Agatha QMS is built for quality and compliance teams operating in global, multi-site environments who need centralized event management, seamless inspection readiness, and data-driven quality improvements — all without the overhead of on-premise infrastructure.

Compliance and Document Management

  • Fully compliant with Electronic Records/Electronic Signatures (ER/ES) guidelines and 21 CFR Part 11, supporting secure digital original document management in the cloud.
  • Records operation logs and audit trails to ensure Data Integrity (DI) compliance across all quality processes.
  • Meets GxP requirements, enhancing quality management in highly regulated industries.
  • QMS forms can be converted to PDF at any point, producing appropriately formatted, signed electronic records ready for inspection.

Centralized Event Management and Inspection Readiness

  • Links deviation management, complaint handling, CAPA, and change control events to ensure complete traceability across the quality lifecycle.
  • All reports and records are stored in the cloud, enhancing data visibility and connectivity.
  • Supports GMP compliance and 21 CFR Part 11 and DI requirements, enabling quick and efficient retrieval of essential records during audits and inspections.
  • Centralizes quality information to facilitate smooth audit responses and reduce operational burdens.

Main Features and Capabilities

  • Advanced Forms: Work with ready-to-use standard forms and processes, or adapt them using a form designer to update the look and framework. A dynamic, multipart form supports all steps in a process from deviation to change control, adding appropriate sections based on information provided at each stage.
  • Built-in Reviews and Approvals: Reviews, approvals, and assignments for actions are built into the workflow to help businesses reach their quality objectives.
  • Metrics and Reporting: Built-in dashboards and reports provide all necessary reporting. Custom reports can be generated and exported to Excel or CSV format. Cross-workspace reporting allows views and reports to be created across workspaces and exported to Excel for dashboard reports.
  • Complete Records: Full quality records with signatures and audit trails are maintained and ready for inspection, fully compliant with 21 CFR Part 11 and EU regulatory requirements.
  • Forms and PDF Export: QMS forms can be converted to PDF at any point, resulting in a properly formatted, signed electronic record.

Workflow Automation and Progress Tracking

  • Automatic database integration stores all event records in the cloud, eliminating the need for manual progress tracking and trend analysis reports.
  • An alert system ensures deadlines are met by automatically notifying and reminding relevant personnel based on predefined triggers.
  • Version control, access management, and workflow automation reduce manual tasks, prevent errors, and standardize quality management operations across the organization.

Key Benefits

  • Regulatory Compliance: Ensures adherence to 21 CFR Part 11, ISO 13485, GMP, and GCP, with centralized management of deviations, change controls, CAPA, and quality information.
  • Increased Productivity: Systemization and workflow automation reduce manual effort and standardize quality operations organization-wide.
  • Improved Risk Management: Real-time quality data analysis enables early detection of potential issues and swift corrective actions, minimizing quality risks.
  • Cost-Effective Implementation: Eliminates on-premise server management costs and reduces printing and storage expenses through paperless operations.
  • Advanced Security: Operates in a secure cloud environment with granular permission settings, ensuring authorized personnel access only the information they need to safeguard data integrity and confidentiality.
