Sanofi MSAT Transformation

Over the past few years, Sanofi has launched an ambitious digital transformation program of its industrial processes, particularly within the MSAT and Engineering teams.

Its progressive global rollout supports the performance and operational excellence ambitions of each industrial entity.

iCapture project is also part of a broader digital transformation initiative, in synergy with other strategic programs such as SimplY and smart factory projects. Together, these programs aim to build a connected, predictive, and resilient industrial infrastructure.
