Comprehensive quality assurance for medicinal products in Switzerland

With our expertise, you will be leaving nothing to chance

Support and advice on quality assurance for your products

Are you planning to start distributing medicinal products in Switzerland with your company? Would you like to update your existing quality management system? Do you need support for upcoming inspections by the authorities or for processing audit findings? Do you have staff shortages in your quality assurance team? We can help you in all these cases. We can offer you strategic advice and practical support in setting up and maintaining your pharmaceutical company's quality management system. If you wish, a specialist from our team can take over the position of the responsible person (RP) in your company.

Responsible person

Every pharmaceutical company in Switzerland must have assigned a responsible person (RP). The RP is responsible for the direct technical supervision of the pharmaceutical company and must be present on site on a regular basis.
On request, a qualified specialist from our team can take on the role of the RP in your company to bridge short-term staff shortages or as a long-term solution.

Inspections and operating licenses

Every pharmaceutical company is inspected before being granted an establishment license, and at regular intervals thereafter. Swissmedic, in collaboration with the Cantonal inspectorates, is responsible for the inspection system in Switzerland and issues or amends establishment licences for pharmaceutical companies.
We are happy to support you in this regard:

Advice on the required authorization modules

Preparation of the application for an establishment license

Preparation for inspections and follow-up

Participation in an inspection

Audits/self-inspections

Pharmaceutical companies are obliged to audit their direct contractors before starting operations and at regular intervals thereafter. It must be ensured that the company complies with the applicable rules of good distribution practice (GDP) or good manufacturing practice (GMP).
We will carry out a GDP/GMP audit of your contractor on behalf of your company or support your audit department as an observer/co-auditor.

A pharmaceutical company should review all aspects of good distribution practice at regular intervals as part of a self-inspection program. Self-inspections can be divided into several individual self-inspections of smaller scope; they should be recorded in a self-inspection report.
Take advantage of the many years of experience of our qualified experts in the QA department to draw up a self-inspection plan for your company or to carry out a self-inspection in your company.

Quality management system

In order to ensure the quality and integrity of medicinal products, it is essential to describe tasks and processes in a functioning quality management system. We are happy to take over the creation, updating or review of important quality documents for you, such as

SOPs & Work Instructions

Quality/Technical agreements
