Manage Approvals
About
Pharmaceutical companies are required to submit a full Product Review (APQR in the U.S. and PQR in Europe) to government health authorities annually, detailing key aspects of the manufacturing process for each drug they produce. APQR or PQR is a mandatory requirement that used to verify the consistency and appropriateness of an existing manufacturing process. It plays a critical role in identifying any trends in the process further leading to process or product improvements. It is an evaluation which is prepared according to the CGMP requirements of different regulatory authorities. It is designed to minimize the risks involved in any pharmaceutical production that cannot be eliminated through testing the final product the content.
Why PQR?
Hence, to mitigate all such hassle, PQR Software, developed by Sarjen System offers automation and digitization of this manual process. PQR is a dossier which captures all the information about each batch of every product produced round the year. It turns the multipart Product Quality Review process into a relax manner. It abstracts, scrubs, and sorts large complex data from various departments and other ERP system which may be used by the company to provide key executive analytics.
Manual process takes lot of resources, time, and efforts go into its groundwork. Moreover, it takes hefty of time to prepare it. The process of generating an APQR/PQR becomes complex as it is a long-drawn, laborious and prone to errors. In other words, an area practically begging for automation of the process.
PQR goes beyond the basic regulatory requirements and provides users with organized analytics for critical functions. In doing this, it certainly promotes a value of continuous Product Quality Review.
PQR helps to assess changes required in the product specifications, manufacturing instructions, or other through change control procedures.
