Montreal, Canada, April 16, 2009 – Novatek International, www.ntint.com , has rolled out the new and enhanced version of their Calibration, Asset Management and Preventive Maintenance software solution, at a multi site pharmaceutical company.

NOVATEK-CPM is ideal for Engineering and IT executives looking for a software system that acts as a Calibration and Preventive Maintenance data knowledge management center. In a life sciences company, it combines knowledge and resources on an enterprise-wide basis.

Equipment and instruments Calibration and Preventive Maintenance are mission critical processes in the life science industry. Work orders, resource requirements and the management of hundreds, if not thousands, of equipment assets, each with their specific preventive maintenance, calibration protocols and schedules, all necessitate a robust computerized system that provides effective tracking and scheduling of required tasks.

Novatek’s Calibration and Preventive Maintenance not only meets regulatory guidelines, such as cGMP, 21 CFR Part 210-211 and ISO/IEC17025, it is also economically advantageous according to Mr. Parsa Famili, President and CEO of Novatek International. NOVATEK-CPM has become an integral part of Novatek’s clients’ strategy to bring economic value and compliance by:

  • Substantially reducing risk of breakdowns during production
  • Improving the quality of products and services.
  • Increasing efficiency by using functional, company wide knowledge and resources
  • Reducing efforts on low risk activities while increasing quality using a risk-based approach to calibration and PM management.
  • Managing repairs and preventive maintenance effectively by having the appropriate spare part inventory.
  • Decreasing the overall cost and efforts of the company by choosing the right system that can handle company wide requirements effectively reducing information technology (IT) expenses.

There have been hundreds of Calibration and Preventive Maintenance user specifications collected – globally – from a vast array of companies. These in turn have been incorporated in the design of the software. Novatek has therefore created a conglomerate of user specifications representative of the process of Calibration and Preventive Maintenance from the industry in it’s latest version. This collection of universal processes is part of Novatek’s contribution to this industry. The application of the collective user specifications from daily usage and the virtue of PAT methodologies, risk assessments and operational efficiencies make Novatek systems not only a data management tool but a ‘Knowledge Management Tool’. Integration with ERP systems

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems deal with a variety of administrative processes and fixed financial assets. Calibration and Preventive Maintenance management is not a critical to the scope of the average ERP, whose focus is on the financial and not physical asset management. It is designed as both a standalone and an integrated system alongside an ERP system. The latter is used to complement the existing ERP functionalities and to use available information to increase productivity and compliance.
