Requirements for Computerized Systems Validation and Complia
Requirements for Computerized Systems Validation and Compliance
This course, the first in a four-part series, describes regulatory requirements and expectations regarding the validation and compliance of computerized systems used on the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, biologicals, and medical devices. It does not cover the detailed requirements of 21 CFR Part 11, except for the requirement that systems be validated. Even though it draws upon medical device guidance, it is not intended to cover all the requirements of producing software that subsequently becomes part of a medical device.

This course describes the regulatory requirements and expectations for the validation and compliance of computerized systems used in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, biologicals, and medical devices.  Also addressing computerized systems used to:

  • Automate any part of the medical device production process or any part of the device quality system.
  • Manufacture, process, pack, or hold pharmaceuticals.
  • Create, modify, and maintain: A collective term for the regulations known as Good Laboratory Practices, Good Clinical Practices, and Good Manufacturing Practices; these regulations govern the sequential steps employed in the creation, development, and manufacture of new drugs, biologics, and medical devices.
  • Regulated electronic records and manage GxP-regulated electronic signatures.
  • Later courses in this series present an approach to meeting these requirements and address the inspection of computerized systems.
This overview discusses the need for validation requirements to help regulate the extensive use of computerized systems in manufacturing.
