In 2023, mandatory labeling of dietary supplements is introduced on the territory of Russia. According to the requirements of the law, pharmaceutical manufacturers, importers and sellers must transfer all information about such products to the state system for monitoring goods (GIS MT). This will avoid counterfeiting when selling biologically active additives and displace illegal products from the market.

Understanding the need to work on the introduced rules, the company began early preparation for the transition to digital labeling. Previously, the company has already introduced the Utrace HUB cloud track & trace system for managing drug serialization. The current Utrace HUB loop has been expanded with functionality for dietary supplements.

With the help of the implemented solution, ITF LLC will be able to order over a million codes annually, which will fully provide all the production facilities of the pharmaceutical company.

As part of the project, Utrace specialists deployed the necessary functionality, configured Utrace HUB integration with the RUFE WMS system and the ERP development ERP system '1C'. In addition, the vendor team provided validation of the resulting GMP solution. As a result, the customer received a stable track & trace solution independent of foreign suppliers.

Utrace is an experienced developer with a strong expertise in the pharmaceutical industry. Colleagues understand the requirements of the industry and are ready to quickly adapt their product to all legislative changes. The Utrace team helped us launch the labeling of dietary supplements quite quickly, and by the "high season" - autumn-winter of 2023 - we will be able to fully work under the conditions introduced, "said Alina Klimkina, project manager at ITF LLC.

The transition to mandatory labeling of dietary supplements began back in 2021, when the state regulator launched an experiment. In October 2023, it will become mandatory, and by 2025 the market is waiting for piece-by-piece accounting of products. Despite the fact that this process will take some time, we recommend preparing for it now. It is important to configure and test the process before labeling becomes mandatory for all dietary supplement manufacturers, "said Vasily Savin, director of consulting at Utrace.

2022: Implementation of Track & Trace system for serialization of dietary supplements

ITF, the Russian division of Italfarmaco, has launched a project to introduce a Track & Trace system for serializing dietary supplements. This is one of the first initiatives on the market to switch to the labeling of dietary supplements. This was announced by ITF on April 21, 2022.

The Russian division of Italfarmaco is engaged in the promotion of women's health products, assisted reproductive technologies, as well as problem solving. osteoporosis

The L4 Utrace Hub cloud solution for serialization of medicines has been introduced in ITF. During the project, Utrace Hub was also integrated with the 3PL WMS system of the ORFE operator, the 1C ERP solution and the global Track & Trace system in Italfarmaco. As of April 22, 2022, Utrace Hub automatically processes data on goods and sends messages to the IS MDLP in full compliance with the current requirements of the law.

As part of the development of the project, it was decided to connect the labeling of dietary supplements to the current Utrace Hub circuit. The experiment on the labeling of dietary supplements started in August 2021 and will last until February 28, 2023. Products that have a certificate of state registration fall under its effect. Thus, thanks to Data Matrix codes, buyers will be able to verify the authenticity of products and distinguish dietary supplements from food industry products masquerading as them. After the end of the experiment, serialization of biologically active additives will become mandatory.

Utrace plans to deploy a dietary supplement labeling system for ITFs by September 2022. During the project, integration with the current IT landscape of the company will be configured, as well as preparation for validation according to the GAMP 5 standard.

The process of choosing a partner was influenced by our previous experience with Utrace: the Track & Trace implementation project for the drug system was implemented in just 7.5 months, and the solution in 2021-2022 works without failures and problems. In addition, the Utrace Hub can be quickly scaled to updated product categories and set up all the necessary integrations. Therefore, we decided to continue our cooperation, commented Alina Klimkina, logistics manager of ITF.

Those companies that begin preparation in advance and have time to debug all processes before the start of mandatory labeling will be able to quickly and painlessly adapt the business to the updated requirements of the legislation, comments Konstantin Ivanov, CEO of Utrace.
