Case Study: Wellington Foods achieves scalability, 90–100% fewer data errors and 72‑hour post‑production reviews with MasterControl

Wellington Foods - Customer Case Study

Wellington Foods is a Corona, CA–based contract manufacturer of liquid and powder dietary supplements with 150+ employees that faced rapid growth and an increasingly unwieldy paper-based quality system. The manual processes caused frequent data-entry errors, long post-production reviews, poor visibility for managers and customers, and risked noncompliance with FDA (CFR Part 111) and other regulations.

Wellington implemented MasterControl’s cloud platform — including electronic batch records (EBR) and the VxT validation tool — to centralize documentation, enforce data limits and training, and enable real-time production visibility. The change delivered right-first-time production, cut shop-floor data errors by 90–100%, reduced post-production review from 10–15 days to about 72 hours, halved paperwork headcount, and sped time-to-market while improving regulatory traceability and customer transparency.
