Proven Protocols and Expertise to Qualify Our Products for Use in Your Testing Processes

cGMPs/cGLPs require equipment and test methods to be validated before routine use. This process can be time-consuming and may delay the start of critical QC procedures. Receive prepared protocols and have your new QC systems validated quickly and efficiently by our experts, saving time in the process. Our Customer Validation Protocols are now available in digital format for an optimized experience using our Val@M™ Application.

  • Reduced development time & cost for validation
  • Regulatory compliance and auditability
  • Decades of expertise in applications, regulations, and validation
  • Full digital validation workflow using our Val@M™ Application

FAQs

What is the structure of a Customer Validation Protocol?

Our validation protocols are based on our internal product qualification test methods. These extensive protocols follow international guidelines such as EP/USP and GMP.

  • Validation Master Plan (VMP): Defines structure and responsibilities for qualification.
  • Installation Qualification Protocol (IQP): Verifies and identifies the system, verifies the system’s utilities, and checks operating environment requirements, equipment, and personnel preparation.
  • Operational Qualification Protocol (OQP): Verifies the system’s functionality (hardware, software, devices).
  • Performance Qualification Guidelines (PQG)

To receive a quotation for a Customer Validation Protocol and associated on-site IQ & OQ service, please contact your local sales representative.

We have experienced and trained validation engineers who are skilled in assisting with Customer Validation Protocol implementation within the QC Microbiology laboratory, so the QC/QA Departments do not have to allocate resources. Technical training on your new system is also provided during the validation engineer's visit. In addition to IQ & OQ execution, we can assist with PQ consulting and execution services as well as advanced operator training. For more information, please contact your local sales representative.

Preparing the protocol on your own may require around 4 weeks of development, including research on applicable regulations, defining acceptance criteria, writing test methods, formatting, etc. You can save this time by using our ready-to-use Customer Validation Protocol.

The estimated IQ/OQ completion time for your own staff without a pre-written protocol is 6 to 7 weeks, and still 2 to 3 weeks using our Customer Validation Protocol. Our trained validation engineers will complete this work in 1 to 5 days on-site, depending on the type and number of systems. You just need to plan the slot with our coordination team in advance.
