MasterControl

MasterControl is a Salt Lake City based software company that builds cloud quality management (QMS) and manufacturing execution (MES) software for regulated industries, primarily life sciences — pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, CRO/CDMO, and food and beverage manufacturers. Its platform spans document control, training, CAPA, change control, audit, supplier quality, electronic batch records, and production records, and is built to support FDA 21 CFR Part 11, EU MDR, GDPR and HIPAA obligations. MasterControl exposes RESTful APIs for its Qx (Quality Excellence) and Mx (Manufacturing Excellence) products through a separately licensed API Toolkit, used to integrate the quality system with ERP, CRM, MES, PDM and document repositories; the API reference is published as a Swagger UI inside each customer tenant rather than on a public developer portal.

MasterControl publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Quality Management, Manufacturing, Life Sciences, and Compliance.

MasterControl’s developer surface includes documentation, support, engineering blog, pricing, and 10 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/mastercontrol: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you?

  detail: MasterControl's Qx and Mx REST reference is a Swagger UI served only from inside a paying customer's own tenant
    (https://mx.<region>.svc.mastercontrol.com/<company>/swagger-ui/index.html) and requires a separately purchased API license,
    so the host root and every anonymous spec path on the live Mx service host return 404.
