planeus Partners with Sakara Digital to Support Planning in Regulated Life Sciences Operations
Michigan, USA – July 2026 – planeus, a provider of next-generation Planning & Control software, today announced a partnership with Sakara Digital LLC, a Life Sciences fractional consultancy supporting pharmaceutical and biotech companies with digital transformation, systems integration, AI enablement, QMS, DMS, LMS, and GxP compliance expertise.
Founded and led by former Pfizer Digital Leaders with more than 20 years of combined experience at Pfizer, Sakara Digital brings proven pharma expertise to regulated operations where compliance, data quality, inspection readiness, and operational execution must work together.
The partnership combines Sakara Digital’s senior Life Sciences expertise with planeus’ Planning & Control platform to help organizations strengthen operational planning across manufacturing, laboratories, validation, testing, engineering, and other regulated environments.
From Digitalization to Purpose-Driven Operations
Life Sciences organizations have made significant progress in digitalizing quality, documentation, learning, manufacturing execution, laboratory operations, and frontline workflows. However, planning often remains highly manual, fragmented, or disconnected from the systems that manage execution and compliance.
In regulated operations, planning must coordinate people, equipment, capacity, materials, documentation, priorities, and compliance-related constraints. This creates a need for stronger visibility and more reliable coordination across teams and systems.
Through this partnership, planeus and Sakara Digital will support organizations seeking to move from disconnected planning toward more structured, transparent, and audit-ready operational processes.
Working Within Existing Ecosystems
planeus is designed to complement existing enterprise and operational systems by providing a Planning & Control layer that connects resources, capacity, schedules, and operational priorities.
This may include environments using QMS, DMS, LMS, LIMS, MES, ERP, no-code frontline operations platforms, digital work instruction systems, and other operational applications. Sakara Digital’s approach aligns closely with this model: working within existing systems and organizational realities to help teams turn digital strategy into compliant, practical outcomes.
Regulated teams do not need another system to replace what they already have, they need their existing systems to work together more intelligently. That is what drew me to planeus, a platform designed to complement the quality, documentation, and execution systems organizations have already invested in.
Amie Harpe, Founder of Sakara Digital
Many regulated organizations have strong systems for quality, documentation, learning, and execution, while planning remains fragmented. Together with Sakara Digital, we can better support Life Sciences teams that need planning to connect with the systems, processes, and compliance expectations already in place.
