FDA Compliance 2012 - Validation of Existing/ Legacy Computer Systems for FDA/EU Compliance

This webinar on validating legacy computer systems will give a good understanding of FDA and EU regulatory requirements for validation (retrospective validation) and provide tools for effective implementation.

Why Should You Attend:

When existing or legacy computer systems are used in FDA or equivalent international environments they should be validated, a process sometimes called retrospective validation. While the industry is very well familiar with the validation of new systems, there are many questions about existing or legacy systems.

- Definition of legacy systems and retrospective validation.
- FDA requirements and inspection practices.
- Examples of FDA warning letters.
- Industry recommendations, e.g., from the GAMP.
- Assessment activities, e.g., gap analysis and risk assessment.
- Reviewing and updating the validation master plan for existing systems.
- Going through the validation lifecycles from planning to ongoing tests in routine use.
- Documenting validation results for FDA/EU compliance.
