Periodic document reviewevery SOP gets re-read, every cycle.
Per-document review cadence with named owner and email/Slack reminders. The review screen presents diff vs last version, training-acknowledgement coverage and any CAPAs that touched the document. Past due? V5 surfaces it on the QA dashboard and (optionally) blocks the kiosk operations governed by it until reviewed.
What changes once Periodic document review is live.
Indicative ranges from V5 pilot deployments. Your numbers will land near these once the workflow is operator-led and e-signed at the step.
What changes the day you switch this on.
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.
Soft warnings operators can dismiss — and do.
Cadence per document
Diff + impact in one pane
Two-sig review e-sig
Optional hard block
What you actually get
Operator-led, e-signed, immutable. Engineered for regulated manufacturers — not retrofitted.
Cadence per document
Annual, biennial, every 3 years — set per category or per document.
Diff + impact in one pane
Reviewer sees changes since last review, who has acknowledged the current version, and which CAPAs touched it.
Two-sig review e-sig
Author + independent reviewer, captured with meaning per 21 CFR 11.50.
Optional hard block
For critical SOPs, past-due review can lock the related kiosk operation until a reviewer signs.
Curious how this lands in your environment?
Where AI actually earns its place.
AI prepares the reviewer's pane before they sit down — surfacing exactly what changed and what's still open — so the periodic review is a real re-read, not a rubber stamp.
- 01
Change-impact summary for the reviewer
AI reads the diff since the last version and writes a short summary of what actually changed — a tolerance, a step order, a signature point — instead of leaving the reviewer to spot it in redlines.
- 02
Acknowledgement and CAPA cross-check
Before the review, AI checks training-acknowledgement coverage for the current version and flags any linked CAPA that touched the document since the last cycle, putting both in front of the reviewer in one pane.
- 03
Overdue-review triage
On the QA dashboard, AI ranks past-due documents by whether they gate a kiosk operation, so the SOP that would block production gets a reviewer's attention before a lower-risk work instruction.
AI never approves a document review and never removes a kiosk hard-block — the two-signature review, author plus independent reviewer, is the only thing that closes the cycle.
One operator action — a complete, signed record.
What it leaves behind
- Per-document cadence
- Diff + ack coverage + linked CAPAs
- Two-person e-sig
- Optional kiosk hard-block

The rest of the platform this plugs into.
V5 isn't a bolt-on. Every module shares the same data, the same audit trail, the same operator. Pick where to look next.
MES
Operator-led execution: scan-gated dispense, step-by-step kiosk, equipment + scale integration, live yield. Built for regulated process & discrete manufacturing.
WMS
Receiving, putaway, transfers, cycle counts, picks, pack & ship — all lot-aware, bin-accurate, FEFO/FIFO-enforced and barcode-driven.
QMS
Built-in QMS: deviations, CAPA, supplier scorecards, in-process AQL, release-by-exception. Aligned with 21 CFR 211/820, ISO 13485 and 111.
