GMP Inspection Readiness Checklist

Checklist are important to track or avoid any important points during routine work.

Below are the some Important points which helps in GMP inspection readiness.


  • Current Organograms
  • Copies of new and existing regulatory submissions.
  • Documents of recent regulatory agency inspection (reports and responses).
  • Site master file.
  • Facility floor plans.
  • Site equipment list.
  • SOP Index
  • Training records.
  • Master batch manufacturing records.
  • Flow chart for the entire manufacturing and packing process. Example executed batch record.
  • Equipment history records.
  • Change Control SOP and summary of any relevant process change.
  • Calibration SOP and Master calibration plan as well as summary of plan adherence along with calibration failure summaries.
  • Preventative Maintenance program SOP and Master schedule.
  • Summary of any manufacturing or specification change made as a result of API process change.
  • Deviation control SOP and summary of all product rejection, process failure and manufacturing deviation, reworks and reprocessing summaries including disposition of batches involved.
  • Validation Master Plan.
  • Computer System Validation Master Plan (CSVMP)
  • Process Validation reports.
  • Equipment qualification reports and area qualifications/validation in the manufacture of drug products.
  • APQR.
  • Cleaning validation reports for area/equipment used in the manufacture of drug products and written report detailing the rational for worst case, and cleaning endpoint/acceptable residue level.
  • Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) validation reports.
  • LIMS Management procedure (pass, fail, retest criteria and responsibilities, report generation, etc.).
  • Raw materials, Excipients, component, In-process and Finished Material Specifications.
  • Analytical method validation reports for all testing procedures used during validation and manufacturing (including tests of incoming raw materials and packaging components).
  • Summary of overall percentage of laboratory test failures, including retests, for all products.
  • SOP for handling of OOS.
  • List of OOS by product being inspected
  • List of products supplied to US (for FDA).
  • Stability studies program including sample collection, storage, testing and summary including changes made in response to API change and any other changes to the process or method.
  • Plan of the water system, air handling (HVAC), Compressed air system, nitrogen system, and any other service systems supporting manufacturing.
  • Plans of the water system, air handling (HVAC)
  • Environmental monitoring summaries (trending) for production areas used for manufacturing.
  • Water system monitoring test result trends.
  • Microbiological specifications and testing procedures.
  • Vendor approval status for all suppliers of API, Excipients and packaging materials used in manufacturing.
  • Market complaints summary, procedure and investigation reports.
  • Summary of rejection of or complaints to suppliers of any materials used for manufacturing.

Hope this will helps......

Schedule M series - Training

Training: Training is one of the important aspect in pharmaceutical industry.  Training are broadly categories as below: 1. Induction training  2. SOP training  3. On-job training and 4. Training on Regularly & other soft skills. Training is covered in all the cGMP guidance and auditors verify the person involved in manufacturing of drug product are well trained to execute his/her task. Schedule M also emphasized the importance of training hence, covered the following requirement on training. 1.1: Beside basic training on the theory and practice of GMP, newly appointed personal shall receive training to the duties assigned to them. 1.2: Company should provide training in accordance with a written training program for all personal whose duties take them into manufacturing area or QC. This training includes all the personal from the technical, maintenance and cleaning (house keeping) and for other personnel as required. 1.3: Continues training shall the provided and ...

Evaluation of Tablet

  GENERANL APPEARANCE Size, shape and thickness Size and shape:  Can be controlled by size and shape of punches and die of tablet compression machine. Tablet thickness (dimensional variation) related to: a)        Constant compression load:  Tablet Thickness varies with tab. weight, die fill and Particle Size distribution. b)       Constant die fill: Thickness varies with compression load. Tablet thickness can be measured by: Micrometer:  Measure individual tablet thickness (so accurate information on variation between tab.) Holding tray: measure total tab. thickness of 5-10 tablet with a sliding caliper scale (not accurate information provider on variation between tabs but overall estimation) to give more rapid readings. Shape: Shape of tablet influence the choice of tablet machine used with special slotted punches that run at lower speed than conventional punches that produce round tablets. Organ...

Good Laboratory practices and Requirements of Premises and Equipment's.

Good Laboratory Practices and Requirement of premises and Equipment's General Requirements:- a) The laboratory or the the organization of which it is a part must be an entity that is legally authorized to function and can be held legally responsible. b) Management ensures that the laboratory carry out its testing, calibration, validation, and all other technical activities in such a way as to meet Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) requirements.  c) The Quality manger shall prepare a schedule for technical audit of the laboratory for GLP compliance by an expert or experts appointed by the top-management other than the in-charge of the laboratory and shall ensures the maintenance of documented quality systems as per quality manual. Premises:- a) The laboratory shall be designed, constructed and maintained so as to prevent entry of insects and rodents besides cross contamination. b) Wall, floor and ceilings ( interior surface) shall be smooth and free from cracks and permits easy cleani...
