MODA Announces Availability of Third Generation Mobile Data Acquisition Platform
Paperless QC Micro solution now offers advanced automation capabilities for improved workflow, device integration and media management
WAYNE, PA – December 14, 2009 – MODA Technology Partners, a global software company that automates environmental monitoring (EM), utility and product testing for the Pharmaceutical industry, today announced the general availability of MODA 3.0, the company’s third generation mobile data acquisition platform. The latest release enables quality control (QC) organizations to further automate their regulated manufacturing processes.
MODA 3.0 includes the following new capabilities:
• Fully-Configurable Test Methods: Each test method in the MODA 3.0 library contains configurable business rules that define workflow steps, associated equipment and media, measurement readings and calculated results. Configurations also support establishment of standard action and alert levels, as well as frequency-based rules (i.e. three alerts in a row = one action). Technicians can easily set up any type of test on their own—tailored to their specific Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). This new feature boosts the entire QC Micro operation across all EM, utility, and product tests. Additionally, direct configurations by the technicians allow their organizations to move quickly into production and easily maintain the system in a validated environment through a simple change control process.
• New Device Integration: The MODA platform now integrates with additional air and water testing devices used in and out of today’s clean rooms and labs, thus eliminating manual, paper-based transcription and verification tasks that are error-prone and labor-intensive.
• Media Growth Promotion: MODA 3.0 now manages this common test methodology with built-in checks that tie final approval to only those records where associated media lots have passed their growth promotion test.
• Group Barcoding & Assay Assignment: MODA 3.0 now enables technicians to organize and label test sample groups via barcode for improved usability.
• Enhanced Reporting, Trending & Analysis: Technicians can now spot adverse trends faster so that corrective and preventive actions can be taken sooner to better meet internal and external audit requirements.
“Following several successful deployments of our new platform in 2009,” said Michael Goetter, Vice President of Product Strategy at MODA, “we are pleased to see the life sciences industry continuing its efforts to adopt the critical automation concepts promoted by organizations like the Parenteral Drug Association. We believe that MODA-EM™ and other solutions that embrace these concepts can play a significant role in improving the market for years to come.”
