What is GMP Certification?
Good manufacturing practice (GMP) is a conceptual standard that guarantees products are consistently (quality and all technical specification wise) and continually being manufactured and the various processes are controlled according to proven quality standards requirements. The standard requirements have been designed/developed in a way to proactively control the risks to the end-user from items and products out of production from the company- Food & drugs, Cosmetics, Medical Devices, Pharmaceuticals, etc.
GMP stands for Good Manufacturing Practice regulations developed by the (FDA) Food and Drug Administration under the authority of the FDA- Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (See Chapter IV for food, and Chapter V, Subchapters A, B, C, D, and E for drugs and devices.)
GMP standard regulations address issues (internal/external) including documentation, procedures, SOPs, record keeping, personnel qualifications & awareness, sanitation, cleanliness, equipment verification, process validation, and complaint handling; packaging and labeling, etc. Most GMP standard guidelines and CFR requirements are very general, as normally standards are, accepting manufacturers themselves to decide respectively how effectively to interpret and implement the necessary controls. This means that it provides more tractability, but also generically requires that the manufacturer company effectively interpret the guidelines and requirements in an approach that will make sense for each business.
GMP sometimes is referred also being as “cGMP”. The “c” stands for “current,” asking manufacturers that they must employ current and advanced technologies and systems that are up-to-date to comply with the regulation. Systems, Infrastructure, and Equipment are being used to proactively prevent issues, problems, contamination, mix-ups, and non-contaminations and errors, which may have been very good some years ago, but during current/modern times, maybe less than adequate by current standards.
