Abstract

Increasing levels of Validation activities and higher regulatory expectations across laboratory processes are increasing the demand for compliant Validation services. 

The laboratory process for equipment management and status tracking is a manual paper based process, with the following issues:

  • High level of effort/ time to create, execute and maintain lab Validation records i.e. requirements, protocols, test scripts, risk assessments, trace matrices
  • Cross lab and cross sites inconsistences
  • No real time viewable lab equipment/ systems status index
  • No standardized/ structured new equipment process templates/ workflows
  • No efficient process to leverage previous information for current tasks
  • No best practice across projects and sites
  • Accurate Metrics not available
  • Cumbersome record storage and retrieval
  • Limited visibility both globally and across sites
  • Data integrity concerns i.e. ALCOA principles

Session Learning

Using an actual client example the workshop will explain:

  • from existing paper to a future e-validation solution and the steps to justify, plan implement a lab e-validation system
  • Streamline and structured process to identify/ track/ quality new equipment.
  • Comprehensive dashboard with visibility to real-time data for lab equipment & systems
  • Ability to share and leverage information across labs/ sites
  • Ensure compliance with data integrity requirements
  • Provide easy controlled lab records e-access and user friendly metrics
  • Ability to verify user training before equipment/ system use
