Bespoke Systems Engineering
Our batch logic is developed in accordance with ISA S88, reducing engineering effort and making systems easier to test and validate. We have successfully implemented batch and recipe management systems for pharmaceutical customers across a variety of platforms.
Using relational databases, our systems provide complete product genealogy, with reports generated on a lot, batch, shift or event-driven basis. Flexible data access is emphasised throughout — supporting process management, customer data requirements and regulatory compliance. The use of industry-standard relational databases also means the system can be maintained and enhanced by the customer without the need for ongoing outside support.
Validation
R&R Engineering has successfully implemented complex control and information technology solutions for customers in pharmaceutical, water and waste treatment, petrochemical, food and beverage and light manufacturing. Our quality standards ensure that every system we deliver not only performs to specification, but is fully documented and tested to the required standard.
Our batch automation and system validation capability is of particular value to pharmaceutical customers. All systems are designed and tested to comply with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 requirements, and our validation engineers can provide full GAMP4 documentation and testing support, including:
- Quality and Project Plans
- Functional Design Specifications
- Hardware Design Specifications
- Software Design Specifications
- Module Software and Hardware Integration Tests
- Factory Acceptance Tests
- Site Acceptance Tests (IQ/OQ)
- Handover Documentation
- Protocol Implementation
- Project Change Management
Continuing professional development ensures our engineers remain qualified to deliver the required solutions and stay current with the latest industry standards.
Information Technology Integration
As an experienced supplier of process control and manufacturing automation systems, R&R Engineering is well placed to support customers in the selection and implementation of Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and Manufacturing Management Information Systems (MMIS).
By working closely with operations and MIS departments, we help identify the appropriate software tools and provide the engineering required to implement the right IT solution for your business. Collecting critical data at the point of manufacture allows a complete picture of the entire process to be assembled — giving directors, managers, engineers and operators a clear view of production, materials flow, quality control and logistics.
Information technology architectures vary considerably depending on industry and manufacturing practice, and we recognise that one solution does not fit every application. R&R Engineering brings the software and systems knowledge needed to select and implement products that are designed to manage, control and track work in process, inventory, operator activity and manufacturing operations — for both discrete and batch manufacturing facilities.
The IT systems implemented by R&R Engineering have delivered measurable benefits across manufacturing control, production planning, quality control and logistics — reducing costs, improving quality, reducing work in progress and improving day-to-day workflow for teams at every level.
Visual Systems
R&R Engineering offers vision system solutions for customers who require a single supplier for vision-based projects. From initial system design through to software development, equipment build, documentation, installation and commissioning, our engineers manage every aspect of the project from start to finish.
Turnkey Project Delivery
From the initial concept meeting through to final handover, R&R Engineering provides the full range of services required to deliver a complete automation project:
- Instrument calibration
- Control panels and Motor Control Centres
- Systems engineering and controls
- Software development and documentation
- Equipment build and factory testing
- Site installation and commissioning
- Client training and ongoing support
Our engineers develop functional specifications for every project, including the integration design required for interfacing with subsystems or ancillary equipment. We welcome enquiries for turnkey projects of all scales and complexity.
