                                                   If  manufacturing  processes  are  to  be  updated,
                                                   they  may  require  revalidation  as  part  of
                                                   implementation.

                                                   Once manufacturing processes are changed, it's
                                                   important to continue to monitor the effects of the

                                                   change  on  product  quality  in  order  to  provide
                                                   quality assurance that the change  has not had
                                                   any adverse effects.



                                                   Training
                                                   Implementing  effective  CAPAs  often  requires
                                                   changes to procedures and stair practices.


                                                   When  changes  of  this  nature  occur,  it  is  a
                                                   regulatory expectation that supportive training is
                                                   conducted  so  that  CAPA  permanently  fixes  the
                                                   problem.





               Vendor assurance

               Supplier  or  vendor  assurance  programs  are  the  first  steps  in  ensuring  that
               quality products are manufactured. It starting materials are sub-standard; the
               company would have to rely on the laboratory to find any defects through testing.

               As  laboratory  testing  has  some  significant  limitations,  QA  is  required  to
               implement vendor assurance programs.

               QA's role in vendor assurance includes the following activities:

                   Auditing critical suppliers


                   Approving or rejecting suppliers whose products may affect qualify

                   Changing starting material receipt testing plans, depending on the supplier
                   risk
