Just what does FDA GMP PART 11 requirements apply to: It has become obvious to all persons who use any IT facility; that electronic data is extremely easy and simple to
manipulate or corrupt, either knowingly or unknowingly. The regulation protects predicate rule information from such corruption, and is designed and enforced to give assurance of the integrity of all such data.
Validation
protocols such as DQ,
IQ,
OQ,
PQ,
along with the associated VMP,
URS,
VRA,
and VP can be prepared electronically, however they are completed by hand and are manually signed and reviewed, and as such; are not required to comply with FDA GMP Part 11 procedures.
Full Life Cycle validation (FLCV), including FDA GMP Part 11 requirements are portrayed visually in the diagram below. In this diagram the standard requirements are shown in BLUE boxes whereas the additional requirements for Full Life Cycle Validation (FLCV) are shown in ORANGE boxes. This layout is not definitive, and reasoned alternatives work just as well. The whole concept is that the software design must be planned, managed, and subjected to documented reviews throughout the entire design stage. All of this must be laid out in the QUALITY PLAN (QP), which must be a peer reviewed and company approved document. Without a QP being in place, it is almost impossible to achieve satisfactory FLCV. If these requirements are rigorously applied, it becomes impossible to achieve retrospectively, and inhibits the use of commercial off the shelf software (COTS). We know that some COTS software has, and is, used in a number of Product Quality Critical (PQC) software systems. The judgment whether a COTS system can or cannot be used is fraught.
On the 21st of October 2005 the US Federal Court decision against FDA in the Utah Medical case. Once and for all affirmed (among other things) that FDA may not adopt "industry standards" as "current" Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP's) by fiat or Guidance. In order to be an action-able item, the any practice or procedure must be specifically mandated within CFR's.......Actual Court Case.
FDA GMP PART 11 Requirements and FLCV
How do you adapt procedures and processes for www.21cfrpart11.com?
One of three approaches can be used by organizations to address the on-going FDA GMP PART 11 requirements regulations throughout the pharmaceutical and medical devices industries.
Paper.
The full FDA GMP Part 11 regulation still permits the full submission of paper-based documentation. The issues with this approach include high costs, decreased quality, information storage availability, information retrieval ability, and the general portability of information.
Partial Electronic.
The regulation allows for the electronic records to be stored as equivalent to paper records with handmade signatures executed. This approach requires a large amount of printed documentation that carries the same risks and challenges as a full-paper approach; mentioned above, regarding complacency with the regulations
Electronic.
This is the real intent of the FDA GMP PART 11 requirements regulatory requirements. This approach increases product quality, saves money with automation of processes, establishes easy data storage and retrieval, provides ease data analysis and reporting, increases the portability of information, and diminishes or eliminates human error.
Defined FDA-21-CFR-Part-11-requirements.
What content will be in the new FDA GMP PART 11 requirement? Most end users feel that it will be patterned after the ‘Scope and application’ document, though with more emphasis on ‘how’ compliance can be achieved, and less on ‘what’ requirements must be satisfied.
FDA will more than likely defer to the predicate rules on most matters. And it will make significant concessions on having an audit trail for all systems. “Likely, they will simply remove the section in the current FDA GMP PART 11 requirements requirements for the audit trail,”
At a minimum, manufacturers might have to have a risk matrix for their computer systems. This includes an understanding of how systems impact risk to patients, and regulatory risk.
The full requirements as detailed in the current FDA GMP PART 11 will more than likely still be a requirement for data produced by electronic manufacturing controls for high-risk systems — such as quality controls for the release or rejection of product. These will still require you to have to have a validated system and ensure an audible backup.
Define the criticality of each record and, even more important, look at the entire life of a record from its origin to archiving. Identify steps where adulteration is possible and make sure these systems have an electronic audit trail built in.

Validation Risk Assessment (Issue 11) $125.00
Risk Mitigation in Validation template (Issue 11) $125.00 The Risk and Part 11 Validation Risk Assessment(VRA) protocol is becoming the most important document in the validation online train. The VRA reassures the regulators that you have looked at specific equipment functionality and considered the appropriate level of validation that is required. You have also considered various aspects of its use and the implications of any malfunctions. From the results of this exercise the scope of all validation activity can and must be justified. This is a robust and simple to execute document, one that will lead you through the process and deliver a result that can be used as the foundation for your Risk Mitigation in Validation template.
This VRA now includes the assessment table for categorizing and documenting the new 21 CFR Part 11 guidance ruling on what predicate data must be stored in a Part compliant system, along with the new broadsheet to establish your new database of part 11 records. (now mandatory).
Combined IQ-OQ-PQ Computer (Issue-4) $159.00
This Pharmaceutical Validation combination protocol has been produced in response to several hundred reader suggestions we received in our ‘Suggestions Section’. It has been carefully designed to make it the preferred choice for Process and Laboratory stand alone equipment and associated standard operating procedure TEMPLATE. The associated medical device validation Master Plan template is interactive, easy to use and suitable for all mixes of equipment with and without software. Where temperature mapping is required it will included in this section. This of course may well be a Risk Mitigation in Validation risk Assessment template. As per 21 CFR Part 11.
The Installation Qualification Template or IQ section establishes documented verification that all medical device validation template online executables are catered for and that key aspects of the equipment Qualification adhere to approved design Qualification template and the recommendations of the manufacturer have been suitably considered. The Operational Qualification Template section establishes that there is documented verification that the installed system functions as specified and that there is sufficient documented process validation A executables to demonstrate this. The PQ section develops documented evidence that all the requirements specified in your corporate validation 4U manual have been verified as operating consistently and exactly as specified in the medical device validation template; The User Requirements Specification template
