InstantGMP Inc. and Entrenar.se Partner for Innovative, Cloud-Based FDA Compliant Solutions


According to InstantGMP President Richard Soltero, “Our new integration with Entrenar.se makes the training process dramatically easier for smaller players with limited in-house resources.”

According to InstantGMP President Richard Soltero, “Every FDA-regulated company is required to maintain good manufacturing practices (GMP), and that means three things: written standard-operating-procedures or SOPs, documented proof that the SOPs are being followed, and documentation that every employee is adequately trained. Our new integration with Entrenar.se makes the process dramatically easier for smaller players with limited in-house resources.”

With this new partnership, the Entrenar.se Learning Management System (LMS) will work with the InstantGMP training activities, so that companies can easily obtain documentation regarding employee training and remain compliant. This partnership offers automated curricula with on-line training that, when completed, automatically updates the employee’s training log and certifications.

The entrenar.se Learning Management System (LMS) allows training to be done on-line in a predefined sequence that can include quizzes, certificates and automatic updates to a user’s training log. The LMS organizes training activities so users can access training either on-line via e-mails or from the InstantGMP platform. Users can also create documents, equipment, and/or batch records needed for training in InstantGMP. The LMS provides autonomous processes that keep training activities moving on their own to maximize the user’s training experience while minimizing the overhead needed to keep everyone’s training up to date.

The main benefits of this new partnership to improve compliance are (1) automated training on Standard Operating Procedures or SOPs, and (2) the ability to verify that operators are trained before starting a specific manufacturing process. InstantGMP provides 100+ standard operating procedures covering procurement, inventory management, quality management and manufacturing, and companies can add their own specific SOPs.

This new collaboration helps keep everyone up-to-date with SOPs in a seamless and efficient way, even new staff. With InstantGMP and the Entrenar.se LMS, supervisors can create training assignments that are automatically assigned to new staff without requiring additional supervisor involvement. New employees will need to complete the on-line training curricula in a specific order, in which quizzes and certificates ensure and document their progression. Once the operator completes their training, their training log in the software is automatically updated to show they were trained, and their certificates are uploaded into their personal training record so that they can move on to production.

About InstantGMP, Inc.

Founded by pharmaceutical industry veteran Richard Soltero, InstantGMP, Inc., offers affordable all-in-one manufacturing and quality software. InstantGMP™ is an FDA-compliant electronic manufacturing execution system designed for products subject to current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) regulations and FDA requirements. The software organizes and manages production processes, benefitting companies by improving batch quality across several industries including biopharmaceuticals, biotech, CBD, dietary supplements, and medical devices. Designed by industry experts, the electronic batch records software makes it easy for firms to use master production records and batch production records in a system that automatically enforces cGMP compliance.

Nancy W. Njoroge’s newly released “3 Powerful Morning Prayers” is a compelling guide that helps one figure out how to listen to the Holy Spirit and pray by faith


News Image

“3 Powerful Morning Prayers”: a beautiful key to growing one’s prayer life and listening to the Holy Spirit and His blessed power. “3 Powerful Morning Prayers” is the creation of published author Nancy W. Njoroge, a registered nurse with a bachelor of science degree. She spends most of her time praying and reading the Word of God. She also spends a lot of her time writing. She also speaks in churches, colleges, and universities, giving hope and encouragement, especially to young people and student nurses.

Njoroge shares, “Routine, commitment, and focus are very important words in our day-to-day lives. In order to be focused and committed in my daily routine, with the help of the Holy Spirit, I generated these three powerful morning prayers. These prayers will help anyone who has a desire to pray every day and also anyone who wants to stay focused. These three powerful morning prayers will help you stay focused even when you do not feel like praying because prayers are not a feeling. Every morning, I wake up to pray whether I feel like it or not. These three powerful morning prayers are the prayers of thanksgiving, the Lord’s Prayer, and the prayer of Jabez. Jesus taught his disciples how to pray, the Bible tells us to enter his gates with thanksgiving, and Jabez prayed to God and God granted him his request. As you pray these prayers, allow the Holy Spirit to guide you every day. Make a commitment that every morning before you attend to other things, you will sit on your secret place and pray these three powerful morning prayers.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Nancy W. Njoroge’s new book is a brilliant reference to remember as it helps and guides those who struggle in their prayer life. The prayers in this manuscript can be prayed daily and are life-changing if people allow the Holy Spirit to enter their troubled hearts.
