NIBRT and salamanderU launch SmartReg partnership: Revolutionary voice technology to transform bioprocess training

salamanderU is pleased to announce the availability of the SmartReg system for National Institute for Bioprocessing Research and Training (NIBRT) training. This cutting-edge technology represents a significant advancement in the training and development of future biopharmaceutical professionals, enabling hands-on experience with cutting-edge equipment designed to optimize efficiency, compliance, and data integrity in production environments. SmartReg is the only voice-activated, GMP-compliant electronic batch record (eBR) and manufacturing execution system (MES) platform currently used in production and quality control (QC). Its innovative design allows operators to work hands-free, eliminating the need for pen, paper, or keyboards in the cleanroom. This advancement not only simplifies operations but also offers a highly intuitive interface, designed by users for users, ensuring easy adoption and minimizing the need for specialized software engineering support.

Main advantages of SmartReg:

Increased operator efficiency: Operators can focus fully on their tasks without the need for physical documentation. Hands-free operation eliminates workflow interruptions, reducing batch processing time and eliminating the need for a secondary transcription operator.

Real-time data recording: Voice input ensures accurate and instant data entry at the point of action, minimizing transcription delays and errors. This feature improves compliance and overall data integrity.

Improved Compliance: SmartReg guides operators through step-by-step, GMP-compliant instructions while automatically documenting protocol adherence. This reduces human error and the risk of deviations during batch production.

Improved data integrity and traceability: The system ensures secure and regulatory-compliant data recording, while reducing the risk of data entry errors or falsification inherent in manual processes.

Claude Dedry, CEO of SalamanderU, commented on this milestone, saying, “The successful installation of SmartReg at NIBRT marks a significant step toward expanding training and raising awareness of bioprocess innovation. This collaboration embodies our shared commitment to excellence and our vision of a future where cutting-edge technologies and expertise equip the thousands of NIBRT trainees each year with the tools needed to become the next generation of pharmaceutical industry leaders.”

The integration of the SmartReg system at NIBRT demonstrates its ongoing commitment to providing best-in-class training environments that reflect the latest industry practices. John Milne, Director of Training Alliances and Innovation at NIBRT, said, “We are committed to equipping trainees with the tools and expertise to excel in the evolving biopharmaceutical industry.” By providing trainees with hands-on experience with this innovative system, NIBRT continues to prepare them for the challenges and opportunities of the evolving biopharmaceutical industry.
