Data Integrity: Ensuring Compliance and Data Integrity Throughout the Lifecycle
In regulated environments such as the pharmaceutical and medical device industries, complete Data Integrity Compliance and fulfillment of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements and international guidelines (such as FDA and EMA) are of critical importance. A violation of Data Integrity principles can result in severe consequences, including the revocation of marketing authorization. As a specialized GxP Life Science Partner, cube one GmbH supports you in ensuring the integrity of your data throughout its entire lifecycle.
What does Data Integrity mean in the GxP context?
Data Integrity refers to the completeness, consistency, and accuracy of data throughout its entire lifecycle. In GMP-regulated environments, this is the foundation for ensuring product quality and patient safety.
The internationally recognized standard for Data Integrity is the ALCOA principle, which still forms the core of all guidelines today:
- Attributable: Who captured the data, when, and why?
- Legible: Are the data understandable and permanent throughout the entire retention period?
- Contemporaneous: Were the data recorded at the time of the activity?
- Original: Is this the first record or a certified copy?
- Accurate: Are the data correct, precise, and error-free?
Our consulting goes beyond ALCOA and integrates the extended requirements such as completeness and availability to guarantee seamless compliance.
