ValGenesis Inc, and Hitachi Industry & Control Solutions, Ltd, are excited to declare a strategic alliance focused on revolutionizing Japan's life sciences sector with cutting-edge digital validation solutions. This partnership combines ValGenesis’ top-tier digital validation platform with Hitachi Industry & Control Solutions’ vast expertise and presence in Japan, enabling companies to speed up drug development, improve regulatory compliance, and achieve better patient outcomes.

Established in 2014, Hitachi Industry & Control Solutions has a rich history of promoting societal progress through its wide range of innovative technologies. Drawing from the extensive operational technology (OT)*¹ knowledge that Hitachi Industry & Control Solutions has accumulated over the years, the firm delivers solutions aimed at generating new value for clients in sectors like manufacturing and social infrastructure.

“We believe that this collaboration has made it possible to strongly promote digital transformation in life sciences companies. Hitachi Industry & Control Solutions, Ltd., in collaboration with Hitachi, Ltd., has introduced HITPHAMS, a manufacturing and quality management system for Hitachi, Ltd. MES (Manufacturing Execution System) and LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System) products for the pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing industries, to more than 100 sites to promote the digitalization of manufacturing and quality control,” said Yasuyuki Suzuki, deputy general manager and chief operational technology officer of the Industrial Solution Group at Hitachi Industry & Control Solutions, Ltd. “On the other hand, for customers, validation management has become an issue which is essential when introducing systems and equipment. ValGenesis VLMS® is a product that can digitize this customer issue, and we would like to contribute to further efficiency and quality improvement for customers through collaboration between our companies.”
