Zydus: Replacing OSI-PI across three sites
A legacy historian spanning 3 sites, 12 lines and 86 machines needed costly integrators for every dashboard and report, and audits meant manual data pulls.
Factorian replaced it in under three weeks, with validated data capture, self-service reports across 5,000+ tags and no-code live dashboards.
Estimated 70–90% lower integrator fees and 30–50% lower TCO, faster batch release and always-on audit readiness.
Voyager Therapeutics: One source of truth for bioreactor data
Bioreactors from different vendors would not connect, scientists could not watch runs remotely, and an AWS migration was dropped over connectivity problems.
An on-premise 3-node Factorian cluster connected the legacy bioreactors and delivered browser dashboards over LAN and VPN.
Centralized bioprocess data, 25% of scientists’ research time reclaimed, real-time alerts and secure data exchange with partners.
OcyonBio: A central nervous system for plant data
Data was trapped in RS232 devices, analytical instruments that only produced PDF results, and SCADA-controlled equipment.
Factorian became the middleware layer, ingesting serial, OPC and parsed PDF data and feeding LIMS, MES and in-house AI platforms in real time.
No more manual data silos, real-time dashboards for faster deviation response, and a time-series archive ready for predictive models.
Shilpa Biologicals: Live process data, shared with sponsors
R&D and GMP data was captured by hand, GMP suites lacked real-time visibility, and sponsor updates needed manual extraction.
Factorian connected 150+ machines, archived data from development to commercial manufacturing and shared live data directly with sponsors.
Faster process development and scale-up, stronger sponsor trust and live monitoring of 2,000+ tags that catches deviations early.
Wockhardt: Unlocking dark data at a 30-year-old site
Islands of automation and isolated lab equipment left crucial data unrecorded, starving process teams of the datasets needed for modelling.
The Factorian gateway and turn-key services connected the legacy equipment, archived the data and fed clean streams to the data science team.
Real-time process monitoring models, an archive that preserves institutional memory, and a fast start without disrupting production.
