Calibration management and equipment register

Features

What you do with Calibration & measuring equipment

Register with colour badges

Each instrument shows whether it is in order, nearly due or overdue for calibration, with the number of days. Search by name, code, category or serial number and filter by calibration due date.

Next due date calculated automatically

You set the interval once. With every calibration you record, the next due date moves on automatically, and categories fill in default intervals for you.

Read certificates with AI

Attach the calibration certificate as audit evidence. If it is a PDF and AI is switched on, AI fills in the date, result, certificate number, calibrating party and measuring points for you to check before saving.

Failure triggers a CAPA

When you record a calibration as failed, the instrument is set to Rejected and a corrective action is created automatically. After a successful calibration it is back in use.

Drift chart per instrument

If you enter the measured deviation, you get a chart per calibration with the tolerance band. From three rising data points BrydgeOne estimates around which date the tolerance limit will be exceeded.

Track interim verifications

Alongside calibrations you can track verifications, such as an internal check with a reference weight, with their own shorter interval and alerts.

In practice

How it works

1
Add an instrument
With New instrument you enter a name and category, and the code is assigned automatically. In the file you add location, responsible person, interval and permitted deviation.
2
Record a calibration
After the calibration you record the date, result, calibrating party and certificate number and attach the certificate.
3
Warned in time
When an instrument comes within its warning period, you get a Calibration due notification and the date appears in the calendar.
4
Follow up deviations
A failed calibration or defect report sets the instrument to Rejected or out of service and creates a corrective action for the responsible person.

In the employee app

In the employee app, staff use the Measuring equipment tile to check whether an instrument is calibrated and to report a defect or deviation. Anyone who scans the QR sticker on the instrument sees without logging in whether it may be used.

A selection of what AI does in Calibration & measuring equipment

AI reads certificates, proposes a calibration plan and summarises instruments, and you check what gets recorded.

Reading the certificate

If you upload a calibration certificate as a PDF, AI fills in the date, result, certificate number, performer and measurement points, and you check them before saving.

Proposing a calibration plan

If the interval or permitted deviation is still empty, AI proposes a usual calibration plan that you can accept.

Summary per instrument

AI writes a short summary of the instrument that updates itself when you change its details.

Questions about calibration data

On the AI tab you ask, for example, which instruments are due for calibration soon.

This is a selection of the AI capabilities in this module, not everything. AI suggests, you decide. Nothing is applied without your approval.

How to build a HACCP plan: the seven principles in plain languageBuilding a HACCP plan means deciding in advance where in your process food can become unsafe and how you prevent that. You work with seven principles and a few preparatory steps. Here you read what each step involves and how to approach it in practice. Keeping track of work equipment inspection and maintenance: how to build an inspection registerYou keep track of work equipment inspection and maintenance in a register that holds, per item, its identification, location, type of inspection, interval, last and next date, the party who carried it out, the outcome, the certificate and the status. As an employer you decide which equipment has to be inspected, have a competent person do it, and be able to show the written proof at the workplace. Below you can read how to set this up, where intervals come from, what to do after a rejection and what an example register looks like. Managing calibration of measuring equipment: register, interval and certificatesYou manage the calibration of measuring equipment with a register in which every instrument has its own line, with accuracy and tolerance, interval, last and next calibration date, certificate and status. Calibration establishes how much an instrument deviates from a reference, so you know whether you can still trust your measurements. Below you can read which instruments to include, how to set the interval, what to do when an instrument turns out to be out of tolerance and what an example register looks like.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Calibration & measuring equipment

Do I have to track the next calibration date myself?

No. Set the interval once and BrydgeOne calculates the next date with every calibration you record. You can always enter a different date manually.

What is the difference between out of service and rejected?

Rejected follows from a failed calibration or verification and clears itself after a successful calibration. Out of service is set by you or by a defect report, and stays until you change it back.

Can I prevent measurements with an expired instrument?

Yes, with the module setting that blocks measuring with an expired instrument, which is off by default. An expired or rejected instrument can then no longer be selected when entering a measurement in Measurement reports.

What does the result adjusted mean?

The instrument was adjusted during calibration and then approved. It simply stays in use.

Start small
