Every success starts with a dream…
November 14, 2016 a Charismatic day, when we saw a dream to make a No. 1 brand of poly pill in Pakistan’s antihypertensive market.
Hypertension is a multifaceted disease and despite of all the latest clinical research and treatment options it is still a major cause of cardiovascular diseases worldwide. The National Health Survey of Pakistan estimated
that only 12.5% of hypertension cases were adequately controlled.
Keeping in view above mentioned alarming facts and the cut-throat competition across markets it is vital to create charismatic products to fulfill the patient and market needs.
The birth of Triforge was a unique phenomenon which build our team confidence with Customer satisfaction.
It is the brand with Charismatic benefits which provides effective blood pressure control with compliance and affordability. This charismatic differentiation makes Triforge “Pakistan’s 1st ever Triopolypill with Charismatic Trinity”.• Charisma of Power• Charisma of Compliance • Charisma of AffordabilityTriforge bring a paradigm shift and changed customer’s perception
regarding poly pill concept because of charismatic benefits and enjoying 1st position in Trio poly pill market. Just in 150 Days Triforge became a well trusted brand in trio poly pill antihypertensive market of Pakistan. According to latest IMS data, 100,000 patients are getting benefits of its charismatic features.

We all have career aspirations to achieve; yet many of us do not hold ourselves accountable enough to build the right foundation to achieve our aspirations. It’s not only because people need structure and guidance to achieve their goals and aspirations but also the wisdom to discover and unleash their passionate pursuits and unique talent.
Our Business & Aspirations session is one such platform to exchange such ideas, developing plans and achievements at all levels.
Last Town Hall Meeting was arranged in Faletti’s Hotel, Lahore where all the Managers & above from Head Office & Plant participated in the session to
share the future objectives division wise. Management of Highnoon has always emphasized on team building activities. Highlight of this Meeting was appearance of Ms. Muniba Mazari. She is known as the Iron-Lady & One of the true faces of Pakistan. It was privileged that she participated in our Business & Aspirations session of last quarter. She
is really a source of inspiration for all of us in many ways. She shared her life story with a strength that limitations are just an illusion in our minds and nothing in this world can stop us from achieving our goals if we are devoted to it.

An Insight of the Highnoon Laboratories Limited
Transition to ISO 9001-2015May 4, 2017 Thursday will be remembered as an amazing day in Highnoon successful journey when Highnoon Laboratories shifted to ISO 9001:2015 QMS. In April, 2017 Highnoon Team was in the preparation of 1st
Surveillance Audit of ISO 9001:2008 which was planned on 4th May, 2017. Meanwhile a mail received from the SGS representative and some instructions were shared internationally that all clients whose RCA & Surveillance audits are due in 2017 they must go for an early transition with emphasis that the initial leverage of early RCA in 2018 has been cancelled. This news was taken
as a challenge by the top management and the team.Major challenges in front of the Highnoon Team were;
• Determination of Organizational Gaps with respect to new requirements of ISO 9001:2015
• Understanding the Context of the Organization
• Training of the Staff• Revision of Quality Manuals• Implementation of Risk
Management System• Internal Audits to check the
compliance of new requirements
• Management ReviewAction Plan was defined against all these challenges and changes implemented accordingly. By the grace of Almighty Allah a successful audit was held with just a single Minor Non-Conformance (NC) and a certificate of ISO 9001:2015 was issued. Transition to ISO 9001:2015 was not that simple but the timely decision of the top management and commitment from each individual made that journey simple and smooth in a shortest period of time. The credit goes to the team for efforts and the top management to delegate the authority and motivating team towards
a common goal.
CONGRATULATIONS & WELL DONE!
Keep the spirit high for continuous growth of the business and Quality.
Ms. Roshaneh Zafar – MD – Kashf Foundation
Its been almost two years since we launched women forum to strengthen our female employees and to boost their confidence helping them to
be equally important pillar of the Organization. We feel proud to have female Executives in leading roles of various departmental functions of the Company.
This time this was none other than Ms. Roshane Zafar MD, Kashaf Foundation who chaired the Women Forum meeting. Ms. Roshaneh Zafar is a graduate of the Wharton Business School, University of Pennsylvania, USA and also holds a Masters degree in Development Economics from Yale University, USA. She has been the recipient of many international and national awards, including Tamgha-i-Imtiaz, one of Pakistan’s highest civilian awards. She is also on the board of other
not-for profit organizations including Sahil, Women’s World Banking and Karvaan Krafts, and Director on the Board of Engro Foods.
She explained how women themselves are reluctant to see beyond glass ceiling. She said glass ceiling is a delicate barrier yet so strong that it prevents women from moving up the corporate hierarchy due to their lack of confidence and being unaware of their inner potential. However she appreciated Highnoon’s contribution towards women development by providing them opportunities to perform their duties at the level of senior management positions in various departments. She stressed for
the need of women self actualization and emphasized that there is no force that can make a women feel inferior without her consent.
She encouraged the participants to stand up, stand out and put their best to rise and shine with Rising Highnoon.

Afghanistan...on Road of Success
1. Never give me work in the morning. Always wait until 5:00 and then bring it to me. The challenge of a deadline is always refreshing.
2. Always leave without telling anyone where you’re going. It gives me a chance to be creative when someone asks where you are.
3. If you give me more than one job to do, don’t tell me which is the priority. Let me guess.
4. Do your best to keep me late. I like the office and really have nowhere
to go or anything to do.
5. If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret. Leaks like that could get me a promotion.
6. If you don’t like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be popular in conversations.
7. If you have special instructions for a job, don’t write them down.
In fact, save them until the job is almost done.
