Due Diligence - More

We can tailor our investigations to any particular client's requirements.
The following points can serve as guidelines:-

    What is the level of operational and GMP compliance?
    Are process, material, and personnel flows in compliance
    with regulatory requirements.
  • Management Team and Structure -
    Suitability, strengths, weaknesses, capability, stability,
    succession planning.
  • Products and Processes -
    Do they comply with specifications and regulatory requirements?

    Do they work? Are they straightforward?
    Do they meet regulatory requirements?
  • Health & Safety -
    What is the company's policy, track record, record keeping,
    potential future liabilities?

    satisfy regulatory standards?
