Risk-based assurance for regulated digital systems
CSV to CSA Knowledge Hub translates complex regulatory and industry guidance into practical learning for life sciences professionals. Explore computer system validation, computer software assurance, 21 CFR Parts 11 and 820, EU GMP Annex 11, GAMP 5, data integrity, and AI assurance. Content is educational, evidence-informed, and designed to support defensible decisions—not replace company procedures or regulatory advice.
CSV establishes documented evidence that a system consistently performs as intended. CSA applies critical thinking and risk-based testing so effort is concentrated on functions that can affect product quality, patient safety, and data integrity.
Understand expectations for electronic records and signatures, trustworthy data, system controls, and quality-system governance within FDA-regulated operations.
Explore lifecycle controls for computerized systems, including validation, security, audit trails, supplier oversight, business continuity, and reliable electronic records.
Use scalable lifecycle activities, supplier assessment, risk-based specifications, testing, change control, and governance to build confidence without unnecessary documentation.
Define intended use, assess data and model risks, establish human oversight, control changes, monitor performance, and preserve traceability across the AI lifecycle.
Turn principles into action with checklists, decision trees, examples, and implementation patterns for quality, validation, IT, engineering, and business teams.
A practical decision lens for regulated software
Start with intended use and risk. Apply the most rigorous assurance to functions that could affect product quality or patient safety. Use proportionate evidence for lower-risk functions, leverage supplier knowledge where justified, and maintain control through change.
