The biopharmaceutical industry continues to develop advanced best practice manufacturing processes, systems, technologies and facilities. However, we experience varying degrees of understanding and confidence across manufacturers and regulators. This can lead to uncertainty that proposed improvements will be accepted and successfully implemented in an aligned way. Therefore, to avoid perceived issues, best practice can end up being diluted, or solutions over-engineered. Ultimately, innovation and improvement is slowed, presenting a challenge to realize potential benefits such as speed to market, supply assurance and cost.
To address this, the BioPhorum Regulatory Governance Team recommends, facilitates and supports an ongoing platform of informal dialogue with agencies, offering industry views and listening to wider agency perspectives, prior to implementation. We are well placed to share industry positions on priority topics with agencies and solicit feedback by developing contacts with regulators and associated standard organizations, across the regulatory networks of member companies.
