Registration Link:https://events.eply.com/MNASQTitlebyPresenter3364872About the PresentationThis presentation will discuss the key features involved in setting up / building your Quality Management System (QMS) so you are ready for FDA and other supplier/ISO certification related audits. Manufacturers of FDA regulated products such as medical devices, nutraceuticals, food and pharmaceutical products need to understand and abide by several requirements and establish them as part of their QMS to support their cGMP processes. Expectations by FDA for Quality Management Systems (QMS) are becoming increasingly stringent. Product manufacturers are finding it very challenging to sustain their QMS for FDA registered products in the market, particularly when our supply chain is becoming increasingly global.
This Presentation will dive into the key QMS requirements that are common between 21 CFR 210/211 (Pharmaceutical), 820 (Med devices) and 111 (Dietary supplements) and refer to some of the unique expectations for each of the FDA regulated industries. Tips will be provided on the key aspects that companies should focus on while setting up their QMS so they can maintain their QMS and come out of their audits with minimal/no observations. Quality associates, Design/ Manufacturing Engineers, QA/QC/ RA professionals associated with the FDA regulated medical device, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries are the target audience for this presentation. All professionals committed to cGMP manufacturing in our highly regulated quality environment will find the practical examples to be extremely valuable tools for the rest of their professional lives. If you are a quality or a regulatory professional in a small start-up company or an established global manufacturer, you are bound to walk away with a few valuable tips to set up/ address gaps in your QMS and become FDA audit ready.
