Understanding Validation in Regulated Industries
LabWare Validation Services play a crucial role in steering customers away from nonessential activities and focusing on compliance activities that add real value to their Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). Many customers in regulated industries face the challenging task of validating computer applications to meet stringent regulatory requirements. The FDA defines computer validation as the confirmation that software specifications align with user needs and intended uses, while verification ensures that design outputs comply with specified requirements at each phase of the software development life cycle.
LabWare's Validation Approach
LabWare recommends a life-cycle validation approach based on GAMP principles, specifically designed for COTS software with configuration. By offering a risk-based testing approach, LabWare focuses on validating the configuration to meet user, business, and regulatory needs. LabWare validation services include testing the proper installation and functioning of the LIMS, ensuring configured objects meet defined requirements, and confirming the system aligns with business processes. Consultants assess system risks and complexity, prioritizing validation efforts to mitigate high-risk areas and ensure a well-tested and documented system.
