Why Should You Attend:
FDA inspectors are now being trained to evaluate software validation practices. Increasing use of automated manufacturing and quality systems have increased exposure. Most recalls can be traced back to computerized equipment, exposing the validation process to scrutiny. A third of recent warning letters included citations with respect to improper or ineffective validation. Computerized quality system tracking systems are subject to increased scrutiny during compliance and enforcement actions and hence incomplete software validations are ticking time bombs.

Once the FDA inspectors or Fedral marshalls have arrived, it's time to set up an effective software validation and software quality program - even if those were not the original citations that brought you to FDA's attention. Attend this Webinar if you have received, expect or fear an FDA-483, Warning Letter or Consent Decree. Learn steps that can be done proactively and forward plan to prevent additional software related compliance issues and how to prepare response where citations directly or indirectly include automated system.

• Proactive steps to prevent additional software-related compliance and enforcement problems.
• Response steps where inspection citations directly or indirectly include automated systems.
