Equipment Logbook

SOP

Effectively create, manage and store your equipment logbooks

Process XE Equipment Logbook is essentially electronic capture of data of equipment’s in manufacturing plants; mostly other than those captured in electronic batch records.

According to the GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) manufacturers must maintain proper documentation and records throughout their production process other than the batch records, which includes logbooks. Proper documentation helps to understand the complete manufacturing processes which are necessary for future reference. Regulatory inspectors spend their maximum time in examining the company’s various documentation and records. Effective documentation reflects quality of company production.

Manufacturing companies faces several challenges when they make use of manual paper-based logbooks:

  • Manual recording is difficult for equipment calibration, maintenance, cleaning, operation usage, logs with manual paper-based method
  • Insufficient logs of equipment maintenance, calibration, cleaning, operation logs
  • Manual data entry in logbook leads to reduce productivity, irrelevant data entry, errors, deviation, batch running time mismatch etc.
  • Tracking of paper-based logbooks are very complicated & time taken process
  • Physical logbook needs proper review, as written details are as per ALCOA or not. This activity consumes many hours of production personals to do it effectively and as per SOP’s. If any correction is there in filled logbook, then it’s very lengthy process to make it correct. As per SOP, the person must put authorized sign & date along with the appropriate reason on prepared document for changes in Logbook. This whole process becomes a headache for users.
