Core expertise
Pharmaceutical production systems
ISA-95 architecture for pharmaceutical plants with clear data boundaries. Scope spans EMS, SCADA, MES, electronic batch records (eBR) and integration up to ERP, preserving batch context, timestamps and data ownership end to end.
GMP compliance and data integrity
Audit trail, access control and review-evidence frameworks built to ALCOA+. Systems are designed to satisfy 21 CFR Part 11 and EU GMP Annex 11 at the same time, with inspection-ready evidence rather than documentation that only looks correct.
CSV and validation
GAMP 5 risk-based, critical-thinking validation: boundary definition, risk assessment, IQ/OQ/PQ and traceability — enough evidence for the real risk, no redundant paperwork.
Pharma 4.0 and digital transformation
Readiness assessment before investing in AI, Digital Twin and IIoT. ROI always accounts for compliance, operations and system lifecycle cost. OT cybersecurity per IEC 62443 is designed in from the start.
Credentials
BEng in Automation and Control Engineering, Industrial University of Ho Chi Minh City (IUH), 2014. Completed professional training certificates in GAMP 5, 21 CFR Part 11, EU GMP Annex 11, ALCOA+ data integrity, FDA Computer Software Assurance (CSA), and IEC 62443 OT cybersecurity.
