Drug Quality Systems and Audits
The implementation and management of a validated QMS requires significant resources that small and emerging life science companies may not be able to obtain. Partnering with CSSi LifeSciences offers a cost-effective QMS solution.
We also regularly update your QMS in accordance with new and established FDA guidances or client related changes to processes, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), or Corrective Action and Preventive Action (CAPA) programs.
Most small and emerging pharmaceutical companies begin by relying on their service providers’ (e.g., CDMO, CMO, preclinical CRO, clinical CRO) Quality Management Systems (QMS). This approach is acceptable during the initial phases of drug development and into first in human (FIH) trials. As a company develops its first product beyond FIH clinical trials and becomes a later stage clinical company, health authorities expect the company to develop their own in-house QMS. While a virtual drug development company does not need a full 21 CFR Part 210, 211 system, certain elements are expected.
CSSi LifeSciences can assist with establishing a QMS for:
- SOPs
- Vendor selection and qualification
- Vendor questionnaires
- Vendor audits
- Supplier management and supply agreements
- Quality Management organizational structure
- Training
- Document control
- Change management
- Nonconformance
- Deviation management
- Quality Agreements
- Process mapping and improved risk management
- Inspection audit preparedness
- Packaging and labeling
- CAPA services
- Quality manual and policy
CSSi LifeSciences also provides vendor qualification audits, FDA Pre-inspection audits, clinical site audits, and best practices to prepare for and manage an FDA or other health authority audit.
Let CSSi LifeSciences evaluate your QMS system or requirements and provide strategic guidance and support.
