Computer System Validations (CSV)

Life Sciences companies operate in a highly regulated environment that is continually growing and evolving as regulations and guidance criteria change.  US FDA and EMA require that life science organizations provide documented evidence that their processes, their computer systems, their facilities, equipment, and methods meet quality requirements.

Adding to these pressures are advancements that are introduced by computerized systems and related technologies.  Companies have no choice but to significantly invest in achieving compliance across processes and computerized systems while simultaneously continuing to develop new products and maintain profitability.
