Validation strategy, requirements, test evidence, traceability, and practical delivery across computerised manufacturing and lab systems.

Part 11 and Annex 11

Electronic records, electronic signatures, audit trails, access controls, data integrity, and validation lifecycle expectations.

Automation systems

Plant-floor context across DCS, SCADA, PLC, historian, vision, inspection, packaging, and supporting infrastructure.

AI in Pharma tooling

Proof-of-concept AI workflows for first-pass document review, AI URS generation, evidence extraction, and review consistency.
