The invention relates to a method and system wherein an analysis system (6) measures derivative process parameters (7) from the derivative physical production process, wherein the precursor charge (3) is produced at a precursor production facility (8) at least 50 km distant from the physical production facility (2) through a precursor production process based on applied precursor production settings (9), wherein the precursor charge (3) is transported to the physical production facility (2), wherein the analysis system (6) measures precursor process parameters (11) from the precursor production process and precursor product parameters (12) from the precursor charge (3), wherein the analysis system (6) enters the applied derivative process settings (4), the measured derivative process parameters (7), the applied precursor production settings (9), the measured precursor process parameters (11), the measured precursor product parameters (12) as input to a process model (13), which process model (13) describes a computational relationship between derivative process settings, derivative process parameters, precursor production settings, precursor process parameters and precursor product parameters, to obtain updated derivative process settings (15).
