Objectives
During this course, you will learn all relevant aspects to implement and/ or improve a comprehensive and integrated Supplier Qualification System which fulfils regulatory GMP requirements. Furthermore, you will get to know possibilities and tools to increase efficiency and decrease costs at your Company.
Background
Qualification and audits of suppliers, contract manufacturers and laboratories and other service providers are an important part of each Quality System. But what is required and which steps are really necessary? And is it possible to even decrease audit activities?
The requirements and efforts to qualify suppliers should not be underestimated. However, it seems that a downright ‘audit tourism’ has grown and suppliers and service providers are audited sometimes too often. In the globalising world more and more supplies are coming from countries like India and China. And qualifying these suppliers brings other challenges. This adds up to significant expenses for both the audited and the auditing Company.
But supplier qualification is not limited to auditing. The whole process of supplier qualification and co-operation should be integrated in the existing Quality System of a Company.
Target Group
This course and its pre-course session are designed for all personnel involved in supplier qualification activities at their company and decision makers who want to improve the existing process. It is addressed to persons from Quality Assurance and Control, Procurement, Business Development, Manufacturing, Project Management and R&D.
