Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Біологія.Фармація conservation strategies.At the second stage of the study, pharmaceutical production processes, quality control systems, loss reduction methods and resource-saving strategies were analyzed. Research results. A six-step implementation sequence has been identified: diagnosis and goal setting; mapping and analysis of losses; development and implementation of improvements; staff training and Kaizen culture development; monitoring and corrective actions; final assessment. It has been shown that integrating Lean with digital technologies enhances quality control and flexibility.According to the case studies reviewed, quality control reliability increased by more than 50%, inventory and defects were reduced by approximately 57%, throughput increased, and work in progress decreased.Three implementation scenarios (maximum, moderately optimal, "soft") are proposed, describing the limitations and risks for companies with varying degrees of readiness.Conclusion.Lean manufacturing, enhanced by digital tools, reduces losses, inventory, and defects, speeds up processes, and improves the quality and productivity of pharmaceutical production.In the context of rising costs, stricter standards and environmental requirements, it is becoming a strategic factor of competitiveness, especially for developing countries.For the first time, a standard Lean manufacturing implementation plan has been proposed with three scenarios -"maximum", "moderate-optimal" and "soft", which allows flexible strategy selection depending on resources.The results can be applied to the implementation of Lean manufacturing in pharmaceutical enterprises, in particular The Republic Kazakhstan.
