    Keep changes to regulated systems attributable and reviewable.

    Reign connects engineering work to records that quality, privacy and audit teams can review. The scope identifies the systems and data involved, the required access and approvals, and the records created by the products used.

    Changes and AI use

    Give reviewers a record they can follow.

    Software changes

    Reign Factory is available today. For eligible, well-specified work, it implements and tests the change and opens a pull request in the organization’s existing review process. The organization’s checks, reviewers and approval policy determine what reaches production.

    Governed AI traffic

    Reign Gateway is available today. It creates an evidence record for each AI call sent through it, showing the caller, route, policy decision, destination, outcome, time and cost, subject to approved capture settings.

    Operated engineering platforms

    Reign Ops is available today. iTmethods assumes the agreed operating responsibilities for the engineering tools and open source services in scope. The operating record identifies the changes made under that service and the people involved.

    Agreed scope

    Record the systems, data and decisions involved.

    Organization’s quality function

    Identifies the systems in scope, sets acceptance criteria, approves the validation approach and determines whether the system is validated.

    Organization’s privacy and data-protection functions

    Determine the data categories, lawful basis, permitted locations, access requirements and retention rules that apply.

    iTmethods

    Operates or delivers the agreed engineering work and creates the applicable operating or evidence records. The deployment and operating plan records the selected environment, access, data handling, retention and approval roles.

    Electronic records and AI in regulated systems

    Use the evidence within your quality system.

    United States

    21 CFR Part 11

    Part 11 provides requirements for electronic records and electronic signatures used for regulated FDA activities. The organization’s quality and legal functions determine whether it applies and how a system is validated.

    European Union

    GMP Annex 11 and draft Annex 22

    The current Annex 11 addresses computerized systems used in GMP activities. A revised Annex 11 and a new Annex 22 covering AI in pharmaceutical manufacturing were published for consultation on 7 July 2025; the consultation closed on 7 October 2025.

    As of 27 October 2026, the European Commission's EudraLex Volume 4 page still lists Annex 11 as the January 2011 revision and shows no Annex 22, so the texts remain drafts unless the European Commission publishes an adopted version.

    These texts provide context for the records and responsibilities described here. The organization’s quality, privacy, compliance and legal functions determine applicability, validation and the conclusions supported by the evidence. Beyond SOC 2 Type II for Reign Ops, no other certification or accreditation is claimed.

    Where the work runs

    Choose the deployment model that fits the system and data scope.

    The deployment and operating plan records the environment, access, data handling, retention and approval roles that quality and privacy teams review. The Deployment page explains where applications, data and records sit and how administrative access and operating responsibility are recorded.

    01Single-tenant
    A dedicated single-tenant deployment for each customer. There is no multi-tenant or shared option.
    02Where it runs
    In infrastructure iTmethods operates, or in the customer’s AWS or Azure account.
    03Air-gapped and sovereign
    Air-gapped and sovereign deployment are supported.
