Investigations

      Based on real-world experiences, Delphi then, in turn, developed detailed audit checklists for each LCS sub element. These became the basis for most of Delphi's consulting contracts and instruction material.

      Over the course of the next 12 years (2006–2018), the pharmaceutical industry experienced a massive paradigm shift in its business and operational models. This in turn resulted in changes to the manner in which regulatory agencies enforced the GMPs. Some key elements of these changes included:

       Substantial outsourcing of drug development, manufacturing, testing, and other functions

       Offshoring of manufacturing and testing of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug products

       Profit versus quality driven decision making

       Reductions in experienced, permanent workforces

       Increased regulatory activity by US FDA at overseas plants

       Increased Global Regulatory Agency oversight, guidance, and cooperation

      Because of these changes, and other factors, it became obvious that Establishing a CGMP Laboratory Audit System: A Practical Guide had much broader utility than just serving as an audit guide. In particular, the real value of the book over the years has not been as an auditing guide but:

       A means to introduce auality assurance (QA) and QC personnel to the concept of quality systems and the LCS in particular

       As a basis for instructing QA and QC personnel on Laboratory GMPs

       To assist in interpreting and clarifying regulatory expectations for the LCS

       As the basis for assisting laboratory management in implementing and maintaining CGMP compliant practices in their own QC laboratories

      Therefore, the purpose of this new book titled Laboratory Control System Operations in a GMP Environment is to focus on LCS operations versus auditing.

      The goal in writing this book is to publish a text, which when implemented in QC and R&D laboratories, provides the basis for operating a CGMP compliant LCS. This will improve an organization's chances for withstanding regulatory scrutiny and enhance operational efficiency. This new book is designed to be used in several ways, including:

       Designing and implementing a new, from scratch, CGMP compliant LCS

       Upgrading or tweaking an existing LCS

       Laying a basis for initial and periodic LCS GMP training

       Laying a basis for improving operational efficiency

       Serving as an operational reference guide: Third party “sanity” check to help solve compliance challenges as they arise

      1 Laboratory Managerial and Administrative Systems

      2 Laboratory Documentation Practices and Standard Operating Procedures

      3 Laboratory Equipment

      4 Laboratory Facilities

      5 Method Validation and Method Transfer

      6 Laboratory Computer Systems

      7 Laboratory Investigations

      8 Data Governance and Data Integrity*

      9 Stability Program*

      10 General Laboratory Compliance Practices*

      Each chapter in this text describes the critical functions of the LCS sub element so the reader understands what is expected from the FDA and other Global Regulatory Agencies. In addition, each chapter links to tools, templates, checklists, and Global Regulatory Agencies' guidances. All of these tools and templates are accessible for download online through a Wiley Interscience web portal for easy modification and application by the end-user in their own laboratories.

      Readers, in using this book, may accomplish the following:

       Fully implement a functional LCS which can withstand Global Regulatory scrutiny

       Increase operational efficiency

       Stay current with GMPs and industry trends

       Save time by using the real-world tools and templates found in the book, which can be modified and used by the reader

       Use the text as a benchmark reference to which they can assess the status of compliance of their own laboratories

      Laboratory Control System Operations in a GMP Environment is written for a broad audience. It is applicable to both QC and QA professionals in small, medium, and large companies within the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries. R&D personnel working in non-GMP environments will also benefit by applying the organizational schemes and principals presented in this text.

      This book is particularly helpful for personnel who work in smaller companies because they often do not have the financial, personnel resources, and existing “corporate knowledge” that large US- and European-based companies may possess. This means that smaller organizations are often left to “figure it out” on their own. For these smaller operations, this text is particularly valuable because of the example-templates and checklists it includes.
