Why Two Types of Software for an Internal Control Audit?

Both of our solutions for conducting an internal control audit help companies assure audit quality control. The reason we offer two solutions has to do primarily with a company's size. Large companies have different needs when it comes to audit software than smaller companies.

MasterControl QAAD™ Provides Audit Software to Meet the Complex Needs of Large Companies

MasterControl QAAD is a centralized and Web-based solution for conducting an internal control audit that provides the flexibility and quality control needed by organizations that have multiple products and facilities, often in international locations.

MasterControl QAAD --

Centralizes information pertaining to internal audit control across departments;
Allows users to raise quality issues across departments;
Provides advanced CAPA functionality (for example, allows CAPAs to follow different workflows within the same internal audit);
Allows users to define an unlimited number of business areas;
Facilitates management of quality activities, including QC, QA or QM-related activities;
Allows users to standardize templates for risk assessments, judgments, categories, findings, CAPAs, root causes, activity workflows, and other documents;
Automates the reporting of findings and report responses for internal audit control;
Automates system messages and email notifications;
Automates the prioritization of findings in an internal control audit by enabling users to filter-out less urgent concerns;
Tracks corrective actions/preventive actions;
Simplifies the receipt of follow-up activities;
Allows users to query data by department, site, supplier, company or person.

When it comes to the quality and flexibility that large companies need for an internal control audit, the sophisticated yet easy-to-use functionality of MasterControl QAAD can't be equaled. This undoubtedly explains why it is the audit software of choice, used by well over half of the top 20 pharmaceutical companies around the world.

MasterControl QAAD provides many standardized reports to meet the needs of large companies -- most importantly, the GLP-required Master Schedule and QA Statement, and the GCP Compliance Statement.

MasterControl Audit™ Assures a State of Continuous Quality and "Audit Readiness"

Smaller companies, even though many have multiple facilities, may not need software for an internal control audit that provides the complex functionality that MasterControl QAAD provides. It goes without saying that the advanced functionality would be nice to have, but what these companies really need -- for now, anyway -- is software for conducting an internal control audit that assures quality and minimizes risk by ensuring a continuous state of "audit readiness". For these companies, MasterControl Audit is the ideal choice.

MasterControl Audit consists of centralized, Web-based software that automates the scheduling of recurring audit-related activities, provides audit tracking and reporting, and automated task assignment and follow-up.

Both Audit Solutions can be Integrated with Other MasterControl Quality Solutions

Both internal audit solutions that we offer can be seamlessly integrated other solutions in the MasterControl Quality Suite™ -- solutions such as document control, change control, CAPA, training control and supplier management, to name but a few of the quality solutions available in the suite.
