Cold Chain & Temperature Logistics
Under Good Distribution Practice, every temperature excursion (a break in the band, a sensor fault, a door left open, a genset trip) needs a recorded investigation: what happened, for how long, what stock was exposed, what the stability data says, and the disposition (release, quarantine or destroy) with a named sign-off. Today this runs on email, a spreadsheet and a folder, so investigations are slow, inconsistent and incomplete, dispositions are made informally, and when an auditor or principal asks for the excursion history it is a scramble across inboxes. A single missing or weak excursion record can lose a pharma contract.
Who has it
Pharma and vaccine operators at the core, as the regulated build, and the quality side of cold-storage operators, where a chamber break needs a recorded disposition.
What we build
A structured excursion-to-disposition workflow: the excursion is logged against the consignment or chamber with its duration and exposure, the investigation and impact assessment are captured to a template, the corrective and preventive action (CAPA) is tracked to closure, and the disposition is recorded with a named sign-off and a full audit trail. The history is retrievable in seconds for an audit or a principal.
What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off
The reliable spine
The workflow is non-AI: the excursion logged against the consignment or chamber with its duration and exposure, the investigation and impact-assessment template, the CAPA tracked to closure, and the disposition recorded with a named sign-off and a full audit trail.
Where AI helps
AI does only bounded drafting on the operator's own records, such as proposing a first-draft investigation summary from the logged excursion data for a person to edit. It never decides the disposition, closes a CAPA or signs the record.
Who signs off
A named quality owner decides every disposition (release, quarantine or destroy) and signs the excursion record and CAPA closure.
What changes day to day
Every excursion has a recorded, consistent investigation and a named disposition; CAPA closes instead of drifting; the excursion history is audit-ready in seconds; the operator can prove it managed every break, which is the credential the principal is buying.
Illustrative outcome
Excursion investigations closed on time and consistently; audit-ready history that protects contracts.
