Upgrading a Legacy System to Meet Modern GMP Expectations A global pharmaceutical manufacturer sought to modernize its Building Management System (BMS) —including a Qualified Building Management System (QBMS) module used for quality impact systems— to enhance reliability, standardize automation across global sites, and ensure continued GxP compliance.  Performance Validation (PV) was engaged to support a […]

AT A GLANCE An equipment manufacturer of high-speed automated assembly machines in Illinois partnered with Performance Validation (PV) to validate its drive/reject assembly machine. The equipment manufacturer was a vendor for one of the largest pharmaceutical manufacturers in the Midwest. The pharmaceutical manufacturer needed to produce more auto-injector pens for its drug products, so it […]

AT A GLANCE One of the largest pharmaceutical manufacturers in the Midwest partnered with Performance Validation (PV) to inspect its vial production process. The pharmaceutical manufacturer had two main objectives: The PV team had nearly a decade of experience supporting the inspection process for the pharmaceutical manufacturer, which allowed them to build expertise with the […]

At A Glance PV played a crucial role in collaborating with a major pharmaceutical manufacturer in Michigan to upgrade an obsolete Siemens Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) responsible for controlling the thermal oxidizer (TOX) used in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The TOX system served as a mission-critical component, and its reliance on the […]

At A Glance: A well-established pharmaceutical manufacturer in Kalamazoo, Michigan, embarked on a critical initiative to upgrade their production capabilities, focusing on the implementation of a dual-component vial system. Recognizing the complexity and importance of this project, the manufacturer entrusted Performance Validation (PV) as their validation partner. PV’s expertise was vital in addressing the evolving […]

AT A GLANCE A pharmaceutical manufacturer in Illinois requested Performance Validation’s expertise to carry out a two-stage upgrade for their existing process responsible for sterilizing, filling, freeze-drying, offloading, and capping vials. The first stage of the project focused on two large lyophilizers and were executed while production was ongoing, while the second stage focused on […]

At A Glance A prominent pharmaceutical manufacturer on a global scale was seeking to integrate periodic reviews in their quality process to detect qualification gaps, undocumented system modifications, deviation trends, as well as maintenance and calibration issues, negative trends in system performance, and inadequacies in the development of required legacy documents. In collaboration with the […]
