Cases
The following are some cases which
due to violations of GMP
1. The gentamicin sulphate case in which
unknown contamination leads to total
around 65 death in USA in 1994 and
1999.
2. The heparin case in 2008, causing
around 150 fatalities in the US due to
deliberate contamination of the API with
a Bogus substance.

Conclusion
Vendor plays very important role in manufacturing of
product.
Approved vendor must have license from regulatory
agencies
All the documents, reports and contracts must have
approved by authority body from the organization.
Contract must have approved from both the parties
vendor and company.
COA and IHS report must be in the specification limit
and complies with standard.
The classification of vendor is accordingly their
satisfactory results of material.
To avoid complaints and product related problem vendor
must be validated which gives better result and save
time and money.
