nursing unit, and finally to the patient bedside.
• PC-based and HL7 Compliant Software: Seamlessly integrates with existing medication dispensing, supply management systems, and hospital IT infrastructure.
• ePedigree Compliant: RFID technology assures serialization capability to meet unit-level electronic tracking and tracing requirement.
• Supply Chain Support: RFID technology is the ultimate solution for anti-counterfeiting, anti-diversion, and brand management.
• EPC Gen2 Passive UHF Tags and Labels: A low-cost technology with global standards.

The Intelliguard System:

1. Pharmacy Reader: Touch screen interface; small, table-top design eliminates item-level scanning or counting by reading RFID tags of tote or container.
2. Automated Dispensing Cabinet (ADC): Touch screen interface; 4-8 single and double drawer configurations with ambient and refrigerated options.
3. Patient Bedside Reader: Touch screen interface; medication tray and handheld reader for patient ID bands (barcode or RFID).
4. Administrator Tools: Access to user-friendly and real-time management reports.

The use of RFID in the Pharmaceutical supply chain, Medical Device industry and Hospital and Healthcare facilities has the potential to address multiple concerns regarding product and patient safety while at the same time improving operational efficiencies. These industries are complex and subject to significant government regulation. RFID is increasingly viewed as a technology that can play a critical role in attending to the many pressures placed on the enterprises that participate in Pharmaceuticals, Healthcare and Life Sciences around the globe.

There are many opportunities for ROI in the Pharmaceutical & Healthcare industries:

• Electronic Pedigree
• Patient Safety
• Deter Counterfeiting and Diversion
• Controlled Substance Monitoring
• Quarantine Assurance
• Equipment Cleaning & Maintenance
• Equipment Utilization
• Smart Recall
• Brand / Channel Protection
• Inventory Visibility

An RFID Infrastructure for Pharmaceuticals, Healthcare and Life Sciences - The use of RFID in the drug and medical equipment supply chains from manufacturing to pharmacies and patient care facilities creates many requirements for an expandable, sustainable infrastructure. The RFID technology choices must work for closed-loop, open-loop and cross-enterprise data collection and exchange involving many processes and potentially many companies. These processes incorporate both fixed/portal type readers and handheld/mobile readers to facilitate tag data capture at many locations. And, most companies envision incremental use of RFID over time as they expand the number of tracking locations, deployed readers and consuming applications across their enterprises. The Reva Systems Tag Acquisition Processor (TAP) delivers the scalable infrastructure platform that pharmaceutical and healthcare enterprises can depend on to generate value now and in the future.

The Reva TAP supports most major reader brands and models with simple point-and-click configuration. The Reva solution provides a graphical user interface that allows implementers to define physical facility layouts, place fixed readers, indicate benchmark reference tags for coordinating and dynamically determining mobile reader locations, create business location representations and once deployed - remotely manage and monitor facility level RFID networks. Configuration tasks can also be automated to facilitate rapid rollouts for deployments that incorporate 100's of facilities.
