Process Validation
ViP Definition
"Process Validation is the provision of documented evidence to demonstrate that a registered process consistently produces a product, which meets its predetermined specification and quality characteristics."

Process Validation has traditionally been considered to be the manufacture of three consecutive replicate batches of product and requires qualified systems, validated cleaning and analytical methods, approved working instructions, trained personnel, and controlled documentation.

At ViP we recommend the expansion of this definition to encompass the trending of key/critical process parameters over time. This provides support for annual reviews and the associated rationales with respect to minimising the requirement for revalidation, while perfectly integrating with the FDA's Risk-Based Approach and Process Analytical Technology (PAT) initiative.

Although execution of Process Validation is the responsibility of trained company personnel, ViP can assist in the development of process validation protocols/programmes and supervision of initial activity.
