Flexible Batch Management for Process Industries
AVEVA Refining Solutions offers Batch Management software that efficiently handles flexible batch operations in industries like life sciences, fine chemicals, and food and beverage/CPG. Following the ISA-88 standards for batch control, this software guides and oversees both recipe management and batch execution. It seamlessly integrates with plant control systems, interfaces with operators, and manages batch activity, material flow, and production data for a comprehensive electronic batch record (EBR).
Operational Excellence and Improved Productivity
Manufacturers benefit from increased yields, enhanced product quality, and improved operational efficiency with AVEVA Batch Management software. By automating batch processes, it ensures consistent quality, maximizes asset utilization, eliminates paper records, and reduces batch release cycles. This control-system-neutral system enables standardization of recipe and batch management across the organization, facilitating agile responses to market demands and streamlining the new product introduction process.
Key Features of Batch Management
AVEVA Batch Management software provides comprehensive features like recipe execution management, automatic data capture, full product genealogy, and material traceability. Process engineers can create and modify recipes methodically and securely without needing expertise in the underlying control system. The Batch Management server hosts process models, material details, and recipe information to manage batch execution effectively, coordinating operations across networked equipment and facilitating operator interaction.
Enhanced Process Capabilities and Connectivity
Along with ISA-88 compliance, Batch Management offers a unique process capability model that includes connections to equipment models and transfer phases management. This feature simplifies process modeling, enables flexible product paths, and allows multi-product and multi-stream batch execution with detailed material traceability. The software's control system neutrality ensures seamless real-time communication with any control system or plant floor device.
Regulatory Compliance and Electronic Batch Records
AVEVA Batch Management supports compliance with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and Eudralex Vol. 4 Annex 11 regulations. It enforces batch sequencing, provides security features like electronic signatures in batch records, and ensures comprehensive material management. This results in detailed electronic batch records that meet regulatory requirements for computer systems used in manufacturing.
