Mapping & Monitoring for GMP Environments
This seminar covers fundamentals and details of mapping and monitoring for GMP regulated spaces. We begin with a discussion about applicable regulations and guidance followed by a more detailed presentation about risk assessment as it impacts mapping and monitoring processes and how they interrelate. The heart of this seminar is the Mapping Workshop which is a practical live exercise where the participants go through a guided process of mapping a chamber and warehouse. We wrap up the day with a discussion about best practices for incorporating your mapping project, monitoring system, and the relevant documentation as part of your company’s Quality System.
By the end of the seminar, you should be able to:
Make proper decisions about your mapping process as it relates to risk
Complete the 9 steps to mapping a space based on sound decision and real-life experiences
Document the process and support the decisions
