Also the role of the individual V&V plan, and different protocols; how to employ equipment / process DQs, IQs, OQs, and PQs, or their equivalents, against a background of limited company resources. The models presented simplifies "as-product", in-product", process and equipment, et al, software VT&V, assuring key FDA requirements are not overlooked. V&V of a company's QMS and 21 CFR Part 11 are considered.

Why Should You Attend

FDA Warning Letters and high-profile recalls indicate major cGMP deficiencies in device and pharma companies on both sides of the Atlantic. One major failing is lack of sufficient or targeted risk-based V&V planning. And confusion over what the terms "risk-based", V & V,and other terms really mean. A review of Internet forums shows confusion as to what is risk and what is V&V planning. What is the VMP and the individual V&V plan and their formats and roles. What are the "must have" elements from ISO 14971 and ICH Q9 for hazard analysis and product risk management? How can these be integrated? Mandatory risk for Software / firmware V&V.
