GMP Risk and Compliance

Pharmaceutical and medtech manufacturers operate under strict global GMP requirements. Early and ongoing oversight is essential to prevent compliance failures, audit findings and regulatory actions. Our GMP Risk & Compliance Oversight service provides structured, evidence-based assessment across sterile, non-sterile, ATMP, oral solid dose and cosmetics operations. We help you identify risks before they escalate and ensure your systems, processes and controls meet EU GMP, FDA CFR, Annex 1 and ISO expectations.

Comprehensive GMP Compliance Assessments

We conduct detailed GMP compliance assessments that benchmark your facility and quality systems against regulatory standards.
Our assessments cover:
• Sterile and aseptic manufacturing environments
• Non-sterile production and microbiological risk areas
• ATMP and cell therapy operations
• Oral solid dose (OSD) facilities
• Cosmetics and personal care regulated environments

Each assessment evaluates procedural controls, documentation readiness, contamination risks, personnel practices, utilities, cleaning systems, material flows and environmental controls.

Annex 1 and Contamination-Related Risk Identification

Contamination prevention is a critical component of modern GMP oversight. We apply risk-based tools to identify:
• Microbial and particulate contamination risks
• Operator-driven contamination pathways
• Weak points in cleaning and sanitisation practices
• Environmental monitoring gaps
• Failures in gowning, material transfer and segregation
• Utilities and support systems that contribute to contamination events

Our risk identification aligns directly with the latest EU GMP Annex 1 requirements and current expectations for contamination control strategies across all dosage forms.

GMP Audit Preparation and Independent Audit Support

We help clients prepare for inspections and internal audits by identifying compliance gaps early.
Support includes:
• Pre-audit compliance reviews
• Mock GMP audits
• Documentation sampling and traceability checks
• Regulatory referencing to EU GMP, FDA 21 CFR Parts 210/211 and Annex 1
• Action plans to close gaps before authority or customer audits

This ensures your facility, quality systems and records are audit-ready and defensible.

Clear Outcomes for Manufacturing and Quality Leaders

• Reduced regulatory and compliance risk
• Stronger inspection readiness
• Earlier identification of Annex 1-related issues
• Improved contamination control across all facility types
• Evidence-based decision-making for remediation and improvements

Our service strengthens compliance across the full manufacturing lifecycle, helping companies operate with confidence in complex GMP-regulated environments.

EU Annex 1 Self Inspection

If you are interested in performing a EU Annex 1 self inspection we have created this useful Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) risk assessment to allow pharmaceutical manufacturers to perform self-assessments on their facility and quality systems in accordance with EU Annex 1.

The output from the risk assessment is shown on an interactive dashboard where you can see the distribution of risk, assign action items and track actions to closure.
