Overcoming calibration challenges in GxP
Calibration deadlines slipping? Vendors out of sync? Certificate overload?
Calibration can be a labor-heavy and risk-filled process. Join us for a session where we explore the main challenges of calibration in GxP and the practical steps to overcome them.
Certificate overload and missing data
Calibration certificates pile up, and auditors often find gaps: missing uncertainty values, no reviews of certificates, or incomplete traceability.
Unclear sensor calibration intervals
Annual calibration is not always the answer. Regulators expect risk- and reliability-based intervals – something most QA teams lack the time and tools to prove.
Out-of-tolerance (OOT) management
When devices drift, auditors often ask how the impact was assessed, and teams can lack a clear process for this and corrective actions.
Multi-site process inconsistency
Different sites and vendors often follow different calibration practices, leading to gaps, higher costs, and inconsistent audit outcomes.
Calibration is a common compliance headache in GMP and GDP
QA teams must keep track of device status, ensure timely calibration, manage vendors, document and store certificates, and retrieve records buried in a million different systems (and filing cabinets).
At the same time, inspectors raise questions about calibration types, chosen points, uncertainty, traceability, and accreditation – questions that are often complex and resource-heavy to answer.
The result? Calibration drains time, creates compliance risks, and remains a frequent source of audit findings.
In this webinar, we explore the core calibration challenges in GxP environments and share practical strategies to overcome them.
Key takeaways
