On-line Audio Seminar 321
Integrated Analytical Equipment
Qualification and System Validation for FDA Compliance
Combining the USP <1058> with the new
GAMP(TM) Laboratory Computer Systems Guide
Recorded, available with all reference material
at any time

Analytical laboratory equipment and computer systems are amongst key targets of
FDA inspections. They are considered high risk systems because they can have a
high impact on product quality. Validation can be a challenge because laboratory
instruments become more and more complex and automated. In the past there was no
specific guidance on how to combine analytical instrument qualification with
system validation. This has changed. The USP Chapter <1058> on "Analytical
Instrument Qualification" is focused on equipment qualification and the new
GAMP/ISPE Good Practice Guide "Risk based Approach to GxP Compliant Laboratory
Computerized System" is more focused on automated systems. Both USP and
GAMP/ISPE are important FDA references but unfortunately the concepts are
different. So the question is: how to integrate?
Key Questions related to integrated analytical instruments and laboratory
systems are:
- What are FDA and international requirements for analytical
instrument qualification and laboratory computer system
validation?
- What are the approaches of the USP and GAMP for automated
laboratories?
- What are similarities and what are differences?
- What is the regulatory impact of both guids?
- Which one should we follow: the USP 4Q life-cycle model of
the GAMP combined integration/system development model?
- Is there a practical model, that can accommodate both?
- There is a lot of discussion about qualification vs.
verification: what to do?
- What are the industry recommendations and practices for new
and existing systems?
- Can we conduct equipment qualification by ourselves or
should must vendor do it?
- If we do it by ourselves do we need to get trained from the
vendor?
- If the equipment is repaired during warrantee period who
pays for requalification: the vendor or the user firm?
- What do the guides say about risk based testing abd how to
implement?
- What exactly are the defined instrument and system
categories and what should we test and document for each
category?
- We have heard that there was a proposal for an updated more
complex USP <1058>, what is the status?
How does the audio seminar help:
Answers will be presented by Dr. Ludwig Huber in a new
interactive audio seminar. During the seminar, the speaker will
present strategies and give practical recommendations on how to
effectively comply with both. After the seminar, an extensive list
of reference material like SOPs, templates and examples will help
immediate and cost effective implementation.
During the interactive presentation you learn about:
- FDA and EU requirements for analytical automated laboratory
systems - What do inspectors ask and what documents should be
available.
- Most frequently cited deviations related to laboratory
equipment and computers.
- The role of GAMP(TM) and USP for the FDA and international
agencies
- Getting clarification of on the terminology: what to verify,
qualify and validate
- The approach of both guides
- Similarities and differences of both guides
- Presenting a model that accommodates both
- Easy identification of high, medium and low risk instruments
and systems
- Reducing validation efforts through leveraging vendor
documentation
- Savings through risk based testing
- The anticipated future of both guides
- Case studies: recommendations for 3 systems in different
categories
- life cycle deliverables
- vendor assessment
- testing before and during operation
- documentation requirements and examples
