Learn the FDA best practices used in specific tasks and deliverables for both disaster recovery and business continuity to maintain care and to ensure a compliant environment.

Overview

Computer system validation training has been regulated by FDA for more than 30 years, as it relates to systems used in the manufacture, testing, distribution and management of a product in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, animal health, tobacco and other regulated industries.
Disaster recovery activities often include efforts to deal with both system functionality and data integrity, quality, accessibility and accuracy.
Business continuity plan training often include efforts to deal with system functionality and data integrity, quality, accessibility and accuracy, but the focus is on getting the business processes running in the absence of a sound system or data.
The specific tasks and deliverables for both disaster recovery and business continuity must be completed with care toward maintaining a compliant environment.
There are best practices used in the FDA training, and these can be leveraged to develop a standard and consistent approach within a company.

Why Should You Attend

The attendee will learn how to develop a standard approach to planning, executing and documenting efforts that involve recovery of systems and data in a manner that complies with FDA guidelines. Some people may be new to the concept of validation and FDA regulation, and will have to be coached on how to follow any necessary procedures required for compliance. This is often true for IT staff, and is likely to be the case in companies in the Tobacco industry, where regulations are emerging. It’s important to look at what are some of the threats and challenges, and what methods you can use to mitigate these.
There is an enormous body of documentation and information available that can be overwhelming. This webinar will provide a condensed overview of the practices that deliver the best results by directing the attendees to the most critical and cost-effective techniques and tools available to assure compliance when managing activities related to handling data.

Areas Covered In This Webinar

The webinar will focus on the key aspects of disaster recovery efforts, including best practices and principles for handling this type of project work in an FDA-regulated environment (i.e., the system “touches” product during the manufacturing, testing or distribution of the product, or during any other functional activity).  The material will include the various aspects of system and data related projects, and the result will be a prescriptive approach to helping teams and individuals reach a higher level of compliance.
The webinar will include the various aspects of system and data related issues that force an organization to revert to backup operations, and the result will be a prescriptive approach to helping teams and individuals reach a higher level of compliance.
FDA compliance training guidelines are very specific in terms of how computer systems are to be managed, and each company should have a specific strategy and methodology, along with a set of rigorous tactical processes and procedures that prescribe how participants in projects should be managed.
