Streamlined Processes

Built on 15+ years of hands-on GMP and BRCGS audit experience. The workflows reflect how audited manufacturers actually operate — not how a generic QMS assumes they do.

The eQMS Built for GMP. Not Pharma.

Cornerstone is the only eQMS designed from the ground up for cosmetics and food manufacturers — covering ISO 22716 GMP, BRCGS Consumer Products Issue 4, and ISO 9001 in a single, connected platform. Unlike systems repurposed from life sciences or pharma, Cornerstone reflects the specific workflows, evidence requirements, and audit pressures of your sector. With unlimited users, built-in HACCP, production control, and full batch traceability, it replaces multiple disconnected tools without the complexity or cost of enterprise alternatives.

Solution 1

Everything Your QMS Needs. Nothing You Don't.

Audit Management

Complete audit trails recording who created, reviewed, approved, and issued every document. Pass unannounced BRCGS inspections without the scramble.

Nonconformance Control

Log complaints, raise CAPA, assign root cause, and track to closure — every step timestamped and attributed for auditors.

Competence Management

Training schedules, records, competency assessments, and expiry alerts — connected directly to your production and HR workflows.

Stock & Inventory Management

Bills of materials, vulnerability assessments, MRP, and full batch and location traceability. Cornerstone users report stock accuracy above 97%.

Risk Management

HACCP plans, HARA decision trees, glass and brittle material registers, and risk matrices — built in, not bolted on.

Supplier Management

Onboard, approve, and monitor every supplier — with expiry alerts and performance records so you always know who you're buying from.

Document Warehouse

Controlled document issue, version history, acknowledgement tracking, and procedure generation. No more emailing PDFs and hoping the right people saw the update.

Production Control

Works orders, in-process checks, weights and measures compliance, and batch traceability — connected to stock, MRP, and quality workflows.

Task Management & Workflows

Every action — from a complaint to a management review — generates a tracked, attributed task. Nothing falls through the cracks.

Replace your disconnected tools.

Cornerstone replaces multiple disconnected tools — spreadsheets, shared drives, email chains — with one unified, auditable compliance platform. Nonconformances, supplier approvals, training records, and production batch data all live in one place, connected and traceable. When the auditor arrives, your evidence is a click away — not an archaeological dig.

The Complete eQMS

Most QMS platforms charge per user. At 15 users, competitors cost three to four times more per month than a Cornerstone subscription — for a platform that was not built for your standards. Cornerstone includes unlimited users at every level. Your team grows; your licence cost stays the same. One subscription. No per-seat shock.

Dynamic task management

Tasks are created automatically throughout Cornerstone against any compliance event — meetings, inspections, nonconformances, supplier reviews, or management actions. Every task is assigned to a named person, carries a due date, and is fully auditable. No more chasing actions over email and hoping someone remembers.
