GullySystem
Manufacturing · Nutraceutical Manufacturer Management Software

One system for formulas, ingredient lots, batch records and supplement labels.

Brand-owner orders, formulas, certificates of analysis, assay-adjusted dispensing, batch records, heavy metal and microbial results, allergen changeovers, labels and dispatch all live in one place. Each finished lot of capsules, tablets, powders or gummies names the extract lots inside it and the tests it passed. Lot codes print from the record. Batch files are ready on request.

  • Formulas, brand owners and label versions are recorded in the form you use now, with your own product names and your own approval steps kept intact
  • Orders in hand, ingredient stock and certificates are brought over before go-live, then compared line by line with your shelf and your folders
  • Later edits to batch sheets and release rules are done for you by GullySystem staff when your formulation or quality head asks

Makers of supplement capsules, tablets, powders and gummies run formulas, ingredient lots and batch records in one system, for their own brands and for private-label customers. Dispensing weights follow each extract’s assay. Allergen clean-downs, test results and best-before dates are recorded against every lot, with the plant’s own limits and sign-off steps entered at set-up.

Where it breaks today

What goes wrong before the software.

Extract assay changes but the recipe does not

Every lot of botanical extract assays at its own strength, yet the recipe sheet still shows one weight, so the finished capsule drifts from its label claim. The drift surfaces at the retained-sample test, if at all.

Supplier certificates are filed by date

Certificates of analysis for each extract, vitamin and mineral lot sit in a drawer or shared folder. When a brand owner wants the heavy metals result on one lot, someone searches by shipment date. Nobody finds it quickly.

Private-label formulas drift between copies

Several brands order near-identical blends of ashwagandha or magnesium glycinate with small changes. Versions are copied between spreadsheets until an old one goes into a new customer’s order unnoticed.

Allergen clean-down is on paper

A line that ran a soy blend must be cleaned before a free-from product, but the sign-off sheet hangs on a clipboard and the next batch can start unchecked.

Lot code and date are matched by eye

The label version, lot code and best-before date are checked by eye at the labelling table, and a wrong date is usually found by the retailer. That is an expensive way to learn.

Test results arrive after the lot has moved

Heavy metal and microbial results return from an outside laboratory days later, by which time the lot may already be on a pallet. A failing result then means unwrapping cartons.

How it runs

How the work flows through it, step by step.

  1. 1

    Order and formula

    A brand owner’s order is matched to a formula version and its approved label, while a new product opens as a development record. No batch runs until the owner approves.

  2. 2

    Ingredient receipt

    Extracts, vitamins and excipients arrive by lot with certificates, and samples go for identity and potency tests. Each lot sits in quarantine until the results clear it for the dispensing room.

  3. 3

    Dispensing and blending

    Dispensing weights come from each extract’s assay. Weighing, blending and granulation are signed in the batch record against named equipment and operators, so the file builds itself as the shift works.

  4. 4

    Forming and filling

    Capsules are filled, tablets pressed or powders packed, with in-process weight, hardness and disintegration checks at the line, and allergen clean-downs are signed before changeover. The clean-down comes first.

  5. 5

    Test and release

    Finished lot results are read against the specification. Any lot with a failed assay or a micro result still pending stays on quality hold. Release is a signed entry that shows who approved it and when.

  6. 6

    Labelling and dispatch

    Lot codes and best-before dates print from the record onto the approved label, and cartons, packing list and invoice go to the brand owner. The batch file follows.

Modules

What is inside.

Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.

Formulas and versions

Store each formula with its version history, label claim and allowed substitutions, so only the approved version can open a new batch and older versions stay readable for audit.

Brand-owner accounts

Keep private-label customers apart, each with its own formulas, label approvals and orders, even when the base blends are alike and the same operator runs both on one granulator.

Ingredient lots and certificates

Receive extracts, vitamins and excipients by lot with the certificate of analysis and assay attached. Expiry and quarantine status show on the shelf list, so a picker sees them at the rack.

Assay-adjusted dispensing

Calculate extract weights from the lot assay so that the batch meets its label claim, and print the dispensing sheet from that figure for the operator at the balance.

Batch manufacturing records

Sign blending, granulation, encapsulation, tablet pressing and filling steps with operator, equipment and weights, and reconcile yield against the theoretical quantity before the batch is closed. Every loss stays on the record.

Allergen and clean-down control

Flag allergens by formula and require a signed clean-down between incompatible products, so that a batch cannot start on a line nobody has cleared. Soy and milk lines are the usual cases.

Laboratory and outside test results

Record identity, potency, heavy metal and microbial results, including those from outside laboratories, and let a missing or failing result hold the lot until quality decides its fate. Nothing ships by default.

Label and lot code control

Match each batch to its approved label version and print the lot code and best-before date from the record, so the bottle carries the right text. Nobody types it.

Retained samples and stability

Log retained samples by lot with shelf location and discard date, and schedule stability pulls for products on a shelf-life study with a reminder before each one falls due.

Dispatch and invoices

Pack to the order with lot details and print the packing list, then issue the invoice in the brand owner’s currency, applying that customer’s tax rules to each line. Totals match the order.

Solutions inside

The business modules it is built from.

Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.

  • Bill of Materials

    Each formula lists its ingredients and quantities per batch size, and only the approved version can open a new batch of capsules, tablets or powder.

  • Contact & Account Management

    Every brand owner has its own record of formulas, label approvals and orders, kept apart from other private-label customers even when the blends look alike.

  • Batch and Serial Tracking

    Extract, vitamin and excipient lots are received with certificates and assay figures, and each finished lot names the ingredient lots that went into it.

  • Quality Control

    Identity, potency, heavy metal and microbial results are read against the specification, and a missing or failing result holds the lot until quality decides.

  • Work Order Management

    A batch order is released to a line with its steps, operators and equipment, and each signed step builds the batch file as the shift works.

  • Workflow and Approvals

    A signed clean-down must precede any product that is incompatible with the last one, and an uncleared line blocks the next batch from starting.

  • Barcodes and Labels

    Lot codes and best-before dates print from the batch record on the approved label version, and scanning the label confirms that it matches the batch.

  • Stock Tracking and Alerts

    Retained samples are listed with shelf location and discard date, and stability pulls raise a reminder before they fall due on the study calendar.

Services

How we would put it in.

Setup, data migration, integrations and anything built on top.

Who uses it

One system, each person sees their part.

For plant managers

Open one page at shift start. It lists batches running, lots on quality hold, labels waiting for owner approval and orders due, grouped by brand owner.

For formulation and development staff

Keep formulas and their versions, set the overage rules for each extract and carry new products through owner approval. Every edit stamps the formula record with an author and a date.

For production and packing operators

Open the batch record and read the dispensing sheet. Sign each step, then confirm the label and lot code at the line before the first carton is packed, with the sheet in hand.

For quality and laboratory staff

Review supplier certificates, key in test results, log allergen clean-downs and decide whether a lot is released or held, with the reasoning kept on the lot.

For brand-owner contacts

View their own orders, approve label changes and download batch files for their products, while every other brand stays out of sight.

Reports

The numbers the owner asks for.

  • Lots by status: in process, on hold, released
  • Ingredient lots with potency, expiry and balance
  • Yield and loss by product and line
  • Out-of-limit results by test and supplier
  • Label approvals pending by brand owner
  • Allergen changeovers signed and outstanding
  • Retained samples due for discard
Good fit

Who this is built for.

  • Plants that make capsules, tablets, powders and gummies for supplement brands, including those that fill softgels bought in as shells
  • Contract nutraceutical manufacturers serving several private-label customers
  • Producers of botanical extracts blended into finished products
  • Makers of sports nutrition and protein powders
  • Brands that own a plant and sell direct to consumers as well as through pharmacies and retailers
Honest answer

When it is not the right choice.

  • A shop that only resells finished supplements needs stock and sales tools. Batch records would be wasted on it.
  • A pharmaceutical plant with sterile products, cleanroom gowning and parenteral filling will find the pharmaceutical manufacturer product closer to its needs.
Made to fit

Adapted to your business before it goes live.

You are not handed a login and left to it. The product is set up around your records, your people and the tools you already use.

Formulas and label claims

Your formula list, label claims and substitution rules go in first, so that batches open against real products from the opening day and not against samples.

Assay rules

Potency adjustments for each extract are keyed in with your formulation staff. Trial batches then test them, and the computed dispensing weights are checked on the balance against the sheet.

Specifications and tests

Test names, limits and reports from outside laboratories mirror how you release a lot today, with your quality head signing off the list before it is used.

Opening data migrated

Orders in hand and ingredient stock are imported, and the certificate files in your shared folders are attached to their lots in bulk.

Currency and tax

Each brand owner’s currency and tax rules are set from its country and checked during implementation against one real invoice from each customer.

Common questions

Questions owners ask before a demo.

Does the dispensing sheet change when the extract lot changes?

It does. The sheet reads the assay of the lot being dispensed and recalculates the weight, so the same recipe delivers the same label claim from different lots of extract.

Can I keep each brand owner’s products private?

Yes. Every brand owner sees only its own formulas, labels and batch files, while staff with plant-wide logins can see all of them side by side when comparing blends.

How are allergens controlled between products?

Allergens are flagged on each formula. A batch that follows an incompatible product cannot start until the line’s clean-down has been signed by the person responsible for that line.

What if an outside laboratory is slow?

Results can be entered when they arrive. Until then the lot shows as awaiting a result and stays held, so nothing ships by mistake while the outside laboratory catches up.

Can the label text be checked against the batch?

The lot code and best-before date print from the batch record onto the approved label version, and a different label version cannot be chosen once the batch is open.

Does it manage stability studies?

It schedules stability pulls and records results for products on a shelf-life study, with the dates held against each retained sample. Shelf-life decisions stay with your quality staff.

How would a brand owner download a batch file?

A login for the brand owner opens the batch file for its own products, and what that file includes is agreed with your quality head beforehand.

What happens to the spreadsheets we keep today?

Formulas, ingredient stock and customers are loaded during set-up, and certificate files are linked to their lots in bulk once the shared folders have been sorted by supplier.

What decides the cost for a supplement plant?

Product lines, logins for laboratory and packing staff and brand-owner accounts set the scope. You see one of your own formulas running on screen before anyone quotes a figure.

Who changes the batch sheets later?

GullySystem staff edit sheets, rules and label layouts when asked. Your formulation or quality head signs off before a change reaches the floor, so nothing goes live unreviewed.
