Clause-by-clause review of your quality system.

Aligntra reads your procedures, records and your suppliers’ documents against the applicable standard and cites each nonconformity to the page and paragraph. Your auditor keeps the verdict. Nothing is sampled.

Evidence-linked findings

Each finding names the clause, the file and the page, states what falls short and why, and quotes the passage it was read from, verbatim. The classification stands only once your auditor confirms it.

1 · The requirement
ISO 13485:2016 · §8.5.2.f

Once a corrective action has run its course, its effectiveness has to be reviewed to confirm it did the job.

2 · What the document says
SOP-QA-002_CAPA.pdf Rev D · p. 6 / 9
Page 6 of the CAPA procedure. Section 6.6 Effectiveness Verification reads: after
                     corrective actions have been implemented, the CAPA may be reviewed to determine if
                     the actions were satisfactory. Section 6.7 CAPA Closure requires the closure file
                     to include effectiveness verification results. Both passages are highlighted.
3 · The finding
Minor NC Unreviewed ISO 13485 · §8.5.2.f
Effectiveness verification procedure is a placeholder — no mandatory requirement, method, timing, or success criteria defined
Why this is a finding
Section 6.6 is the entirety of the effectiveness verification procedure. The permissive language “may be reviewed” rather than “shall be verified” renders this optional rather than mandatory. No methodology, no success criteria, no responsible role, no timing requirements, and no documentation requirements are defined — the section is a placeholder rather than a procedure.
Evidence reviewed · two passages
  1. p. 6 · 6.6 Effectiveness Verification “After corrective actions have been implemented, the CAPA may be reviewed to determine if the actions were satisfactory.”
  2. p. 6 · 6.7 CAPA Closure §.1 “… action plan, implementation evidence, and effectiveness verification results.”

Walk through the whole auditSeven screens from the example QMS, documents to the decision.

You already have somewhere to keep procedures. The question is who reads them.

Your eQMS holds the record: versioning, routing, approvals, signatures. Aligntra never touches that. Below is what comes back when the reading is done, three ways.

How the reading gets done, three ways: your eQMS’s audit module, reading it yourself, and Aligntra.

How it works

01

Upload your documents

PDF · DOCX · XLSX

Up to 50 at a time, in the format they are held. SOPs, procedures, records and supplier documents. No migration, no re-authoring, no naming convention to adopt.

02

Read in full against each clause

nothing sampled

Each document is mapped to the clauses it is expected to satisfy and read in full. Findings arrive unreviewed. An auditor confirms, dismisses or reclassifies each one, and the record retains both the citation and the decision.

03

The record out

XLSX · PDF · JSON

The record stands without access to Aligntra. Coverage, findings and the readiness verdict export to Excel, PDF and JSON for the audit file, citations intact; the marked-up PDF highlights findings in the source document.

See the platformThe six stages of an audit run and the eight views used during one.

Three ways teams use it

The mechanics do not change. Documents are read against the applicable standard and each nonconformity is cited to the page. What changes is who reads the result, and against what deadline.

Security and data handling. Documents are encrypted in transit and at rest, never used to train any model, and scoped to your organization. Security questionnaires and a DPA are available on request. Aligntra produces cited evidence for your auditors to confirm. It does not replace your eQMS and is not a system of record.
