Core Capabilities

Comprehensive Features for Complete Data Lifecycle Management

Data Capture and Ingestion:

Watcher 4.0 identifies, collects, and structures relevant laboratory data including spectra, chromatograms, metadata, and device configurations. Our passive data capture technology monitors defined data sources without interfering with ongoing processes, while active capture enables direct integration with laboratory instruments and software systems.

Context and Traceability:

Beyond simple storage, Watcher 4.0 captures the complete context of your data: who generated it, which instrument was used, under what conditions, whether modifications occurred, and if digital signatures were applied. This comprehensive traceability is essential for quality assurance and regulatory audits.

Intelligent Archiving:

Automated policies manage data throughout its lifecycle, from hot storage for active projects to cost-effective cold storage for long-term retention. Watcher 4.0 ensures data remains accessible, readable, and verifiable throughout the entire retention period, whether that's 10, 25, or even 50 years.

Compliance and Validation

Designed for Regulatory Excellence

Watcher 4.0 is engineered with compliance at its core. The platform implements ALCOA+ principles by default, ensuring that all data remains Attributable, Legible, Contemporaneous, Original, Accurate, Complete, Consistent, Enduring, and Available throughout its lifecycle.

Compliance Features:

• 21 CFR Part 11 Compliant: Full electronic signature and audit trail capabilities
• EU Annex 11 Ready: Meets all requirements for computerized systems
• GAMP 5 Aligned: Designed for efficient validation with minimal CSV requirements
