Key Takeaways:

  • Lifecycle validation follows design, qualification and continued verification.
  • CCPPs and CCQAs must be controlled for consistent and effective cleaning.
  • Process Qualification includes IQ, OQ, PQ, validated methods and trained staff.
  • Real-time TOC and conductivity monitoring detects early process deviations.
  • A risk-based approach improves efficiency, compliance and OOS resolution.
