Title 21 Part 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) deals with the guidelines of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States for electronic records and electronic signatures (ERES). Part 11 specifies the criteria under which electronic records and signatures as an equivalent to paper records (Title 21 CFR Part 11 section 11.1 (a)) are considered to be trustworthy and reliable. The optional SPS/Vsorp software extension meets these requirements and enables secure, transparent, and compliant documentation.
- Compliance by Design
- Secure User Management
- Complete Data Traceability
- Seamless Integration
Additional 21 CFR Part 11 Software Package
In a GLP or GMP certified environment, the SPS/Vsorp standard software does not meet the requirements for trustworthy and reliable electronic records. Therefore, the 21 CFR Part 11 compliant software package is available.
