The Qualification of facilities and utilities is best managed with the creation of a qualification plan. The plan can provide a framework that outlines the qualification activities, rationales, deliverables, resources and timing. However, certain qualification activities are strongly recommended and mandated by health regulators especially within pharmaceutical biotech, medtech and medical device sectors. The regulatory legislation pertaining to the specific products and markets can inform the essential qualification requirements. Medical devices range in their principle mechanism of action, complexity and intended use. For example, the facility and supporting utilities necessary for the manufacture and packing of a surgical implant differs from an Orthopedic crutch or aid. Yet again, a medicinal product or combination device such as a pre-filled syringe with a biological formulation will require aseptic techniques to be applied during the process. This controlled environment that assures sterility is supported by qualified facilities and utilities that need to function and perform consistently. Therefore, the scope and complexity of C&Q and validations must be designed based on the products manufactured and their intended purposes. With that said, there are a number of keystone commissioning, qualification and validation activities that represent best practices that are broadly applied to meet regulations. The essentials of C&Q can be specified in company (in-house) procedures or standard operating procedures. The discrete requirements required for specific projects can then be guided with the creation of a C&Q plan.This short pocket book covers the below content.Table of ContentsIntroduction to Commissioning, Qualification And ValidationOverview, High Level understanding C&Q, REGULATORY REQUIREMENTSC&Q Model, QUALIFICATION Model for Manufacturing systems and Equipment User requirements specification, (URS), Design qualification (DQ)Commissioning, EU GMP V4 Annex 15, Changes to validated systems or processes, Introduction, Validation and product lifecycle, CleanroomsCleanroom Environment, Cleanroom Zoning and Classification, Types of Contamination, Cleanroom Classification TablE, ZONE CLASSIFICATION, HVAC Particulate Control Total Airflow Volumes & Recovery RatesParticle Generation Rate (PGR)Room Supply Air Volume Non-unidirectional flow & unidirectionalUnidirectional flowAirlocksRoom Temperature and Relative HumidityTemperature Control and Spread of Smoke CLEANING HVAC SystemsISO Standards for CleanroomsTemperature Air Handling UnitsFiltration course/ PRE- Filtration Fine / SECONDARY Filtration Compliance Tests for GMP ZonesParticle count testFILTER LEAKAGE TESTS CONTAINMENT LEAKAGE TEST AND MORE

The late twentieth century saw charities grow from timid service deliverers into major providers with campaigning teeth. What caused this? How did they gain confidence and strength? In this fascinating history, examined through the eyes of RNIB from 1970 to 2010, Ian Bruce examines the internal drivers and the external socio-political environment that allowed and encouraged this explosion. Bruce¿s experience of leading a charity at the forefront of this change, and his participation in the wider charity sector for fiftyyears as both activist and academic, gives him an unsurpassed understanding of what happened and why. His first-hand knowledge will speak to charity workers as well as academics, covering themes such as the rise of beneficiary power against patronising providers; the change from welfare to rights; the shift from the medical to the social model of disability; and the adoption of social welfare and business professionalisms such as Strategic Planning and Charity Marketing. Today¿s charities have much to learn from the successes and mistakes of this dynamic period.
