The resulting feedback was incorporated in the final version. Although the document is primarily addressed to inspectors, it is of course of interest to all pharmaceutical manufacturers. The document came into force on 1 July 2021.
With its remarkable 63 pages, the document covers all aspects that are to be taken into account in the handling of data in the GMP/GDP field. From basic principles, such as the ALCOA principle, to considerations for paper-based or computerised systems or the handling of so-called "findings" and potential risks, all areas are covered.Outsourcing activities and resulting actions such as audits, secure supply chain considerations or document verifications are discussed in a separate section. This also applies to necessary regulatory interventions: Possible "deficiencies" in data management are categorised and suggestions are made on how to address them. A comprehensive glossary concludes the document.
