Preliminary Steps

Development Of The Preventive Controls Program

3. 7.02.03 Is the preventive control program (as part of the Preventive Control Plan re-analysis) reviewed when significant changes are made (raw materials, packaging, suppliers, product, process, construction, recurring deviations, new scientific information, etc.) and at least once every 3 years?

9. 7.02.09 Have corrective action procedures been established for the preventive controls, including a detailed action plan for operators to follow if out-of-specification situations are observed (loss of control/deviation) and plans to adjust the process back into control?
