Quality Architecture

Four Pillars of Regulatory Integrity

Engineered to withstand scrutiny from domestic drug authorities (CDSCO/FDCA) and global regulators (US FDA, EMA, WHO)

Pillar 01 • OperationscGLP Aligned

Good Laboratory Practice (cGLP)

Institutionalized quality management protocols ensuring every assay, dissolution study, and raw material clearance is executed per version-controlled standard operating procedures (SOPs).

Independent Quality Assurance Unit (QAU) auditing every study
Formal analyst qualification, method-specific sign-offs & blind testing
Traceable USP/EP/IP Primary Reference Standard inventory control
Pillar 02 • Digital SecurityElectronic Records

21 CFR Part 11 & Annex 11 Compliance

Closed-system architecture governing analytical chromatography software. Raw analytical data cannot be renamed, overwritten, deleted, or suppressed under any circumstance.

Role-based access: Analysts cannot modify integration algorithms or delete injections
Unalterable, time-stamped system and application audit trails
Unique biometric/password digital signatures legally binding per 21 CFR §11.50
Pillar 03 • Data GovernanceALCOA+ Framework

ALCOA+ Data Governance Principles

Comprehensive compliance across all 9 data integrity dimensions ensuring regulatory defensibility during US FDA, EMA, MHRA, and CDSCO sponsor submissions.

Testing Lifecycle

Our 5-Stage QMS Workflow

Traceable chain of custody from courier receipt to digitally signed Certificate of Analysis (CoA)

Step 01

Sample Inward & Chain of Custody

Inspected for container integrity, temperature-logging status & logged into inward ledger with unique LIMS sample identifier.

Step 02

Method Protocol & Suitability

Analyst confirms instrument calibration validity. System suitability sequence verified (RSD%, tailing, theoretical plates).

Step 03

Analysis Execution Under 21 CFR Part 11

Sequence runs in closed computerized environment. Every injection logged to server audit trail with time stamp.

Step 04

Four-Eye Data Verification

Primary analyst recalculates, Senior Reviewer checks raw chromatograms, and QA Manager inspects full audit log.

Step 05

Digitally Signed CoA Release

Tamper-evident Certificate of Analysis issued with QR verification, study reference, and complete raw data archival.

Regulatory Questions

Compliance & Data Integrity FAQs

How does Satvam Research guarantee 21 CFR Part 11 compliance for chromatography workstations?

All analytical workstations controlling our Shimadzu HPLC, Shimadzu GC-HS, and Lab India ICP-OES instruments run licensed chromatography software featuring multi-tiered, role-based user access controls (Analyst, Reviewer, QA Admin). System audit trails are enabled globally and cannot be disabled or edited. Every integration change, injection sequence, sample name, and recalculation generates an indelible timestamped log with analyst identity.

What is your data retention policy and backup schedule?

Analytical raw data, calibration curves, processing methods, and audit trails are archived automatically every 24 hours to secure, mirrored on-premise RAID servers with off-site encrypted redundancy. Data is preserved for a minimum of 7 years (or client-stipulated commercial retention periods) in compliance with international regulatory expectations.

Can our regulatory affairs or QA team conduct an on-site facility audit at Vapi?

Yes. We welcome prospective and existing clients to conduct formal vendor qualification and quality audits. Our facility includes a dedicated client audit conference suite with immediate access to unredacted SOPs, training dossiers, instrument IQ/OQ/PQ qualification binders, and live audit trail demonstrations.

How does Satvam Research investigate Out of Specification (OOS) and Out of Trend (OOT) test results?

We adhere strictly to US FDA guidance on Investigating Out-of-Specification (OOS) Test Results for Pharmaceutical Production. Any atypical result triggers an immediate Phase I laboratory investigation by an independent QA officer to rule out analytical or instrument error before any re-testing is authorized. Phase II investigations assess manufacturing or sampling roots in close collaboration with the sponsor.

Which pharmacopoeial compendia and international guidelines do you support?

We operate against current official editions of Indian Pharmacopoeia (IP), British Pharmacopoeia (BP), United States Pharmacopeia - National Formulary (USP-NF), European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur. / EP), Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP), Bureau of Indian Standards (IS: 10500:2012), and ICH Quality Guidelines (Q1A to Q6B).
