Automation Transforms Data Validation and Rollovers for Biopharma Operations Across Japan and Asia Pacific

The Challenge

A leading global biopharma had regional data operations spread across the Japan and Asia Pacific (JAPAC) region. Data from different systems used for forecasting and marketing operations needed continuous management and validation. As more markets came onboard, the manual tasks only increased. It took over a week every cycle just to validate and roll over data for business teams.

Manual dependency
Running SQL scripts, validating records, appending files — all of it was done manually. This slowed down every refresh cycle.
Forecasting delays
Long validation cycles meant updates to internal forecasting tools and connected reporting systems were not always on time.
Quality gaps
Human error crept in during mapping and conversion factor updates. Data mismatches would appear downstream.
Resource strain
Data stewards were spending time fixing files instead of improving how data flowed from source systems.

Our Solution

Agilisium automated the validation and rollover process end-to-end. What took days was now completed in minutes. The engagement aimed at removing every manual touchpoint, giving the team a setup that was consistent and always ready for analytics.

Automated validation‍

SQL checks and cross-validations were coded into automated workflows. Every dataset rolled over clean without manual oversight.

‍

Fast rollovers‍

Recurring datasets from regional sources were scheduled automatically. Updates to forecasting and analytics platforms now ran on time.

Data quality focus‍

Automation handled repetitive processes, allowing the team to redirect their focus toward identifying discrepancies at the source instead of downstream fixes.

Adaptive automation‍

The automation was built to support ongoing data and documentation processes, ensuring continued alignment with business updates.

Key Impact

Rapid Data Rollovers

Rollovers Rollover cycle time reduced from over a week to just a few minutes

Error-Free Data Quality

Zero data quality issues reported since implementation
