I. Plan a Validation Gap Analysis
Understand the audience – what standards are we
being assessed against?
Determine roles, responsibilities and scope of the
gap assessment.
Tools to use when performing a typical gap
assessment.
Implement a remediation plan.

The purpose of the process VMP is to define the process validation studies
required to support licensure of Drug Substance manufacturing .The Process
Validation Master Plan provides a general description of the process, outlines
the process validation strategy and defines the validation studies that have
been, or will be conducted to support the full validation of the commercial scale
drug substance manufacturing process.
