This interactive seminar is the official launch of GAMP 5: A Risk-based Approach to Compliant GxP Computerized Systems, and focuses on the principles, concepts, and approaches to computer systems compliance.
GAMP 5 represents a major upgrade to GAMP®4. The previous edition covers aspects of risk management, but GAMP 5 embeds the process and takes it to a new level. GAMP 5
addresses the entire lifecycle of an automated system in detail and is
applicable to a wide range of information systems, lab equipment,
integrated manufacturing systems, and IT infrastructures.
This new Guide also examines leveraging supplier capabilities in order
to build trust with suppliers and use of their documentation. It
recognizes the reality that most businesses no longer build their own
software systems, but buy configurable software.
Seminar workshops will help you apply GAMP 5 principles, and explain how GAMP 5
will enhance effectiveness and efficiency back on the job. You will
also learn the latest GAMP thinking on interpreting and understanding
current regulatory trends. GAMP 5 points to the future of
computer systems compliance by centering on principles behind major
industry developments such as PQLI, ICH Q8, Q9, Q10, and ASTM E2500.
Additional discussion topics based on new Guide information include
outsourcing, electronic batch recording, end user applications (such as
spreadsheets and small database applications), and patch management.
GAMP 5 has been written by the worldwide GAMP Community of
Practice and is the result of collaboration between pharmaceutical
companies, suppliers/vendors, consultants and regulators. This is your
chance to hear directly from contributors to GAMP 5 and get
both a complimentary copy of the Guide and a CD of checklists,
templates, diagrams, and other useful resources. GAMP 5 will go on sale
shortly after this launch event.
