Answers to specific questions, e.g. on source code review or on creating specification documents
The opportunity to bring questions from your own practice up for discussion
Background
Leveraging Suppliers: Recognising the potential savings and flexibility available, regulated companies are increasingly withdrawing from ‘in-house’ developed solutions and looking to their external suppliers to provide them with innovative and compliant products and services which fulfil their operational and business needs.
The EU-GMP Annex 11 on Computerised Systems states that ‘the competence and reliability of a supplier are key factors when selecting a product or service provider’; ‘Leveraging Supplier Involvement’ is also one of the 5 key concepts of the GAMP®5 guidance ‘A Risk-Based Approach to Compliant GxP Computerized Systems’.
This course aims to provide attendees with the knowledge, and opportunities to practice the skills required, to achieve successful partnerships with their IS/IT suppliers and to improve
Computerised System Validation Master Class:
The V-model has become a standard worldwide methodology for the validation of computerised systems. Regulatory requirements, as well as industry guidelines, like GAMP®5 2nd Edition, are orientated towards this model. In practice, you as a validation specialist will want to know how to apply this model to current and increasingly complex validation projects.
