DOCUMENTATION AND DATA CONTROL

Description

Documentation and Data Control (DDC) is a critical function in the pharmaceutical industry, ensuring the accuracy, integrity, and accessibility of all documents and data generated throughout the product lifecycle.

DDC maintains a robust system for creating, reviewing, approving, distributing, and archiving documents, ensuring that all personnel have access to the latest versions. This includes SOPs, batch records, test results, and regulatory submissions. DDC also plays a key role in data integrity, implementing controls to prevent data manipulation and ensuring data is complete, consistent, and attributable. Effective DDC practices are essential for regulatory compliance, product quality, and patient safety.
