ISPE Conference on Product and Process Quality

Science and Risk-based Approach for C&Q: Application of the new Baseline Guide

Monday 15- Tuesday 16 September 2008
Manchester, United Kingdom

Seminar Leaders:
Nuala Calnan, Project Management Group Ltd (Ireland)
Robert Adamson, Foster Wheeler Energy Ltd (UK)

Find out how to transition from the original C&Q Baseline® Guide to the ASTM Standard
Align the Guide with GAMP® Guides, ISPE Technical Documents and ISPE’s PQLI initiative
Listen to case studies on transitioning from the original Guide for both new and legacy systems

This seminar offers an exclusive opportunity to receive an overview of the Baseline® Pharmaceutical Engineering Guide for Installation and Verification – An Implementation Guide in Support of Science and Risk-based approaches for C&Q and In Support of ASTM E2500, which is currently in development.

The new guide will coexist with the current C&Q Baseline Guide and provides guidance on the implementation of risk-based approaches and verification of a system under the ASTM Standard E2500 – Standard for Specification, Design, and Verification of Pharmaceutical and Biopharmaceutical Manufacturing Systems and Equipment. The seminar also focuses on how the new Guide incorporates concepts from ICH Q8 and Q9 guidance, and provides procedures to improve delivery of regulated manufacturing capacity.

This is a topic of great interest to the industry as the ASTM E2500 standard was published in 2007 and delegates will be interested to understand more about ISPE’s response. It is also of major significance due to the ongoing debate as to whether the previous guide and methodology are to be followed or whether the industry should move to this new paradigm.

Take Back To Your Job:
Thorough knowledge of ASTM E2500 and its impact on Commissioning and Qualification
Transition historical practice into the implementation of the ASTM Standard
Understand the application to the legacy system lifecycle
Show alignment with GAMP, other ISPE technical documents, and ISPE’s PQLI initiative
Identify and control risks in the manufacturing process
Understand Regulatory perspectives
