Knowledge Management in the Pharmaceutical Industry : Enhancing Research, Development and Manufacturing Performance
The Pharmaceutical Industry has been undergoing a major transformation since the heady days of 'big pharma' in the 1970s and 80s.Patent expiry, the rise of generics, and the decline of the blockbuster drug have all changed the landscape over the last 10-15 years.It's an environment where products can take 10 years or more to come to market, billions are spent on research and development, jobs are being shed in the western pharma homelands and regulators and the public are more demanding than ever.So what part is Knowledge Management playing and going to play in this vital international industry?Knowledge Management (KM) has many facets from providing comprehensive knowledge bases for workers, through the sharing of advice and problem solving, to providing an environment for innovation and change.This book, focusing on research and development, and manufacturing-based companies, explores how a range of techniques and approaches have been applied in the unique environment of the Pharmaceutical Industry, and examine how it can help the industry in the 21st century.Whilst the book is centered on the Pharmaceutical Industry, its objective will be to discuss and demonstrate how Knowledge Management can be applied in a variety of environments, and with a range of cultural issues.KM practitioners, and potential practitioners, both within and outside the Pharmaceutical Industry, will be able to gain valuable guidance and advice from both the examples of good practice and the lessons learned by the authors and contributors.

What types of costs include manufacturing materials and manufacturing wages?
The types of costs that include manufacturing materials and manufacturing wages are known as direct costs. Direct costs are expenses that can be specifically attributed to the production of goods or services. Manufacturing materials refer to the raw materials and components used in the production process, while manufacturing wages include the labor costs associated with the production workers directly involved in the manufacturing process. These costs are directly tied to the production of goods and are essential for calculating the total cost of production.

What is the difference between group manufacturing and workshop manufacturing?
Group manufacturing involves the production of goods in large quantities using specialized machinery and assembly lines, with a focus on efficiency and mass production. This method is commonly used in industries such as automotive and electronics. On the other hand, workshop manufacturing involves the production of goods in smaller quantities using more flexible and versatile equipment, with a focus on customization and craftsmanship. This method is commonly used in industries such as furniture making and artisanal products. Overall, the main difference lies in the scale of production and the level of specialization in the manufacturing process.
-
Is this a manufacturing defect?
Without more information about the specific issue or product in question, it is difficult to determine if it is a manufacturing defect. Manufacturing defects can occur during the production process and result in a product not meeting quality standards. Common signs of a manufacturing defect include irregularities in the product's design, materials, or construction. If you suspect a manufacturing defect, it is best to contact the manufacturer or retailer for further assistance.

What is the Manufacturing Belt?
The Manufacturing Belt, also known as the Rust Belt, is a region in the northeastern and midwestern United States that was once a major center for manufacturing and industry. It includes states such as Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, and Illinois, among others. The region became known as the Rust Belt due to the decline of its manufacturing industry, which led to economic hardship and population loss in many cities. The Manufacturing Belt played a significant role in the industrialization of the United States and the growth of its economy, but has faced challenges in recent decades due to globalization and technological changes.

How is Blu-ray manufacturing done?
Blu-ray manufacturing involves several key steps. First, a glass master containing the data is created using a laser beam. This master is then used to create a stamper, which is used to press the data onto a polycarbonate disc. The disc is then coated with a reflective layer, followed by a protective layer. Finally, the disc is printed with any necessary artwork and packaging before being packaged and shipped for distribution.
