Yokogawa Electric Corporation  releases OpreX™ Quality  Management System, a product in the OpreX Operational Risk Management family. 

OpreX Quality Management System is a cloud-based system that can accelerate the digital  transformation of quality assurance processes for the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals and food &  beverages. It streamlines operations and allows for continuous improvements by enabling the tracking  and centralised management of quality assurance processes such as the handling of deviations from  manufacturing procedures and specified standards, implementation of CAPA, changes to  manufacturing procedures, and revision of documents. 

In addition to taking steps to ensure swift compliance with GMP and GQP standards and enhance  quality assurance processes, the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry has been looking to  streamline operations and reduce costs. 

At the same time, quality assurance with the production of pharmaceuticals and food & beverages involves a broad range of processes that include dealing with deviations, implementing CAPA, and managing any necessary changes to manufacturing procedures, so smooth and correct management  of these processes is a necessity. 

1. No-code workflow building for flexible improvements to quality assurance processes. The need to code workflows for handling deviations, implementing CAPA, changing  manufacturing procedures, revising documents, creating education records, and other such  processes is eliminated, enabling the flexible programming-free handling of a wide variety of  quality assurance processes. 

2. An advanced platform enabling the addition of functions and linkage with other systems. This product is a cloud-based system built on the globally proven, flexible, and highly scalable  ServiceNow® platform. With this platform, updates for new functions can be performed swiftly. Furthermore, as a standard feature, a variety of connectors are provided for linking to  manufacturing execution systems, laboratory information management systems, and the like.  This reduces the time and effort required to integrate the handling of data by different systems, and the likelihood of human error, thus enabling the precise and efficient execution of quality  management operations. 

3. Contribution to data integrity through compliance with rigorous regulatory standards. The audit trail and user management methods employed by this system comply with global  pharmaceutical regulations, leading to improved integrity in the handling of data for quality  assurance processes. This product uses the latest security protocols that comply with the standards  of the International Standards Organization, thus enabling robust security.
