Writing Effective Standard Operating Procedures: Ensure Quality and Compliance from Step One
Your standard operating procedures are some of the first things FDA investigators will look at during an inspection. Yet, in 2015, "inadequate SOPs" was once again a Top 5 most-frequently-cited Form 483 observation.
A well-written SOP helps you demonstrate your compliance and say to inspectors: “We know what we are doing — and why.”
But what exactly does an SOP need to contain to be “adequate?” What information, if any, should be omitted? How do you write them so that employees can easily understand and follow them, and when do they need to be changed?
