News Release
Werum and Systec & Solutions offer a new integrated
MES/HMI solution for enhanced usability on the shop floor
New PAS-X application specifically designed for Systec & Solutions output devices /
HMIs with hardware components pre-configured for PAS-X MES
Parsippany, New Jersey/USA, May 13, 2015 – At this year’s PAS-X User Group Meeting in
Parsippany, New Jersey/USA, Werum IT Solutions – the market-leading provider of
Manufacturing IT Solutions and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) for the
pharmaceutical industry – and Systec & Solutions, a specialized manufacturer of GMP IT
hardware solutions for the pharmaceutical industry, presented a new, jointly developed
approach for enhanced usability in controlling pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical
production processes on the shop floor.
Customers who want to introduce Werum‘s PAS-X MES solution will now also have access
to a range of specifically tailored Systec & Solutions HMI hardware. “Such compatible
components allow for a more reliable and accelerated MES introduction, giving customers a
clear advantage over third-party components that require various adjustments and tests to
work together optimally,” says Rüdiger Schlierenkämper, CEO, Werum IT Solutions GmbH.
“Our objective is to simplify the automation of production processes for our pharma
customers while providing them with standard solutions for ergonomic and safe operation by
design.”
“Another advantage for Werum and Systec & Solutions customers,” adds Andreas König,
Managing Director at Systec & Solutions GmbH, “is that the Systec & Solutions HMI
hardware has pre-configured components with additional functions such as hardware buttons
to switch between different PAS-X applications. This will help make the work of shop floor
operators more reliable, as well as faster and easier. ” The mobile stainless steel trolleys of
Systec & Solutions are battery-powered so that the HMI can be used together with the PASX MES software wherever required by the process.

The development of effective joint solutions is based on the long-term pharma and biotech
experience of both Werum and Systec & Solutions. “Customers who want to use the Systec
& Solutions hardware while also operating the PAS-X MES can be assured of a fine-tuned
and perfectly compatible solution,” says Schlierenkämper. Adds König, “By combining the
innovative power of two premium suppliers, we are well positioned to boost forward-looking
improvements for our customers, and look forward to continuing our work together to develop
new ideas for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical production.”
