GMP documentation discipline, versioned, signed and inspection-ready.
Document control, deviation and CAPA workflows, training records and equipment logs for pharmaceutical and supplement manufacturers in South Africa, built on GMP principles with every action time-stamped and attributable to one named person.
ASCloud gives supplement and pharmaceutical manufacturers in South Africa GMP document control, deviation and CAPA workflows, training records and equipment logs, with every action time-stamped, attributable to one named person and signed off in line with the ECT Act. The Certification plan costs R3,800 per site per month excluding VAT, with scope quoted per site, as at September 2026.
Documentation is the inspection
In a GMP environment the documentation system is not support for the work; it is the work. ASCloud gives supplement and pharma sites version-controlled document management with review-and-approve workflows, deviation registers that route to CAPA with effectiveness checks, equipment logbooks and calibration schedules, training matrices with sign-off evidence per SOP version, and batch documentation with a full audit trail in which late or edited entries are flagged and the original kept.
- Superseded versions locked and archived, never in circulation
- Every sign-off is a named individual, in line with the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act 25 of 2002, with date and time
- Environmental monitoring rounds scheduled and escalated like any CCP
Where it fits your quality system
ASCloud runs on the Certification plan and is configured to your existing quality manual and SOPs; the onboarding migrates what you already have. Sites pursuing food-grade certification for nutraceutical lines run FSSC 22000 on the same platform.
Print less, prove more
Wet-ink signature pages, printed SOP copies at every workstation and archive boxes of batch records carry cost and risk. See the printing versus paperless comparison for what a controlled-print environment spends per year.
Asked before every demo
Is ASCloud validated for pharmaceutical use?
ASCloud provides the documentation controls a GMP environment expects: versioning, access control, attributable electronic signatures and complete audit trails. Regulatory applicability is scoped per site with the ASC consulting team before implementation, and your validation documentation can reference the platform controls.
Can we control who sees and approves each document?
Yes. Role-based access runs on least privilege: authors draft, reviewers comment, approvers sign, and everyone else reads the current version only. The approval history travels with the document.
How are training records handled?
Each SOP version carries its own training sign-off list. When a document is revised, affected staff are flagged for re-training and the matrix shows who is current, per version, at a glance.
