ERP System Development & Integration

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is the nerve center of modern operations. In regulated environments such as diagnostics or biotech, it’s not just about efficiency; it’s about traceability, audit readiness, and seamless data integration.

We help you:

  • Identify the right ERP system for your size, structure, and regulatory profile
  • Customize integrations with QA/QC, material handling, inventory control, and logistics
  • Design workflows that enable real-time data visibility and compliance tracking
  • Develop SOPs and documentation to support validation and long-term scalability

Our consultants have led successful ERP implementations across diagnostics, biotech, and IVD manufacturing environments, ensuring your systems are built to support you, not constrain you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is selecting the right ERP system important in life sciences?

Life sciences companies operate under complex regulatory frameworks and tight quality standards. An ERP system ensures that manufacturing, QA/QC, inventory, and compliance data are centralized and traceable. The right system minimizes risk, supports faster decision-making, and improves cross-functional alignment.

How can lean principles be applied to biotech operations?

Lean manufacturing in life sciences focuses on reducing waste, improving process flow, and optimizing human and material resources. Zilyc helps companies apply tools like kaizen events, root cause analysis (RCA), and 5S to create sustainable operational improvements.

What’s the timeline for implementing operational changes or ERP systems?

Depending on your company size and system complexity, ERP implementations may take 3–6 months, while broader operational changes (like restructuring supply chain or implementing new KPIs) can take 6–12 months. Zilyc supports both rapid-impact initiatives and long-term transformation programs.
