The Importance of Audit Management for Life Science Companies
Audit management plays a crucial role in ensuring product quality, safety, and compliance within the life science industries. Audits are conducted to assess the accuracy and reliability of quality and manufacturing processes to meet regulatory requirements such as Good Laboratory Practices (GLP), Good Clinical Practices (GCP), and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
Types of Audits in Life Science Companies
Life science companies conduct various audits including regulatory audits, quality management system audits, supplier audits, clinical trial audits, process validation audits, risk management audits, data integrity audits, and post-market surveillance audits. Each type of audit focuses on different aspects of product quality, safety, and compliance.
Challenges Faced in Internal and External Audits
Internal and external audits often face challenges such as inefficient manual processes, ineffective communication, incomplete or inaccessible documentation, siloed processes/disconnected systems, inconsistent audit results, and lack of oversight.
