“I attended both NSF-DBA’s FDA inspection Readiness and Corrective Action Management modules and our company assiduously implemented the recommendations made. I am absolutely convinced that doing so was one of the primary reasons our company did not receive an FDA Form 483 following an FDA unannounced 4-day GMP inspection”
