Installation Qualification (IQ) Protocol and Report in Pharmaceuticals.
Installation Qualification:- Systems and equipment should be correctly installed in accordance with an installation plan and installation qualification protocol. Requirements for calibration, maintenance and cleaning should be drawn up during installation. Installation qualification should include identification and verification of all system elements, parts, services, controls, gauges and other components. Measuring, control and indicating devices should be calibrated against appropriate national or international standards, which are traceable.
There should be documented records for the installation (installation qualification report) to indicate the satisfactoriness of the installation, which should include the details of the supplier and manufacturer, system or equipment name, model and serial number, date of installation, spare parts, relevant procedures and certificates. Systems and equipment should be appropriately designed, located, installed, operated and maintained to suit their intended purpose.
Critical systems, i.e. those whose consistent performance may have an impact on the quality of products, should be qualified. These may include,where appropriate, water purification systems, air-handling systems, compressed air systems and steam systems.
