Dear Colleagues,

Congress passed legislation in 2012 known as FDASIA that directs FDA to conduct

do risk based inspections and allows them to collect records otherwise available on

inspection “in advance or in lieu of inspections”.

This is a PDA / FDA led conference focusing on Quality Metrics as a possible input

into FDA Inspectional Risk Model. This would allow FDA to better allocate their

inspectional resources and focus on higher impact areas. For a number of years

pharmaceutical companies have been utilizing metrics and scorecards to help

drive Quality and business improvements with varying degrees of success. This

conference will be an opportunity to hear from companies that have successfully

implemented Quality Metrics, and breakout sessions to discuss and share successful

implementation tips and preventing “unintended consequences”.

PDA is excited to add a regulatory perspective to this conference. This conference

is being co-lead by industry and FDA with the intent to broaden the discussion in

include potential regulatory aspects of Quality Metrics.

FDA will present their latest thinking on what they hope to achieve from Quality

Metrics and join in the dialog on discussing Quality Metrics in various breakout

sessions.

This will be a very interactive conference so come prepared for discussions on

Quality Metrics. This is an opportunity for PDA members to help shape new

potential regulatory requirements in the future.

Come join us for this timely and informative session on Quality Metrics, The

meeting will be held over a full two days at the Bethesda North Marriott, December

9-10, 2013.
