Overview

The Quality Assurance (QA) department at Almac Pharma Services is integral to ensuring the safety, efficacy, and compliance of all pharmaceutical products we manufacture and distribute. QA supports the entire production process—from compiling batch records and procedures that govern operations, to assessing the impact when things don’t go as planned.

Our Teams

• Quality Operations: Ensures manufacturing, packaging, and distribution comply with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), Good Distribution Practice (GDP), and internal quality standards.
• Quality Compliance: Oversees the Pharmaceutical Quality System to ensure procedures and processes align with regulatory requirements.
• Product Quality: Verifies that each batch meets the required quality standards before it is certified for use.
• Technical Quality: Manages qualification and validation of systems and processes to maintain GMP compliance. This ensures operations are fit for purpose and ultimately safeguards patient safety.
