In 2020, the world was amid a pandemic, and at its height.
Throughout this period, many companies in the pharmaceutical industry struggled to meet the growing demand for test kits.
One company that was soon to become a client was struggling to overcome the issues required to increase production fourfold to match their significant increase in demand.
They thought they had found a solution, a manufacturer who would make some minor changes to their molding machine.
This process was intended to make a better test tube for their COVID-19 testing kits while meeting the increase in demand.
Unfortunately, following the proposed changes, the new tubes were of a different size. They required a changeover and redesign of the production lines to accommodate the tubes in the filling process.
This process typically requires months, but they didn’t have months.
This is when the company was to become our client. They reached out to Sonic Packaging for a solution to their time-sensitive, urgent problem.
We approached this the same way we approach every project, with a Sonic Session. This entails analyzing potential customers’ challenges, pain points, and goals.
Following the Sonic Session, we got to work, leveraging our vast network of vendors to provide the best solution for our client.
We completed this changeover and redesign of the production line in weeks, as opposed to months.
We reduced supply chain complexity while identifying and solving labeling, shipping, quality, and regulatory issues.
We put our focus on our relationships, with both clients and vendors, to best serve our customers.
As a result, our client increased its capacity from 500,000/week to 2,000,000+/week.
