About Project

The Batch Manufacturing Record (BMR) module manages the full lifecycle of manufacturing documentation from creation and review to approval, issuance, and retrieval. It’s a critical system in pharma, ensuring every manufacturing step is properly recorded, controlled, and compliant.

The earlier BMR system had an higher task completion time, scattered workflows, and unclear lifecycle stages, making it difficult for teams to create, manage, and trace BMRs efficiently.

To simplify BMR creation and lifecycle management with a modern, structured, and traceable workflow that reduces confusion and makes the entire process faster and more compliant.

Mapping User Flows to Uncover Hidden Gaps

We studied how Production, QA, and Documentation teams actually create BMRs, revealing repeated inputs, unclear transitions, and heavy offline coordination. This gave us a clear roadmap for a guided, streamlined flow.

We rebuilt the entire BMR lifecycle into a guided, stage-wise flow that reflects real manufacturing practices. Manual decisions and backtracking were removed, reviews became predictable with clear version cues, and a Manufacturing Packing tab switch lets users move between flows effortlessly.

Since BMR and BPR share the same structure but differ in function, we added a simple tab switch to toggle between them. This keeps both workflows clearly separated while using one familiar layout—reducing duplication, avoiding confusion, and helping teams switch contexts effortlessly.

The review screen brings everything into one workspace the BMR document on the left and all product details and comments on the right.

Reviewers no longer switch tabs or hunt for information. Key details are visible without scrolling, making verification faster and more accurate. Reducing back-and-forth and simplifying the entire review process.

The older BMR workflow made it difficult for teams to identify which records needed immediate attention.

We added a Priority Selector so teams can instantly see which BMRs need urgent attention. Users can set or adjust priority anytime, ensuring critical batches never get lost in the workflow.
