About the event
About this event
The verification and validation of cGMP software is coming under increased scrutiny by the U.S. FDA. This webinar addresses the use of U.S. FDA Guidance, GAMP, 21 CFR Part 11, Electronic Records/Signatures, and other applicable industry software validation models, coupled with the ISO 14971/ICH Q9 Risk Management models and their real-world implementation.
The FDA has eliminated its "selective enforcement" policy and is now looking for proper implementation of the control of electronic records and electronic signatures. Regulatory auditors are increasingly comfortable delving into software issues. This webinar provides simple but effective real-world 21 CFR Part 11 software V&V strategies in today's resource-constrained environment.
