B-Measured
Real-time utility monitoring for sustainability
Real-time utility monitoring at cycle level to compare programs, identify optimization potential and move beyond worst-case settings. B-Measured turns resource data into actionable decisions that reduce costs and support sustainability reporting.
Why resource visibility matters
Sustainability targets and cost pressure are increasing across pharmaceutical manufacturing. Cleaning and sterilization systems consume significant amounts of water, steam, electricity, compressed air and chemicals. Yet in many facilities, this consumption is not measured at equipment or cycle level.
As a result, the same conservative “worst case” cycle is often applied to every load. Without clear data, it is difficult to understand true operating cost, compare programs or identify where optimization is possible. Improving resource efficiency starts with measurement.
Cycle-level monitoring and comparison
B-Measured provides real-time monitoring of utility consumption directly at machine level. It records and visualizes resource use per batch and over time, linking consumption data to individual programs.
This enables direct comparison between cycles. For example, sterilizer pre-conditioning or cooling phases can be reviewed and adjusted where not required, and extended drying steps used for plastic parts in washers can be reduced for metal loads.
Live consumption values and historical trend analysis support structured evaluation of how different programs impact utilities and emissions. CO₂ emissions can also be calculated based on recorded consumption data, supporting sustainability reporting.
Data-driven optimization
By making resource consumption transparent and comparable, B-Measured provides actionable information to adapt cycles to actual load requirements rather than defaulting to worst case settings.
This allows teams to prioritize optimization efforts, reduce unnecessary utility use and support sustainability objectives while maintaining validated process control.
