Module: Autonomous Change Control for Regulated Bioscience


The One-Liner

CODITECT is the first AI-agent platform that makes change control autonomous for regulated bioscience — turning a 6-week manual compliance process into a 6-hour orchestrated workflow.


Problem (Pain Quantified)

Pain PointCurrent StateData Point
Manual change control15–40 hours per change recordIndustry benchmark: ~$2,500–$8,000 fully loaded cost per change
Compliance failures23% of FDA 483 observations cite inadequate change controlFDA FY2024 inspection data
Disconnected toolsAvg. bioscience QMS stack = 4.7 separate toolsGreenlight Guru/MasterControl customer surveys
Audit preparation80–120 hours per regulatory auditIndustry average for mid-market biotech
Vendor coordination30% of change cycle time is waiting on vendor documentationWO system analysis (Appendix A scenario)
Agent-driven changes0 tools exist for AI agent change controlCompetitive analysis — greenfield

Cost of Inaction

A mid-market biotech (200 employees, 50 validated systems) processes ~200–400 change records/year:

Solution

What CODITECT's WO Module Does

  1. Autonomous Orchestration — AI agents decompose a Master Work Order into task-level Linked WOs, assign resources, schedule execution, and coordinate vendors — automatically.

  2. Structural Compliance — Change control is database-enforced (append-only audit trails, immutable signatures, state machine guards), not policy-based. Agents cannot bypass compliance because the architecture prevents it.

  3. Intelligent Routing — Model router selects Opus for compliance decisions, Sonnet for complex logic, Haiku for boilerplate — delivering 40–60% token cost reduction while maintaining audit-grade quality.

  4. Hierarchical Change Control — Master/Linked WO hierarchy maps real-world change processes (e.g., Win10→Win11 lab upgrade = 1 Master + 6 Linked WOs with dependencies).
