SME Toolbox: An introduction to GxP (ie GMP/GLP/GCP/GDP) requirements

Companies in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries are constantly pushing the boundary of innovation to develop new products. In coping with this ‘bleeding edge' innovation, compliance with the regulatory requirements is becoming far more rigorous, challenging the industry to meet the constantly rising standards of quality and compliance.

In the highly-regulated life sciences industry, accuracy, quality and time-to-market are vital in the pursuit of global markets. Compliance and performance are the goals of every life science company. But they don't just happen. They are achieved when what is collectively termed as GxP (ie GMP/GLP/GCP/GDP) becomes a lifestyle shared by everyone in the organisation.

This can initially present a barrier for many SMEs and other organisations in their development plans; however, this need not be the case, with many SMEs turning certification into a competitive advantage for securing business.

Nexxus, in conjunction with Edwin Lindsay of Compliance Solutions, is pleased to present an introduction into GxP requirements to demonstrate that a common sense approach can help both SMEs and large organisations to ensure they remain compliant. Topics covered in the seminar include:-

• Basic steps to compliance with GxP (GMP/GLP/GCP/GDP)
• Increasing regulatory requirements for all organisations (including the NHS)
• Approach to an MHRA/FDA audit
• Even the big companies fall foul of the regulatory authorities, ie Coca Cola

The seminar is open to everyone and would be of particular benefit to SMEs, public organisations and individuals alike who are already engaged or considering engaging with regulatory bodies.
