  • Sterilization Expiry of sterilized vessels

Automation Validation

Development of prevalidation documents such as User Requirements Specifications, Requirements Traceability Matrices and Configuration Specifications to integrate with system IQ, OQ and PQ.

Cycle Development

Design and implementation of Cycle Development tests for autoclave cycles, (including compliance with EU Sterilizer requirements) as well as Cleaning Cycle Development tests for establishing Acceptance Criteria and CIP cycle parameters.

Commissioning

  • Impact Assessment of systems and equipment per ISPE Guidelines
  • Development and implementation of Commissioning Plans and documents to integrate with Validation
    • Goal is to minimize repeat testing
