Transforming IDMP Adoption with Knowledge Graphs
In today’s connected world, using established standards to identify medicine globally just makes sense. The Identification of Medicinal Products (IDMP) standards, maintained by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), are a strict safety framework used around the world to identify the drugs in medicinal products. These standards ensure safe, error-free medicine for consumers and consistent, supply-chain-wide drug information for pharmaceutical organizations — but the data is siloed in different systems, formats, and structures with little integration, making IDMP compliance a challenge. Additionally, adoption is hindered by differences in interpretation of the standards. Knowledge graphs are transformational technology that break down data silos and provide an integrated, interoperable view of IDMP information. Pharmaceutical manufacturers can deploy knowledge graphs for a speedy, scalable solution that makes all IDMP data completely accessible.
