The Common Control Platform Version 6 (CCP&reg v6) software is compatible with the Windows XP operating system. The software interface links biochromatography and tangential flow filtration (TFF) systems to a single control and data handling system. CCP v6 software offers users advanced security and traceability. The easy-to-use recipe manager ensures that system operators only select from an appropriate pool of recipes, which are set by an administrator and related to the batch in process. Any edits or modification to a recipe is accompanied with an electronic signature. In addition, the operator’s ID is logged with every event or data point. With automatic and secure data acquisition, CCP v6 software provides an information trail for process review and regulatory compliance. CCP v6 software offers reliable and flexible management of the connectivity between diverse biopurification systems. The software monitors process parameters and enables batch reporting. As a result, applications developed in the laboratory can be quickly and easily scaled up. CCP v6 software is compliant with Good Automation Manufacturing Practices (GAMP) and FDA regulation 21 CFR Part 11 for electronic records and signatures. The software also operates on Windows NT.
