Good Documentation Practices (GDPs) for FDA-Regulated Computer Systems

Duration 90 Mins
Level Intermediate
Webinar ID IQW19F0612

  • Computer System Validation (CSV) and the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) Methodology
  • “GxP” – Good Manufacturing, Laboratory and Clinical Practices
  • 21 CFR Part 11, Electronic Records/Electronic Signatures (ER/ES)
  • Data Archival to ensure security, integrity and compliance
  • Learn the requirements for documenting efforts related to systems governed by FDA
  • Discuss the best practices for documenting computer system validation efforts, including requirements, design, development, testing and operational maintenance procedures.
  • Review examples of incorrect, incomplete, or otherwise inappropriate and non-compliant documentation and understand why these are not acceptable
  • Learn how to prepare a procedure that will capture the best practices for FDA compliant documentation
  • Discuss the importance of training as it relates to good documentation practices to ensure FDA compliance

 

Overview of the webinar

As a “GxP” system, following Good Manufacturing, Laboratory and Clinical Practices, the computer system must be validated in accordance with FDA requirements.  If electronic records and/or electronic signatures (ER/ES) are incorporated into the system, FDA’s CFR Part 11 guidance on ER/ES must be followed.

This webinar will help you understand the FDA’s requirements for good documentation, including how to handle change control and the importance of audit trails.  We will also cover the importance of maintaining the documentation from every computer system validation effort in a “current” state.  The system must be maintained in a validated state throughout its entire life cycle, and the accompanying validation documentation must also be maintained.

Faculty - Ms.Carolyn Troiano

Carolyn Troiano has more than 30 years of experience in computer system validation in the pharmaceutical, medical device, animal health and other FDA-regulated industries. She is currently managing a large, complex data migration, analytics and reporting program at a major financial institution.

During her career, Carolyn worked directly, or as a consultant, for many top-tier pharmaceutical companies in the US and Europe. She was responsible for computer system validation across all GxP functions at a major pharmaceutical company. Carolyn developed validation programs and strategies back in the mid-1980s, when FDA guidelines were first issued. She was an industry reviewer for 21 CFR Part 11, the FDA's electronic record/electronic signature (ER/ES) regulation. She has taught ER/ES compliance, along with computer system validation and risk management/compliance at a number of Fortune 100 firms. Her experience includes work with FDA-regulated systems used in all areas of research, development, manufacturing, quality testing and distribution.

Carolyn has participated in industry conferences, providing very creative and interactive presentations. She is currently active in the Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP), and Project Management Institute (PMI) chapters in the Richmond, VA area. Carolyn also volunteers for the PMI's Educational Fund as a project management instructor for non-profit organizations.
