Advanco Acquires Vantage Consulting Group
by 
Advanco, established as a global pharmaceutical and life sciences track and trace solutions provider, has announced the acquisition of manufacturing automation specialist Vantage Consulting Group. The company will continue to be called advanco, with an enlarged client portfolio of over 100 blue chip clients. This means it is now the world’s largest independent provider of serialization solutions for the pharmaceutical and life sciences sector.
The acquisition enables advanco to combine its established ARC platform solution for regulated track and trace with Vantage’s full automation, design, implementation, and validation engineering services. The acquisition of Vantage, which has been established for 25 years, means advanco can now additionally provide integrated design, implementation, and validation engineering services covering the entire supply chain. This includes everything from raw material handling right through to the distribution and warehouse stage, all within the latest, geographically specific regulatory requirements.
Alf Goebel, CEO of advanco, said: “Advanco’s acquisition of Vantage is a strategic move, designed to offer clients a sophisticated suite of products and services across the full spectrum of the supply chain. Advanco’s established ARC platform, and software expertise, is now fully bolstered by the design, implementation, and validation expertise offered by the team from Vantage.
John Jordon, President of Vantage, said: “Vantage prides itself on designing and implementing complex manufacturing and automation solutions, delivered in a way that fosters trust, transparency, and honesty with every client in every transaction. Advanco has an identical pedigree and shares a track record of client excellence across all that it does. We are therefore looking to the future with excitement as we continue to provide the entire supply chain with all that it needs for future success.”
Alf Goebel will remain as CEO of advanco, while John Jordon, President of Vantage, will join the advanco leadership team. Vantage’s staff will be incorporated into advanco’s operations.
