9 WHAT ARE RAW MATERIALS?
All materials that used into the manufacturing of a
finished bulk (even though it may not be present in
final product e.g. Certain solvents etc.) and which are
consumed by person using it are called as raw
materials.
Raw materials can be either active drug or inactive
substances.
eg. Hard gelatin capsules: even though it is used to
fill the blend of medicine, it is not considered as
package materials because it is consumed by person
using medicines.

U Selection of Vendors
® Purpose :-
It is designed to evaluate suppliers and
manufacturers with an implementation scheme to assure
regulatory compliance.
@ A system which assures that a supplier's product is
produced under controlled conditions, resulting in
consistent quality conformance.
® Require fully involvement and agreement of both partners.
® Vendor is classified by the finished dosage form
manufacturer relative to its credibility .
~
® Determine the selling price of the API from the vendor,
i.e. the cost to the finished dosage form manufacturer. This
information is needed for a profitability evaluation of the
finished pharmaceutical product
® Begin the actual process of vendor qualification —
evaluation of sample of API .
® The finished dosage form manufacturer should conduct a
vendor audit.
® Followings are too considered...
” Response to the quotations invited.
” The price is lowest or reasonable as compared to the
competitors,
and his reputation in the market.
® SOP and Record of Vendor
Certification
- Selection of Material based on ABC
analysis
- Selection of Vendor for above selected
material
1. Past history of supplies made by him
2. Trend of quality of material
3. Commitment to quality and delivery
dates

- Following process components should be studied with supplier
or manufactures
1. Study of suppliers mfg. process
2. Product specification and evaluation
3. Process evaluation
4, Process and specification changes & change control system
compliance
- Carried out and represent Formal technical audit report of
vendor.
- Based on audit finding vendor can be certified or decertified.

ㅁ Steps involved in vendor certification process
Selection of customer team : to define the objectives
& the potential benefits.
Supplier selection .
Initial supplier contacts.
Process elements: 1. supplier process.
2. specification
3. process evaluation
Process and specification changes.
Customer specification,
Supplier reporting : 1. certificate of compliance from
supplier
2. feedback form to supplier.
Decertification : lesser status of “ approved” or * preferred”
Adv. of certification process: - the tighter specification range.
- reducing testing by customer,

- cost reduction
SOP on receipt , storage sampling of materials.
Receipt of materials:
Visual examination for all incoming materials
Intact container, lid, seals
Evidence of any physical damage to the containers
Evidence of rodent or insect specification.
Proper labeling in specified manner
Points to be checked & recorded
Date of receipt
Name of product, batch no., control no. assigned
manufacturer.

CONTROL ON RAW MATERIALS:
2 Quality assurance should make periodic sanitation and
follow up to assure that deficiencies are corrected.
% Raw materials with abnormally high microbial
contamination may have to be subjected to a sterilization
procedure like heat treatment, radiation or cı ' stallization
from a bactericidal solvent like alcohol.
® Warchouses are the first operational area observed by the
auditor to check operational compliance with cGMP & FDA
regulation.
. Following elements need to be considered when
establishing warehouses operation:
cleanliness , floors , lighting & SOPs .
