Laboratory Control System Checklist: Laboratory Equipment Qualification and Calibration

This Laboratory Control System Checklist is meant to be used to audit your laboratory for compliance with the Quality Systems Based approach to Lab CGMPs. Since the vast majority of data in a modern analytical laboratory are acquired via instrumentation, it is essential that these instruments have been properly installed, qualified, and are kept in proper working order. The Laboratory Equipment Qualification and Calibration sub element addresses these issues. Laboratory Equipment Qualification and Calibration include at least three individual topics. A laboratory, which is in compliance with CGMPs, should address each of these topics (as applicable). These topics include: (1) Laboratory Equipment Procedures-General, (2) Laboratory Equipment Procedures-Specific, and (3) Laboratory Equipment Procedures-Computer Controlled. This checklist is a modifiable 11 page Microsoft® Word document. This product is available for download.
