• MedDRA

It is planned to go live by end of Q3 / 2012.

Go-life with the successfully upgraded Argus safety™ 4.2 system at Helsinn Pharmaceuticals. VOEGELIN system engineering was responsible for all server installations, technical application upgrades as well as for the necessary validation documentation.

The project has been accomplished within timeline and budget.

Successful upgrade to MedDRA 13.0 on Argus safety™ 4.1 and automatic recoding of all existing case data to the new MedDRA version for a international pharmaceutical company.

Successful implementation and go-live of vaccine product & license data  configuration into Novartis Argus safety™ 4.2 drug safety system. The project has been completed in time and budget.

VOEGELIN system engineering has provided the product & license configuration framework to automate almost all configuration tasks for this project.

Successful installation of MedDRA 12 on Argus safety™ 4.1 and automatic recoding of all existing case data to the new MedDRA version for a international pharmaceutical company.

Start of a vaccine product & license data and legacy case migration project.The source data is stored into a Argus safety™ 2.9 database and has to be migrated into Novartis Argus safety™ 4.2. The project consists of two major project steps:

1. Configuration data (product & licence, LM_* etc) clean-up, configuration and migration
2. Complete legacy case data migration

This project runs in a validated environment and the go live is planned to be end of June 2009.

VOEGELIN system engineering provides the migration framework to automate almost all migration and configuration tasks for this project.
