Manual checks create security gaps
Gate staff review paper certificates and IDs. Expired docs, mismatches, and unqualified workers slip through.
Pharmaceutical manufacturing security
Ensure GMP compliance across controlled manufacturing zones
Eliminate audit exposure and contamination risks by validating external companies and workers before perimeter entry. Enforce granular, zone-level access control with continuous compliance tracking.
- Company checks
- Personal checks
How it works
Pre-verify every external company and person before they reach your gate
An automated verification workflow for contractors, visitors, auditors, and drivers that keeps GMP access rules consistent across your sites.
- 01
Start from the blueprint
Company and personal checks are pre-configured. Adjust to your policy, zones, and company types.
- 02
Companies register themselves
Send an invitation link. The external company registers, gets checked automatically, and adds the people it sends.
- 03
Checks run before arrival
People verify identity, upload compliance documents, and complete the site briefing on their phone. Your team only reviews flagged cases.
- 04
Every entry is logged
Every check, source, and timestamp linked to the external person and company. Exportable in one click for audits.
GMP access control
Paper gate logs cannot prove who entered your production zones.
Guards check IDs at the gate. Spreadsheets track training. Neither ties a person to their company, their qualifications, or the zone they were cleared for, especially when subcontractors change week to week.
-
Only fully compliant people enter your site
Every company and worker is pre-verified before arrival. All documents and checks must be complete before access is granted.
-
Physical access disconnected from compliance
Your badge system and your compliance records don't talk to each other. When a certificate expires, nothing automatically stops that person from entering.
Physical access connected to compliance status
Documents monitored continuously. Access blocked the moment company or personal checks no longer pass.
-
Unverified sub-tier contractors
You verify the company you contracted directly. The firms they subcontract often send workers to your gate without the same checks.
Full-chain compliance
Main contractor, sub, and sub-sub. Each must pass company and worker checks before anyone enters your perimeter.
-
Fragmented access records
Spreadsheets, gate notes, and badge lists that do not link a decision to the person, company, and check
Linked audit trails
Every check, source, timestamp, and decision logged to the external person and company, exportable in one click
The pharmaceutical manufacturing blueprint
Automate every compliance check required before site arrival
Pre-clear both the contracting firm and the individual worker before they reach your perimeter. All checks execute automatically long before gate entry.
01 Company Per VAT number
Company checks
Every external company on site. Enter a VAT number and 9ID checks it against official sources, then keeps watching for changes.
- Business registration VAT registration confirmed at the source
- GMP / GDP certificates Quality certificates uploaded by the company, verified, and tracked to expiry
- Sanctions and watchlist screening EU Financial Sanctions, UN Security Council, OFAC, and other official lists, monitored continuously
- Insurance and vendor documents Liability cover and site agreements on file
02 Individuals Per person
Personal checks
Every person the company sends completes their own checks on their phone before they travel to site.
- ID verification ID document verified and matched to the person
- Watchlist screening EU Financial Sanctions, UN Security Council, OFAC, INTERPOL Red Notices, and other official sources
- Compliance certificates Safety, GMP, and site certificates uploaded, verified, and tracked to expiry
- Site briefing Site rules and zone requirements read and confirmed before the first visit
Add checks from the library where your own policy asks for more.
Get StartedInherited permissions
Automatic access revoking when company status changes
Individual access follows the status of the external company. If that company fails a check, access for every worker it sent (contractor, visitor, or driver) is paused instantly. You do not cross-reference spreadsheets to find who works for an unverified employer.
- Continuous monitoring of company status and watchlists
- Access is withdrawn automatically, with no manual check of your badge list
- Instant alerts with root-cause context, keeping teams in control
Zone coverage
One platform for every zone on site
From Grade A cleanrooms to cold storage, each zone gets the pre-screening, credentials, and access rules it requires.
- Grade A–D
Cleanrooms & sterile zones (Grade A–D)
Restrict entry strictly to pre-screened technicians with verified medical clearances and GxP training.
- QC
Quality control & testing labs
Protect analytical data integrity and sensitive testing environments from unverified vendor entry.
- Production
Active production & batch lines
Prevent cross-contamination and unmonitored contractor access around live processing equipment.
- Warehouse
Warehouses & cold storage
Secure active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and finished goods with time-bound credentials.

FAQ
Discover answers to common questions
about 9ID's AI security agent.
Can we set different rules per zone?
Yes. Production, QC, warehouse, and office can each require different documents and training. When someone is assigned to a zone, 9ID applies the matching rules automatically.
Does 9ID replace our access control system?
No. Your badge readers and door controllers stay. 9ID runs company and personal compliance checks first, holds clearance status per zone, and connects to your access control system via API. Only people who pass in 9ID are cleared to badge in. When a check fails or a certificate expires, that status flows through to your badge system automatically.
Can we check GMP and GDP certificates?
Yes. GMP and GDP certificates are collected as uploaded documents, verified on submission and tracked to expiry. The same applies to personal compliance certificates such as GMP training records, safety qualifications, and site-specific certs. Registry checks such as VAT and sanctions screening run automatically against official sources.
What about subcontractors?
You can have a main contractor, subcontractors, and sub-subcontractors. Each company must pass its own checks, and each worker must pass theirs. If any company in the chain fails, its workers cannot enter, even if the firm you contracted directly is compliant.
What happens when a certificate expires?
The worker's status moves to expired. Access is blocked until they renew. Your team gets notified before expiry, not after an auditor finds the gap.
Can we see who is on site right now?
Yes. Live dashboard across sites: who checked in, which zones they are cleared for, and their compliance status.
Does this help during an audit or inspection?
Yes. Every check-in links to the person, their company, the checks that ran, and the result. Export the record instead of pulling paper folders together.
How is personal data handled?
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Access is role-based. Every action is logged. 9ID is GDPR-compliant and certified to ISO 27001 and ISO 27701. A Data Processing Agreement is part of onboarding.
