Compliance Basics
What is GxP compliance?
GxP compliance refers to the systems, documentation, controls, and operating discipline that help regulated organizations meet applicable quality and regulatory expectations.
What is FDA inspection readiness?
FDA inspection readiness is the state of being prepared for regulatory review through organized documentation, trained personnel, controlled processes, and disciplined quality system oversight.
What is a GxP audit?
A GxP audit is a structured review of quality systems, records, procedures, and operational practices to identify gaps, strengthen controls, and reduce compliance risk.
Operational Support
What is CAPA?
CAPA stands for corrective and preventive action. It is a formal process used to investigate issues, address root causes, and reduce the likelihood of recurrence in regulated operations.
Why is data integrity important?
Data integrity is essential because regulated decisions depend on records that are complete, accurate, attributable, and trustworthy across the full data lifecycle.
