A day in the life

From login to release — no end-of-shift paperwork.

What the auditor receives
The record assembles itself as the operator works — no end-of-shift paperwork project.

  1. 07:00·step 01
    Shift handover

    Production lead reviews open work orders. The MMR for today's batch is already snapshotted into the WO — no Word doc to chase.

    21 CFR 211.188
  2. 07:30·step 02
    Dispense

    Operator scans the WO at the weigh booth. V5 prints the picklist, the scale streams live, every weighment is captured to the BMR.

    21 CFR 211.101
  3. 09:00·step 03
    Granulation

    Step won't unlock until dispense is signed and within tolerance. Process parameters (temp, mix time) stream from the granulator to the record.

  4. 11:00·step 04
    In-process check

    QC pulls a sample, logs the result, signs. If OOS → CAPA opens automatically and the WO holds.

    21 CFR 211.110
  5. 13:30·step 05
    Compression + coating

    Tablet press and coater write yield, defects, and PAT readings to the BMR. Scrap weighed and reconciled live.

  6. 16:00·step 06
    QC release

    QA reviews the assembled BMR — every step typed, hashed, signed. Two e-sigs (preparer + reviewer) close the batch.

    21 CFR 211.186
  7. 16:30·step 07
    BMR archived

    PDF rendered from the snapshot. Immutable. Same record an FDA investigator gets if they walk in tomorrow.

Speaking your language

The terms your auditor uses

V5's UI uses these names for pharmaceutical workspaces — no cross-industry jargon to translate.
MMR
Master Manufacturing Record — the approved, immutable recipe (21 CFR 211.186).
BMR
Batch Manufacturing Record — the live, signed reproduction of the MMR for a specific batch (211.188).
API
Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient — the molecule that does the work.
OOS
Out of Specification — a result outside acceptance criteria. Triggers an investigation.
ALCOA+
Attributable, Legible, Contemporaneous, Original, Accurate (+ Complete, Consistent, Enduring, Available).
PAT
Process Analytical Technology — real-time process measurement instead of end-batch testing.
What keeps you up at night

Sound familiar? We built this for you.

!

Master Batch Records live in Word; production records live on paper; reconciliation takes weeks.

!

Single-signature formula approvals fail 211.186 the moment they're audited.

!

Lot recall takes days — there's no forward genealogy from API lot to finished bottle.

!

Investigators flag 'data integrity' findings on every audit.

How Pharmaceutical teams use V5

The workflows you'd expect to see on day one.

Not a generic feature list — these are the specific pharmaceutical workflows V5 ships configured for, ready to run on your batches.

Master Batch Record library

Approved MBRs are immutable; every work order snapshots from an approved master rev.

Two-person dispense weighing

Preparer + independent reviewer e-sigs on every API and excipient weigh-out, per 211.186 / 211.188.

In-process QC + deviation capture

Tablet weight, hardness, dissolution checks captured live; out-of-spec = automatic deviation + hold.

DSCSA / FMD serialization & aggregation

GTIN + serial + lot + expiry encoded and aggregated parent-to-child for full pack hierarchy.

Forward / backward genealogy

API lot → bulk → bottle, in seconds. Recall scope in one query.

ALCOA+ data integrity

Every record attributable, contemporaneous, original — full audit trail with reason-for-change.

Self-Building Compliance Records

The record assembles itself as the work happens.

No paperwork project at end of shift. No reconstruction at audit time. The evidence IS the workflow.

Immutable MBR, live BMR

Approved master records snapshot into every work order. The batch record is the master — executed and signed live.

Two-signature approvals

Preparer + independent reviewer e-sigs on every approved formula, per 211.186 / 111.205.

Forward & backward genealogy

From API CoA to finished pack, in seconds. Recall scope in one query.

ALCOA+ data integrity

Every record is attributable, legible, contemporaneous, original, accurate — and complete, consistent, enduring, available.
