πΏπ² ValiPro: ZAMRA, WHO GMP & ZAZIBONA Process Validation Services
Achieve Compliance and Secure Product Registration in Zambia with ZAMRA-Ready Validation Documentation.
ValiPro provides expert Process Validation Protocol and Report services tailored for manufacturers targeting the Zambian market. Our documentation is built for full compliance with the rigorous standards of the Zambia Medicines and Medical Devices Agency (ZAMRA), the central regulatory authority, which strongly enforces WHO Good Manufacturing Practices (WHO GMP) Guidelines and mandates submissions in the Common Technical Document (CTD) format.
We specialize in supporting manufacturers of human and veterinary medicines, APIs, and medical devices, ensuring their validation packages secure timely ZAMRA approvals, minimize review deficiencies, and support successful participation in the ZAZIBONA collaborative assessment procedure.
π Why ZAMRA-Ready Validation is Crucial
ZAMRA is responsible for the regulation and control of medicines and medical devices in Zambia. Compliance with their standards is mandatory for market entry and is strictly aligned with international best practices and regional agreements.
WHO GMP Mandate: ZAMRAβs regulatory framework adopts and enforces WHO GMP guidelines. Your process validation documentation must conform precisely to these detailed international standards (e.g., WHO TRS Annex 3).
CTD Submission Format: Product registration dossiers must be submitted in the Common Technical Document (CTD) format. We ensure your validation reports are correctly presented in Module 3 (Quality), aligning with the regional structure required.
ZAZIBONA and SADC Alignment: Zambia is a key participant in the ZAZIBONA regulatory reliance network. A robust validation dossier is crucial for successful collaborative assessment and market access across the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region.
GMP Inspection: Foreign manufacturing sites must hold a valid GMP certificate recognized by ZAMRA, often involving an inspection or reliance on recognized SRA (Stringent Regulatory Authority) reports. Our strong validation reports are key evidence of the manufacturing site's state of control.
π― ZAMRA Compliance Focus: Who We Support
We work closely with manufacturers and their local representatives in Zambia who need:
Pharmaceutical Exporters: Targeting human and veterinary drug registration with ZAMRA.
GMP Conformance: Overseas facilities seeking ZAMRA GMP Certification (based on WHO GMP) for importation permits.
CTD Module 3 Quality: Preparation of the Quality Module ensuring that all manufacturing and control data, including process and cleaning validation, meets ZAMRA expectations.
Regulatory Responses: Firms addressing technical deficiencies or quality queries issued by ZAMRA assessors, particularly those arising from ZAZIBONA assessments.
