ABM drives greater accuracy and efficiency in regulated industries using tech-enabledGood Manufacturing Practices (GMP) to meet compliance and audit challenges.
Pharmaceutical, food, and other manufacturing industries demand cleaning solutions that comply with high regulatory standards. The growing need for more accurate and faster access to information to ensure compliance requires solutions that go beyond paper. ABM's digital GMP solution, which leverages a mobile app for data collection along with a management dashboard for visibility and tasks validation, was designed to do just that.
The Limits of Paper
Traditionally used for convenience, paper methods are error-prone, difficult to manage, and cannot provide real-time data.
- Production and storage of paper records is costly
- Reviewing paper log books is labor intensive and cannot be done in real time
- Data entry errors, undocumented services, and misplaced log books require costly monitoring, investigations and re-training
The Digital Advantage of ABM GMP Cleaning
ABM's digital GMP solution gives facility leaders more accurate, faster access to critical data to ensure improved regulatory compliance. Using a mobile application, the front line uses a digital task list, QR codes, and photos to record and document work in real time. The digital record is automatically uploaded and accessible by facility leaders. This increases transparency, reduces errors, lowers costs, and increases regulatory adherence in controlled spaces.
Benefits include:
- Real-time data collection
- Electronic signature capture
- QR code functionality
- Leverages training records to ensure that qualified team members perform tasks
- Messaging, including photos and attachments
Chemical Tracking, Made Easy
Leaders gain access to chemicals being used at the facility, including name, lot number, expiration date, and last open date when team members scan cleaning containers with their mobile device.
Dashboard for Real-Time Visibility and Reporting
GMP data captured across the facility is uploaded in real time, providing leaders with improved visibility into cleaning status and completion via management dashboards.
- Easier to spot tasks that may have been missed, threatening compliance.
- Gain assurance that the right frontline team members are assigned to tasks that require specialized training.
- Access a holistic view of all assignments, with the ability to drill-down for details.
Accuracy and Transparency for Higher Compliance
With ABM's digital GMP solution, documentation gains greater accuracy. Digital log books reduce common errors from paper-based systems that result in deviations due to human errors, incorrect dates, times, and even pen type. Immediate access to critical data reduces time spent updating log books, while alleviating the cost and efficiency of storing paper documents.
