![]() Tools, Checklists, and Examples 15 Aligned with the ISPE Cultural Excellence Report (April 2017) Building on approaches and principles from GAMP 5 and the GAMP Record and Data Integrity Guide Building on GAMP® 5, the GAMP Record and Data Integrity Guide, and the Cultural Excellence Report Selected Topics and Highlights… The following GAMP 5 software and hardware categories are used to establish the validation approach and determine the deliverables: Category 1 – Infrastructure Software Category 3 – Non-Configured Products Category 4 – Configured Products Category 5 – Custom Applications Hardware Category 1 – Standard Hardware Components GAMP 5 Category 4: MasterControl Product Positioning. c) Category 3 deals with Non-configured products. d) Category 4 deals with configured products GAMP has enjoyed the support of numerous regulatory authorities over the years spanning the United States, Europe, and Japan and is now a recognized good practice worldwide. To appreciate the scope of these changes fully we need to look at the classification of software from GAMP 4 and compare this with GAMP 5.In the beginning, or at least… GAMP® Software Category Definitions. These categories kept evolving to accommodate changes in the system of pharmaceutical companies. First, let’s define the Software Categories within the GAMP 5 Guidelines. ![]() GAMP Category 3 – Non Configurable Software Configuration relates to adding functionality through standard modules, library items to standard software applications to meet the business requirements. The GAMP 5 standard, allows a degree of flexibility when applying validation to the great variety of medical devices, processes, and manufacturing facilities, since it is not possible to state in one document all of the specific validation elements that are applicable. Soon afterwards the organization entered into a partnership with ISPE, formally becoming part of ISPE in 2000. Since 1991, there have been 5 categories in GAMP. The approach matured in the 2005 ISPE GAMP® Good Practice Guide: A Risk-Based Approach to Compliant Electronic Records and Signatures with incorporation of aspects of ISO 14971 Medical Devices – Appli- The development of the GAMP 5 risk man-agement approach has its antecedents in the FMEA-based risk assessment tool published in GAMP 4 in 2001. ![]() a) Category 1 deals with infrastructure software. GAMP good practices vary depending on the type of software in question and the amount of risk associated with it. GAMP suggests the identification and evaluation of risks Category 4: Configured Software (includes COTS systems that can be configured as per business processes as well as customized) Category 5: Custom Software Note: “Firmware” was earlier classified as “Category 2” under GAMP 4. This classification was removed under GAMP 5. Software Classification CategoriesComparison of software categories in GAMP 4 and GAMP 5As I mentioned earlier, the software categories in GAMP 5 have been revised. To appreciate the scope of these changes fully we need to look at the classification of software from GAMP 4 and compare this with GAMP 5. 1 GAMP®5 Quality Risk Management Sion Wyn Conformity + (0) 1492 642622 GAMP 4 was released a year later, followed by GAMP 5 in 2008.
