Ergomed plc, a company focused on providing specialized services to the pharmaceutical industry, has announced PrimeVigilance’s strategic collaboration with Automation Anywhere, a leader in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and DataRobot, a leader in enterprise artificial intelligence (AI), to accelerate the company’s Intelligent Automation strategy.
 
PrimeVigilance, a division of Ergomed, is a global specialized provider of full pharmacovigilance (PV) services, and currently employs over 750 people. By empowering its clients and colleagues with the application of RPA and Machine Learning (ML), PrimeVigilance will enable clients to improve quality and consistency within safety databases, as well as productivity.
 
A successful proof of concept has been completed, and PrimeVigilance will now implement a cloud software solution to automate specific pharmacovigilance processes. The productivity gains made possible by working with Automation Anywhere and DataRobot, are expected to deliver organic growth more efficiently, with the automation of manual, repetitive processes.
 
Automation Anywhere’s cloud-based RPA on its digital workforce platform combined with DataRobot’s enterprise AI platform will bring new levels of speed and intelligence to a crucial component of the business, freeing up valuable hours for highly trained pharmacovigilance professionals to focus on value creation and problem solving that only humans can address.
 
Prince Kohli, chief technology officer at Automation Anywhere, commented, “Intelligent Automation can help to unlock valuable human capacity to focus on innovation-led projects, while reducing costs and shortening the time to market. Ergomed understands this opportunity, and we’re excited to be working with them and DataRobot to unleash the potential of Intelligent Automation to enable a better customer experience and faster time to value.”
 
This strategic partnership will be part of Ergomed’s wider strategy as it aims to transform the relationship between its people and technology. It will enhance Ergomed’s existing skills and expertise by combining human insight and knowledge with the intelligent application of technology to enhance the speed and precision of analysis and decision making.
