5 Keys to Supplier/Purchasing Controls – And Product Quality
The growth of combination products in the market, as well as new quality and regulatory standards that apply to them, are driving the increased significance of suppliers. Every drug device combination product will utilize third parties for various services, constituent parts, or other components. In this article, Fran DeGrazio lays out five foundational considerations for implementing an effective supplier/purchasing controls process.
