During our missions, we are often exchanging with our industrial clients on
the appropriateness of using a BMS to set up a monitoring system meeting
the GMP requirements 21CFRPart11 .
Is it enough to put up a continuous measurement system to meet its
obligations? If necessary to comply with regulatory requirements in the
pharmaceutical sector , the answer is clearly : no.
It is not enough to measure !
Beyond measure, many questions must be asked. It is particularly
necessary to guarantee:
Secure storage of data (measurements, alarms) over several years, even
decades, and easy recovery in case of an audit.
Non-falsifying data afterwards.
Track all the changes the system configuration with the date, author, and
the reason for the change (audit trail of the configuration).
The establishment of a rigorous users management system requiring often
a direct link with the LDAP corporate directory.

Validation : Significant cost
When choosing a system of monitoring, the costs of acquiring and
commissioning must be taken into account, but they actually represent a
small part of total costs. The costs of initial validation of the system may be
important but also the costs of additional qualification , for each change in
the scope of surveillance. It is therefore essential to opt for a monitoring
system that , by design , greatly reduces the cost of incremental validation.
For example , the system can, from a single point automatically update PLC
programs and automatically change the structure of the database and
update compliance reports by room.

IVTracer : a solution which meets perfectly GMP requirements
IVTracer is a tool that brings to an industrial site a veritable " monitoring
infrastructure " fully compliant with GMP requirements. Once installed, it is
very simple and inexpensive to evolve thanks to a strong technology for
automatic diffusion in the system in any case of change.
For optimal effectiveness, this infrastructure can be pooled across multiple
production sites, on central servers.
Each site has just to connect its probes (wired or wireless) without the need
for re-qualification of the central software. The savings costs can be
significant.
Deployed on several thousand points of critical monitoring, constantly
evolving to meet the demands of its customers, IVTracer is not linked to any
manufacturer and therefore helps with the implement of a GMP monitoring
solution strong, independent, sustainable and easy to maintain and evolve.
