Best Practices for Equipment Validation, Tracking, Calibration, and Preventive Maintenance
- Types of Validation
- The Validation Sequence
- Installation Qualification
- Operation Qualification
- Performance Qualification
- Equipment Calibration: Frequency and How to Reduce It
- Understanding of Calibration Traceability
- Use of Calibration Standards for Efficiency and Accuracy
- Benefits of Equipment Calibration Outsourcing
- Calibration Remediation Requirements
Overview of the webinar
FDA and EU regulations require that firms have a program for the calibration and maintenance of test and measurement equipment. The program must include: intervals, scheduling, specific procedures, limits of accuracy/precision, and remedial action in the event that the equipment does not meet established requirements. Prior to use, however, this equipment must be validated to make sure it produces product that meets its specifications. There are ways, though, to validate equipment already in use.
This session will review the regulatory requirements for validation, including detailed review of IQ, OQ, and PQ. A sample validation process will be followed through each phase. Documentation requirements for both protocol and results will be reviewed, as well as a list of pitfalls to avoid in documenting your validation. The importance of the Master Validation Plan will be discussed to. Preventive maintenance will be covered, including how to assure it does not adversely impact validated processes. A cost-effective equipment calibration program will be featured as well.
Who should attend?
This webinar will provide valuable assistance to all personnel involved in equipment/process development:
- QA Management
- Quality Engineering Staff
- R&D Management
- Engineering Management
- Production Management
- Manufacturing Engineering Staff
- Design Engineers
- Reliability Engineers
- Calibration Technicians
- Maintenance Personnel
Why should you attend?
Medical devices and pharmaceutical products must be safe and effective. Equipment used in assembly, test, or measurement must be able to be used for its intended purpose, and result in product that meets its required specifications. It is not cost effective to routinely measure product to evaluate conformance to all specifications. It is, therefore, critical to have an in depth understanding of the methods for establishing equipment and corresponding processes that assure product output on a routine basis.
