online webinar 2019 - Compliant Management Controls Under 21 CFR 820 and ISO 13485

Overview
The top management of a company is responsible for ensuring that all regulatory requirements are met. This concept is codified in both the QSR and ISO 13485. FDA officials have repeatedly stated that the management controls subsystem is the central subsystem because it is the "glue that holds the quality system together."
Since it is individuals in top management that the FDA will typically seek to fine or prosecute in the event of major noncompliance, this session is a key for those individuals who are members of top management, or those regulatory professionals who need to understand these requirements to assure top management is fulfilling its responsibilities.
This session will discuss the requirements for management controls, including organizational structure, internal audits and establishment of a quality policy. It will also discuss the steps to confirm whether the requirements are being followed, establishment and contents of a quality system and quality plan, and all aspects of management reviews.

Management controls is much more than merely management review. Many more systems must be in place to assure your firm is in compliance with the regulations.
