Application of This Text

      The remainder of “Laboratory Control System Operations in a GMP Environment” is dedicated to describing the critical functions of the LCS sub elements so the reader understands what is expected from the FDA and the Global Regulatory Agencies listed earlier. In addition, each chapter will present or link to tools, templates, checklists, and some of the Global Regulatory Agencies' guidance listed previously.

It should be noted that text is written for a broad audience. It is applicable to both Quality Control and Quality Assurance professionals in small, medium, and large companies within the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries. R&D personnel working in non-GMP environments will also benefit applying the organizational schemes and principals presented in this text.¹ Also, foreign firms in China and India will find this book especially useful.

      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 a large US- and European-based company may have and are therefore often left to “figure it out” on their own. In this respect the guide is particularly valuable in the example-templates and checklists it includes.

Overlap and Redundancy

      As the reader progresses through this text, they will notice that some topics, notes, and clarifications are addressed more than once and in different locations within the book. This was done by the author on purpose to ensure that important topics are addressed appropriately and reinforced.

      Additionally, the QC laboratory is a very complex and dynamic entity, which continually grows and evolves over time. This means that the 10 sub elements into with the LCS is divided (which is purely a matter of choice on the part of the author) can be reduced, modified, or expanded to address changes within the organization and the evolution of Regulatory Agency expectations and standard industry practices. This is why there is a “C” in CGMP: C means current, which is today, not yesterday.

2 Components of the Laboratory Managerial and Administrative Systems Sub Element (MS)

      Description of the Laboratory Managerial and Administrative Systems Sub Element

      The Laboratory Managerial and Administrative Systems are those sub elements that provide the infrastructure for efficient and compliant operations of an analytical laboratory. It is sometimes difficult to directly relate items within this sub element to the Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMPs). However, deficiencies within this sub element, which cannot be directly attributed to the CGMPs, can lead to compliance failures. For example, 21 CFR Sections 210 and 211 do not specifically require that someone be assigned the duties of training manager. However, failing to have an individual responsible for training and consequently not having an effective training program can degrade the overall quality of data that is generated by laboratory personnel, and US Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) has cited companies for not having a training program for laboratory personnel [1].

      The Laboratory Managerial and Administrative Systems sub element includes at least six individual topics. A laboratory that is in compliance with CGMPs should at least address each of these topics (as applicable). These topics include (i) Organizational Structure and Roles and Responsibilities, (ii) Training and Qualification, (iii) Laboratory Budgeting, Purchasing, and Requisition, (iv) Laboratory Administration and Operations, (v) Laboratory Chemicals, Solutions, Reagents and Supplies, and (vi) Laboratory Reference Standards and Solutions.

      These six topics are listed within the text of the chapter along with some suggestions on
