EDQM highlights international API inspection cooperation report

Official source date: · Source checked

EDQM highlights the 2017–2024 International API Inspection Programme report, describing information sharing and joint inspections among 13 authorities to strengthen GMP oversight and reduce duplication.

Who should review this?

API manufacturers, supplier-qualification teams and inspection-readiness leads.

What it means for pharmaceutical teams

The report concerns collaboration between authorities, including inspection planning and outcomes. It provides background for oversight discussions; supplier qualification still needs evidence about the actual manufacturing site.

Practical review checklist

PharmaEdges reading prompts for your own applicability review:

  • Read the report scope and participating-authority information.
  • Keep programme findings separate from individual supplier inspection evidence.
  • Review applicable supplier qualification records through your quality system.
