Transformation
Moderna is a slight deviation from our DX methodology but still finds space on our list for good reasons. The firm is an exception from the biotech industry as it evolved its digital systems from the ground up and applied the software mindset to its business. Moderna has created and applied algorithms, data systems, cloud and robotics-enabled automation from pre-clinical research to its manufacturing capabilities at the Moderna Technology Center.
The fundamental building blocks of the transformation:
- Cloud enablement: Scientists use complex data sets and cloud tech to support computational power, agility and cost-efficiency.
- Integrated: Create real-time syncs across multiple systems of operations.
- Smart devices and AI: Smart devices provide scientists with real-time data and help them make informed decisions ranging from research, manufacturing to retail and development(R&D). AI applies in the running of complex programs and the provision of accurate sequencing data and insights.
