The pharmaceutical supply chain is undergoing dramatic changes as companies accelerate initiatives to comply with new pedigree regulations in support of improving patient safety, product integrity, supply chain security and at the same time protect product revenue streams, company image and brand.

As every participant in the pharmaceutical supply chain looks to serialize their warehousing and distribution operations, they find themselves facing several key challenges including:

* Incorporating serialized product into existing processes
* Supporting the additional data and complexities of serialization
* Establishing and maintaining serialization relationships through the distribution process
