Continued Process Verification concept was launched a decade ago when FDA launched the Guidance for Industry on Process Validation. Its effective implementation brings enormous advantages but also significant risks if non-integrated tools are used (e.g. data is collected from multiple sources, analyzed in a separate software and then compiled into a report format). Furthermore, the need to continually monitor the process is not compatible with practical and efficient practices in case a non-integrated set of tools is used. A real industry case of implementation of a digital fully integrated CPV program is presented, covering aspects related to data mapping, systems integration, use of a risk-based approach to define and refine CPV plan and project business value generation.
