Tests verifying that the use cases and documenting any deviations found.Requirements and/or use cases describing how you intend to use the Computer Software.HOW do you intend to validate the software, what the acceptance criteria are, and in particular how do you intend to handle software errors detected during the validation.WHO is responsible for the software, for the maintenance of the software and who is responsible for the validation.A risk-based approach is also a viable starting point.) WHY are you validating this software to this particular extent (hint: the GMP Software Categories are a good starting place.

What do I need in order to validate Aligned Elements?Įven though ISO 13485:2016 and FDA 21 CFR 820 require Computer Systems used in the Quality Management System to be validated, they do not explicitly described how to do it. Since each Aligned Elements customer is using a different configuration (each customer has its individual QMS), we cannot foresee which configuration our customers will use.Īs mentioned, we do supply a number of useful tools to make the validation process faster.
When validating a software of Category 4, it is of course the particular configuration of the software that is validated. AE is a highly configurable software with the purpose of mapping the customer's QMS, as opposed to forcing the customer to change his processes and templates to match Aligned Elements. Why is Aligned Elements not validated by Aligned AG?Īligned Elements falls into the GAMP 5 Software category 4 - "Configurable Software". CSV is today used in many regulated industries and is today regarded as a good manufacturing practice.Īligned Elements certainly fall into the category of Computer systems that must be validated according to ISO 13485:2016 and FDA 21 CFR 820. If you do not have CSV process in place, we do have some things that may help you. It prevents problems with the software to reach the production environment. ISO 13485 is now finally on par with FDA 21 CFR 820 on this matter.Ĭomputer Software Validation is used to ensure that each computer system fulfills its intended purpose. Whereas ISO 13485:2003 did not explicitly require computer systems used in the quality management system to be validated, the 2016 edition certainly does. The new revision is essentially an evolution of the 2003 revision and includes a number of changes and clarifications.įor Aligned Elements users, a change in section 4.1.6 might have some important implications. On March 3rd, the 2016 revision of ISO 13485 was finally released.
