CONCLUSION
Process validation is one of the key components of a quality
system. The main constituents of the process are environment, buildings, equipment, personnel, and documentation. The existing guidances and standards cover different
aspects of process validation, which requires one to take
into consideration multiple sources for establishing a specific process validation methodology for each company.
FDA, as a government organization, strives to maintain
the public safety by providing guidances and regulations to
follow in order to produce safe products in qualified facilities. Individual companies establish validation processes to
conform to FDAs guidelines. Public complaints and FDA
inspections of manufacturing and research facilities allow the
government to control quality operations and development
activities in the pharmaceutical industry. Failure to follow
FDA guidances and regulations may lead to observations
and possible consent decrees, which are aimed at outlining corrective action procedures for companies to return
to a compliant good manufacturing practice environment.
