Description
GMP requirements for management of Deviations and Non-Conformances
Deviations and Non-Conformances (GMP regulations and documentation requirements)
- Deviations and Non-Conformances must be managed according to GMP regulations.
- GMP requirements include (but are not limited to) documenting the deviation, ensuring deviation documentation is included in batch records to ensure full batch traceability, and thoroughly investigating deviations/non-conformance incidents for ‘root cause’ to determine if a CAPA needs to be initiated.
Product Quality Reviews (PQRs) must also include a review of the effectiveness of the deviation management systems and CAPA systems.
- This newly-released Deviation Management Training Course (Deviations and Non-Conformances) will help you understand what’s required of all GMP personnel when a deviation is discovered.
- No matter how minor the deviation is considered to be, these must be documented and properly risk-assessed, or you’ll be incurring product quality safety risks (patient harms) and potential future recalls.
