Pfizer - McPherson, Kansas
Data Integrity Remediation. Developed, implemented and verified over 75 corrective actions in response to agency and internal audits. Initial project tasks included facility assessment of GMP data of Laboratory Systems and Manufacturing Systems to ensure the safety, identity, potency, quality of drug product produced at the site undergoing remediation. The Data Integrity assessment applied to both paper based systems, such as batch records and logbooks, and computerized systems, such as laboratory instruments and automated manufacturing equipment. This initial assessment graded Manufacturing and Laboratory systems to ensure GMP data is attributable, legible, contemporaneous, original and accurate. Based on the findings of these initial assessments, subsequent phases, implemented upgrades to assessed manufacturing and laboratory systems. Example upgrades (interim, short term and long term) included the following:
