Key Improvements:
- A more effective, standardized method of training operators in new validation protocols.
- Operator involvement in defining the content and the most effective method of training to meet their needs
- Clear definitions of roles and responsibilities during validation protocol training and process management
- A template for the training manual which trainers adapt to meet the specific needs of the process change protocol (SOP)
- Weekly process reviews with operators to review issues, propose and implement solutions and sustain the improvements
Three month after implementation ZERO deviations were raised during 20 validation runs. Operators also reported that the new training methods removed a lot of the frustration and rework. Estimated annual savings of over €700,000.
