Control your production-related QM processes such as deviation control with our digital workflows. Our integrated solutions manage your previously paper-bound process from capture to completion completely digitally. The workflow system automatically forwards the digital form to the next instance; if deadlines are exceeded, the reminder and escalation management takes effect. Of course, an absence management is also included for the task routing.
How can you benefit from the Deviation Control software solution?
Data integrity
Deviation reports are no longer lost because they are stored electronically from the beginning. You also protect your data from unwanted interference of unauthorized users and from destructive forces.
Process safety
After each step, the workflow system ensures that the deviation is forwarded to the person in charge. The escalation system takes effect in case of missed deadlines.
Increased data security
Protect your data from unwanted interference by unauthorized users and from destructive forces.
Individual configuration
Let the modules be configured according to your wishes and preferences to facilitate the onboarding training of your colleagues.
Constant availability
Access your data at any time. It does not matter where you are.
Traceability
Deviation reports can be linked to other modules such as Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA) and Change Management (CC). Thus a traceable chain of interrelated individual processes is created.
More efficient process runtimes
Our customers achieve significantly lower process runtimes when using the digital solution for deviation management.
Transparency
Every authorized employee sees the current status of all deviation reports – even if he or she is not involved in the process.
Central information platform
Use the d.3ecm system as your central information platform on which you can retrieve all your data on short notice.
Reports
Create reports and statistics about your deviations, e.g. as support for your PQR.

The digital forms are also converted to a PDF/A in parallel. This way, employees who are not involved in the process can also gain insight into the workflow and the document can be shared with external parties if required.
What is a Deviation Control process?
The purpose of the Deviation Control process is to ensure that products, processes, attachments and documents that do not comply with the defined quality specifications are identified, evaluated and subjected to a decision on how to proceed, and that the measures taken are implemented. Affected are products and processes, machines and systems that show a deviation or malfunction as well as deviations from regulations, established procedures and specifications that may have an impact on product quality.
The scope of application concerns
- Production
- Quality control
- Quality assurance
- QM Officer
- Qualified person (QP)
- Galenics
Every action in the process is automatically documented by the system accordingly. Integrated audit trail functions ensure high traceability.
The digital form is filled out step by step and provided with the relevant entries and data. Fields with a blue background are mandatory. Predefined value sets and drop-down functions make it easy for users to fill out the form.
After processing the individual steps (1. Initiation, 2. Cause determination, 3. Risk consideration, etc.), the workflow system automatically sends tasks and messages to the responsible agents or workflow participants. Once all steps have been processed, the workflow is considered complete.
1st Step: Initiation
The recording of a deviation can be done by any employee. After the relevant data has been entered by an employee, the person who will process the causes is determined automatically or can be selected manually, depending on the configuration . For example, the process can be sent to the head of the organizational unit (e.g. department head). If, for example, the employee is the head of the organizational unit, he or she is automatically the recipient of the cause determination process step.
