- The fabrication and assembly of the equipment and any auxiliary support systems by physical inspection and testing conforms to the parameters as defined in the URS and Design Qualification.
- All design Documents, specifications and test certificates are approved, available and accurate.
- Physical Inspection of the electrical hardware.
- Functional testing (including safety tests) of the equipment, with printouts for tests that require supporting documentation.
Scope
Acceptance criteria
- The design documents specifications and test certificates shall be approved and accurate. The electrical hardware shall comply with the approved design specifications.
- The individual tests performed shall conform to the agreed acceptance criteria.
- Any tests not performed (due to limitations of resources, complexity of the complete assembly of the equipment and complexity of the tests) during the FAT shall be performed during the SAT or OQ of the equipment at site and shall clearly indicate these tests.
- If any deviations from the approved protocol occur or the user requests any changes, these deviations shall be reviewed by the SAT or OQ execution team, agreed upon and then hand marked in the original protocol with initials and date.
- The vendor shall agree upon an action plan on the corrective actions with mutually agreed time frame.
- The FAT may be repeated fully or in part (related to the deviation observed) depending upon the impact of the deviation.

Qualification terms |
Definition |
User Requirement Specification (URS) |
User
Requirement Specifications (URS) are prepared for each critical utility or
piece of equipment prior to the manufacturing stage. The specification provides
a list of requirements for the planned system. The User Requirements
Specification specifies the needs of the end user as well as any regulatory requirements. |
Design
Qualification (DQ) |
Detailed
Design Specifications (DDS) are prepared for each critical utility or price of
equipment prior to the manufacturing stage. The specification provides a
detailed description of the utility or piece of equipment design based on the
Functional Requirement Specification (FRS) document. |
Factory
Acceptance Test (FAT) |
The
Factory Acceptance Test protocol provides documented evidence that a piece of
equipment, system or integrated process has been adequately tested at the manufacturer’s
facility and performed to the end user’s expectations prior to the piece of
equipment, system, or integrated process being delivered to the end user. |
Site
Acceptance Test (SAT) |
A
Site Acceptance Test protocol provides documented evidence that a piece of
equipment, system, or integrated process that has been delivered to the end user
has not been affected in the transportation and has been adequately tested at
the end user’s facility and performed to the end user’s expectations after Operational. |
Installation Qualification
(OQ) |
The
documented verification that the facilities, systems and equipment, as installed
or modified, comply with approved design and manufacturer’s recommendations. |
Operational
Qualification (OQ) |
The
documented verification that the facilities, systems and equipment as installed
or modified, perform as intended throughout the anticipated operating ranges. |
Performance
Qualification (PQ) |
The
documented verification that the facilities, systems and equipment, as
connected together, can perform effectively and reproducibly, based on the approved
process method and product specification. |
Standard
Operating Procedure (SOP) |
Standard
Operating Procedures (SOP) are prepared for each critical utility or piece of
equipment to provide all personnel working with the equipment information and
instructions on what is required in order to maintain, operate and clean the utility
or piece of equipment. |
Critical
Equipment / Parameter |
Describes
a process step, process condition, test requirements, or other relevant parameter
or item that must be controlled within predetermined criteria to ensure that the
product meets the specification. Non-Compliance to which would impact the product
or patient safety, stability or efficacy. |
Amendment |
Additional
data to an approved protocol and summary report that further substantiate and
clarify the original acceptance criteria. |
Validation / Qualification |
The
documented act of proving that any procedure, process equipment, material activity,
or system actually leads to the expected results. |
Re-qualification |
Re-qualification
is the repetition of the prospective qualification study or a specific
portion of the study to demonstrate that the system under investigation
operates as expected. |
