Why should you attend?

All medical device manufacturers are required to have a robust system in place to develop, conduct, control and monitor production processes to ensure that a device conforms to its specifications. Many manufacturers are overwhelmed with the requirements of 21 CFR Part 820.7 and are unsure how to comply with these regulations. Other manufacturers may have documented procedures and systems in place to meet the requirements of this section but are unsure if it’s appropriate (i.e. too complex or too broad) or effective. This presentation will help you get an in-depth understanding of what regulatory agencies such as the FDA are requiring for production and process controls as they relate to documentation, change control, environment control, personnel, contamination control, buildings, equipment, manufacturing material and automated processes. The topics and pointers within the presentation will provide the tools necessary to evaluate your already-existing processes to determine if it meets requirements and if your systems are robust enough to ensure actions are effective or overly-complicated and preventing smooth operation. We’ll provide an overview of commonly-used tools, help understand some misconceptions with implementation, and provide tips and tricks for ensuring your device conforms to its specifications.
