2. QUALITY SYSTEM:
A documented quality system is to be implemented and maintained
usually in the format of a Quality manual. A life cycle approach is proposed,
which includes all the elements starting from market research to define
customer needs and preferences to final products, after sale and final
disposal.
Most of this topic are included in the cGMP and cGMP are more
concerned with product safety & efficacy than with customer satisfaction.
3. CONTRACT REVIEW:
A contract should exist between the suppliers and the manufactures
that clearly defines the Quality requirements and assures that the suppliers
have the ability to meeting its requirements.
4. DESIGN CONTROL:
ISO 9000 provides extensive guidance regarding design control.
ISO 9000 series supersedes cGMP in design control. It involves the
conversion of customer needs to final products. Each and every step in the
design/development process is monitored to assure the quality of the final
product. This level of control during product design and development is not
included in the cGMP.
5. DOCUMENT CONTROL:
It involves the effective control of approved documentation from
initiation, issue to use. Obsolete documentation must be removed from the
operation and change over procedures is required.
6. PURCHASING:
It defines how to assure the quality of purchased materials and what
are the steps to be taken for the steps to be taken for the selections of sub
contractors. cGMP only address from recipt of purchased materials onwards.

the GMP.
17.SERVICING:
There should be procedures to evaluate and report on performance.
18.STATISCAL TECHNIQUES:
Statistical techniques are applied to verify process capability and
product characteristics.
There are various statistical techniques like:
1) Design of experiments and factorial analysis.
2) Analysis of variants (ANOVA).
Which are carried out in various fields like market analysis, product
design, stability, process controls and capability, sampling and data analysis.
