Electronic batch record (EBR) is a digital system designed to track, streamline and automate manufacturing production processes. It captures, monitors, and stores production data for all batches in a production line, ensuring transparency and compliance with quality standards throughout the manufacturing process. Presently, electronic batch record system is employed in various fields, such as drug manufacturing, healthcare, biotechnology, and food and beverage industries where regulatory compliance and quality assurance are crucial.
Manual batch records present several challenges that can significantly impact manufacturing processes since they are more susceptible to human errors, leading to potential regulatory standard violations. Hence, various manufacturers employ electronic batch records to obtain high-quality products with reduced operating and manufacturing cost. In 1990, the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) issued compliance standards under 21 CFR Part 11 to promote Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) which paved the way for batch manufacturing solutions highlighting the need for adoption of electronic batch records.
