How to Handle Change Control Challenges

Change can bring either an opportunity or a setback, depending on how you handle it. This is true in life in general, but especially in regulated environments, where companies must contend with change constantly, such as evolving market conditions, stricter requirements, and tougher global competition. 

The principle of “change control” in ISO standards, GMP regulations, and CE Marking standards  is meant to help manufacturers ensure safe and high-quality products and services in spite of any changes in their product design, equipment, manufacturing materials, processes, computer systems, and all associated documentation.
