Calibrationoverdue gauges can't write to the batch record. Full stop.

Calibration is not a spreadsheet exercise. V5 keeps a register of every gauge, scale, probe and instrument; tracks calibration intervals; stores the vendor calibration cert with as-found / as-left readings; and enforces the rule that matters — an out-of-cal device is blocked from writing to any regulated record. Not warned. Blocked.

What changes the day you switch this on.

Before V5
  • Manual, paper-driven, and only audited after the fact.
  • Tribal knowledge in spreadsheets and shared drives.
  • Errors caught at month-end — too late to fix the batch.
  • Different teams keep their own version of the truth.
With V5
  • Calibration register with vendor certs
  • Overdue = blocked, not warned
  • As-found / as-left captured
  • Daily brief + .ics calendar feed

What you actually get

Operator-led, e-signed, immutable. Engineered for regulated manufacturers — not retrofitted.

Calibration register with vendor certs

Every device carries calibration_at, due_at, tolerance, calibration vendor and a PDF of the cert. Photo of the sticker optional but encouraged.

Overdue = blocked, not warned

An out-of-cal scale, gauge or instrument refuses to write to a regulated record (dispense, in-process check, lab result). The operator sees why, and the asset owner gets paged.

As-found / as-left captured

Vendor cert intake captures both readings so a drift trend is visible per device — not just a green/red status.

Daily brief + .ics calendar feed

Due-within-7 and overdue surface on the daily brief; subscribe to the .ics calendar feed in your maintenance tech's Outlook.

What this leaves behind

One operator action — a complete, signed record.

What it leaves behind

  • Out-of-cal device blocks regulated writes
  • Vendor cert PDF on every calibration
  • As-found / as-left drift trend per device
  • .ics calendar feed for maintenance
