THE COMPLIANCE GAP

21 CFR Part 111 compliance built in, not bolted on

Without inecta

  • FDA audit prep takes weeks of pulling data from multiple systems
  • Potency tracking lives in spreadsheets and label claims are at risk
  • Formula changes cascade through cost, yield, and labels manually
  • Recall response takes days of cross-referencing paper records and spreadsheets
  • COAs and quality records scattered across email and shared drives

With inecta

  • All 21 CFR Part 111 cGMP documentation in one system — always audit-ready
  • Track potency from raw material through finished goods with overage management built in
  • Reformulate and see cost, yield, and label claim impacts instantly
  • Identify every affected lot, customer, and shipment in minutes
  • Generate Certificates of Analysis automatically from in-system quality data

PURPOSE-BUILT FOR SUPPLEMENTS

Everything your nutraceutical operation needs in one platform

GMP compliance — FDA 21 CFR Part 111

A dedicated 21 CFR Part 111 module captures all required current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) documentation: batch production records, component examination records, identity testing at receiving, in-process testing, and finished product release. When FDA auditors arrive, every record is in one place — not scattered across spreadsheets and email.

Formula & recipe management

Manage complex supplement formulations with multi-layer formulas, active ingredient tracking, unit-of-measure conversions (mg, mcg, IU, CFU), and real-time cost modeling. Overage percentages are built directly into the formulation to ensure label claims are met through end of shelf life. When you reformulate, the system updates yields, costs, and label claims automatically.

Potency & overage tracking

Potency and overage tracking is a named, purpose-built feature — not a reframed general QC tool. Track potency levels from raw material receipt through finished goods. Calculate and store required overage percentages for each active ingredient based on stability data, and incorporate them into every batch calculation. Every lot is verified to meet label claims at time of manufacture and through end of shelf life.

Lot traceability & recall management

Trace every raw material lot, intermediate blend, and finished product forward and backward across your supply chain. Meets DSHEA and FSMA traceability requirements for dietary supplements. In a recall or FDA investigation, identify all affected lots, customers, and shipments within minutes — not days.

Quality control & COA generation

Define quality checkpoints at receiving, in-process (blend, fill, coat), and finished product stages. Hold-and-release workflows quarantine non-conforming material automatically. Generate Certificates of Analysis directly from in-system test data — no manual typing. Supports 21 CFR Part 111 identity testing documentation at receiving and vendor qualification records.

Production scheduling & capacity planning

Plan and schedule production runs across blending, encapsulation, tableting, softgel, and packaging lines with visibility into machine capacity, labor availability, and material constraints. Material requirements planning integrates formulation data directly, so ingredient needs are calculated automatically when a production order is placed.

WHY INDUSTRY-SPECIFIC MATTERS

Generic ERP vs. inecta Food ERP for nutraceuticals

Generic ERP was built for distribution and manufacturing in general. Supplement manufacturing requires capabilities that generic platforms simply do not include — and customizing them to fill the gap is expensive and fragile.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions about inecta nutraceutical ERP

Nutraceutical ERP software is an enterprise resource planning system purpose-built for supplement and nutraceutical manufacturers. Unlike generic ERP, it includes industry-specific functionality such as FDA 21 CFR Part 111 cGMP compliance workflows, formula management with potency and overage tracking, lot traceability, and automated COA generation — all connected to finance, inventory, and production in a single platform.

inecta Food ERP includes a dedicated 21 CFR Part 111 module that captures all required cGMP documentation: batch production records, component examination and identity testing at receiving, in-process testing, finished product testing, and product release records. Hold-and-release workflows enforce cGMP requirements at each production stage. The system keeps every record organized and audit-ready at all times — without manual aggregation from spreadsheets or email.

DSHEA (the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994) is the federal statute governing dietary supplements in the United States. It establishes the framework for label claims, New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) notifications, and manufacturer responsibility for product safety and substantiation. inecta Food ERP supports DSHEA compliance through label claim management tied to formulation data, NDI status tracking at the ingredient level, and a documented trail from formula specification through batch production and test results.

inecta Food ERP provides full forward and backward traceability across your entire supply chain. Every raw material lot, intermediate blend, and finished product is tracked from receipt through production, packaging, and shipment. Traceability meets both DSHEA and FSMA requirements for dietary supplements. In a recall scenario, you can identify all affected lots, customers, and shipments within minutes.

Potency tracking records active ingredient levels at each stage — from raw material receipt through finished product. Overage management is the practice of formulating with a calculated surplus of active ingredients to ensure label claims are still met at end of shelf life, accounting for natural degradation. inecta Food ERP includes potency and overage tracking as a purpose-built feature: the system stores overage percentages per active ingredient, incorporates them into every batch calculation, and verifies that each finished lot meets label claims at manufacture and through the stated shelf life. This is critical for DSHEA label claim substantiation.

Yes. inecta Food ERP supports multiple production models including contract manufacturing, private label, and branded product lines. You can manage customer-specific formulas, maintain separate quality specifications per customer or brand, and track costs and margins at the product, customer, and order level.

Generic ERP systems require expensive customization to handle nutraceutical-specific needs like potency and overage tracking, formula management with active ingredient calculations, FDA 21 CFR Part 111 cGMP compliance workflows, identity testing documentation, and automated COA generation. inecta Food ERP includes all of this out of the box — built by a team with 25+ years of food and beverage industry experience. There is no customization project required to make the system work for supplement manufacturing.
