EU GMP · Annex 11

Computerised-systems integrity.

Instrument: GMP annex, legally binding in the EUApplies to: Pharma manufacturing (EU).

What the signed record shows

System-generated audit trails, access control, archived integrity for GMP-relevant actions.

The proof is a signed, tamper-evident record. Anyone can check it, free, without an account, and nothing has to leave the building to make it. Evidence, not a promise.

Citation: Annex 11 §7/§9/§12/§17

What to do about it

Keep the evidence this asks for, as the work happens.

A consequential AI-proposed action is checked against the human authority in force at that moment, and the decision leaves a signed record that a third party can verify independently, offline, without Regulayer. It runs inside your own environment and nothing has to leave it.
