In addition to streamlined log management, MasterControl Logbooks also enhances quality control. Robust permissions management functionality ensures that users only see and launch logbooks that are relevant to their responsibilities. The solution also offers features such as training checks, mandatory fields, and correction logs that enhance traceability and data integrity.
“With MasterControl Logbooks, all your documents are in one place instead of on hundreds and hundreds of pages scattered throughout the plant,” said Pine Pharmaceuticals IT System Administrator Robert Mansell. “The interface is easy to use, and the design is so simple it’s scary. Everything you need is right on screen, but if you do need something else the links are all right there.”
