Proactive Pharma Risk Management: Mastering the 6M Framework

Discover how teams shift from reactive firefighting to proactive problem-solving with Presto PDCA

Pharmaceutical organizations operate in one of the most regulated and high-stakes industries. To stay ahead of production challenges, compliance requirements, and quality targets, you need more than just quick fixes-you need a proactive approach. In this recently hosted webinar, we explore the 6M risk management discipline (Manpower, Methods, Machines, Materials, Measurement, and Mother Nature) and demonstrate how it can be seamlessly integrated into daily operations using Presto PDCA. Below, you'll find the entire 45-minute session split into two parts, featuring expert insights and a hands-on demo.
