How Outsourcing Makes Pharmaceutical Quality Control Easier

Quality control is essential in any line of business. The products that a company puts out have to be held to a uniform standard and that standard must be high. For pharmaceutical manufacturers, quality control is even more important. People expect high standards from the pair of pants they try on at the mall, but those pants aren’t a matter of life or death.

Pharmaceutical products are. Quality control, from the very beginning of the process to the end is of the utmost importance. Ensuring that quality is not an easy task and it takes hard work and an uncompromising stance to make sure that the final products are of the highest quality and completely uniform.

How Outsourcing Helps

At Lifecycle, we know what a demanding process quality control can be because we put our own products and services through a rigorous quality control process. Unlike pharmaceutical manufacturers, our products don’t go straight to patients, but they do help pharma companies to manufacture the prescription drugs that fight disease and illness every day.

That’s why so many manufacturers and research labs rely on us to supply them with the products they need to operate. Outsourcing makes their jobs easier because it eliminates some of the steps in quality control.

Think of it this way. If you’re creating everything that goes into production of a certain drug at your facility, then you need quality control from start to finish. Everything that has a role in creating the finished product should be carefully controlled, but if you’re outsourcing some of those needs to a supplier, you’re also outsourcing some of those quality control needs. A trustworthy and experienced supplier delivers products that have already gone through quality control and are traceable at any time if there is an issue.

Why Choose Lifecycle

At Lifecycle, all our subsidiary companies have rigorous quality control in place. Whether you need solutions and reagents, serum albumin, or even medical-grade plastic containers, you can be sure what you’re getting will always be of the highest quality. For instance, the custom solutions and reagents we make at Chata Biosystems are all manufactured under Quality Management Systems certified to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 13485:2003 standards in our FDA site registered, and audited facility.

Having that peace of mind about essential components of your business creates a more flexible and streamlined process at your facility by eliminating not only the work involved in manufacturing those products yourself, but also the time spent performing quality control on those products.
