21 CFR Part 11

Overview

Current Challenge

21 CFR Part 11 is not specific to any type of instrument or technology, but applies to all instruments, applications, and operations that save data electronically to durable media. Assessing a plan on an instrument-by-instrument, or application-by-application basis is not an effective way to plan a compliance strategy. Bringing existing systems - whose original designs may not have included capabilities relating to authentic electronic records - into compliance can be a complex and cumbersome task. Achieving authenticity, reliability, and long-term availability of electronic records is especially taxing on an enterprise-wide basis because record content and structure can easily be altered by the systems used to create and interpret them.
 

NuGenesis SDMS Solution

The Web-based application-independent NuGenesis SDMS platform integrates with multiple analytical and software systems for a compliant, enterprise-wide data management solution. NuGenesis SDMS also brings existing systems into compliance. All technical requirements of 21 CFR Part 11 can be met with NuGenesis SDMS, which includes audit trails, traceability, electronic signatures, and a security grid for access control. NuGenesis SDMS also provides direct access to archived data so that it can be easily located and quickly restored to satisfy internal inquiries or FDA inspections.
