Best Practices to Create FDA Audit Ready Quality Systems

Date: December 20, 2024
Duration: 60 Minutes
Time: 12 PM EST

Non-compliant QC and QA practices form the root of practically all the findings during FDA audits and are the most common reasons for delays in market approval. It is required to control quality of the goods manufactured via robust quality control (QC) and quality assurance (QA) processes. The practices followed by an organization should be described in the Quality Manual (QM), and form the core of the Quality Management System (QMS). Principles of QC and QA are poorly understood by many companies. Many organizations either use the two terms interchangeably, or do not have a clear distinction between the two aspects of quality. The issues are aggravated in resource-limited settings where QC and QA functions are merged and/or performed by the same individuals.​
