What makes this hard
In pharmaceuticals & life sciences, GxP validation means every system change needs documented evidence before it reaches production. Applied to literature monitoring, that means the automation has to carry an audit trail and a clean escalation path before it carries any speed benefit at all.
We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.
Deployed across regulated and unregulated sectors, with audit trails where the regulator expects them. You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.
How we sequence it
- 01BaselineMeasure the current cycle time, touch count and error rate on literature monitoring. Without that number there is no way to prove the automation worked.
- 02Map the exceptionsDocument what actually happens when the process does not run cleanly. The exceptions, not the happy path, decide whether this automation survives contact with real operations.
- 03Integrate firstConnect to LIMS and QMS before building any intelligence on top. A model that cannot reach the system of record cannot finish the work.
- 04Ship narrowAutomate the highest-volume, lowest-variance slice and put it in front of real users, with anything uncertain escalated to a human.
- 05Measure and widenReport the straight-through rate against the baseline, then absorb the next tier of exceptions. Coverage rises over time rather than being promised on day one.

Questions
Can literature monitoring be automated reliably?
The high-volume, low-variance portion can, with anything uncertain escalated to a human. In pharmaceuticals & life sciences, GxP validation means every system change needs documented evidence before it reaches production, so the escalation path matters as much as the automation itself.
What does it integrate with?
Typically LIMS, QMS, eTMF, SAP, pharmacovigilance databases. We assess your specific estate during discovery rather than assuming a standard setup.
What about compliance?
CDSCO, US FDA 21 CFR Part 11, EU GMP Annex 11, GxP validation, ICH guidelines are in scope for this sector. Audit trail and human oversight are built in from the start, not added before go-live.
Can an AI system be GxP validated?
Yes, with a documented validation approach, IQ/OQ/PQ, defined intended use, change control and evidence of consistent performance. We build the validation pack alongside the system, not afterwards.
How do you handle 21 CFR Part 11?
Audit trails, electronic signatures, access control and record integrity designed in from the start, because retrofitting them is effectively a rebuild.
