cGMP Compliance Technology Audit/Gap Analysis
  • Equipment and Facilities
  • Processes
  • Quality Systems
  • Documentation
  • Organizational Structure
  • Risk assessment
    • Enable companies to determine which qualification/validation/facilities & equipment upgrades are necessary
    • Provide support with the implementation of identified measures.
Development of the Conceptual Design
  • Prerequisite and a guide to prepare technical requirements document (User Requirements Specifications) for economical and functional preparation and implementation of detailed engineering design project for facility and equipment upgrade/retrofit/new construction within the cGMP framework, based on the regulatory Risk assessment and strategic business development plan or analysis
Preliminary Engineering Design
  • Field survey to confirm the layout of architectural system components and mechanical, electrical and plumbing infrastructure.
  • Preparation of material, personnel and equipment flow diagrams for all process areas.
  • Selection and defining utility requirements and Client`s needs associated with new and existing processes and equipment. Preparation of the process equipment list for Client`s review and approval that will form the basis for budgetary equipment costs. Organization (optional) of pre-selection of vendors and a bid process for the equipment to include US, European, Asian and local suppliers.
  • Preparation of Area Classification and Pressurization Plan drawings for each of the processing areas with reference to European Grade levels as appropriate.
  • Preparation room air change rate calculations and development of preliminary HVAC Zoning plans so that the assessments of existing and sizing of new HVAC equipment can be made.
  • Recommendation of the affecting set points for room temperature, humidity and pressurization, as well as acceptable operating, alert and action limits and how these will be monitored and controlled.
  • Preparation of a Validation Master Plan.
