pharmaceutical validation 2017 - Lessons Learned in Computer System Validation: A Project Manager’s Perspective - By AtoZ Compliance

Key Take Away:
This pharmaceutical validation training reviews the requirements for computer validation, including the industry-accepted collection of documentation which constitutes a validation package.
Overview:
Computer system validation (sometimes called computer validation or CSV) is the process of documenting that a computer system meets a set of defined system requirements. Validation of computer systems to ensure accuracy, reliability, consistent intended performance, and the ability to discern invalid or altered records is a critical requirement of electronic record compliance, as described in the FDA 21 CFR 11.10(a) and EMA Annex 11, Section 4.
The webinar will discuss user requirements, functional specifications and design specifications, requirement traceability, risk assessment, creating appropriate testing protocols, summary reports, and how to maintain your validated systems, skewed towards the information a Project Manager needs to develop an executable project plan.
Why Should You Attend:
Every pharmaceutical manufacturing facility utilizes Computer Systems, and for a Project Manager, these systems may be foreign to them. Even though there is a saturation of training on what Computer System Validation is, there is little training for a Project Manager to discover what the key elements of a project plan MUST be to support a successful project completion. Countless hours are wasted explaining PLC and HMI and how procedural controls are important to their use, as well as software and hardware requirements. The lessons learned in this webinar are intended to help a Project Manager (or anyone involved with capital projects) to recognize, address and mitigate those real risks associated with computer system validation, the NUMBER ONE cause of schedule slippage on many projects.
