Overview
Senior Management has the responsibility to be involved in design and implementation of the quality system and this responsibility continues to include participation in quality activities. The most productive activity of this continued participation is to ensure that periodic internal audits are conducted to the term the effectiveness of the quality system established and that when deficiencies occur, solutions are effectively implemented.
The effectiveness of the well-known financial internal audit has ensured the stability of the company's financial structure. The internal quality and compliance audit cannot only stabilize operations and ensure consistent quality but can also lead to quality and systemic improvements that benefit the Corporation.
The FDA's first venture into requirement for formal internal audits was in the 1978 Good Manufacturing Practices for Medical Devices, the first GMP issued for medical device. This GMP resulted from the1976 Medical Devices Amendments passed by Congress to regulate medical devices. Him. This GMP also initiated a more quality systems approach for achieving quality as opposed to strong compliance approach. At the same time, The Finished Pharmaceutical cGMP Part 210-211 was also promulgated but lacked proactive QS features such as internal audits.
Now, the internal audit is required and expected throughout the FDA industry.

This webinar will begin with the required internal but will expand the internal audit to include product, quality, as well as seeking improvements to focus on customer satisfaction with the product or service.
