The FDA Group delivers comprehensive mock PAI audits to help pharmaceutical and biologics companies prepare for this critical regulatory milestone. Our team of former FDA investigators and industry experts conducts rigorous simulations that accurately reflect current FDA inspection approaches, focus areas, and expectations for pre-approval inspections. We identify potential compliance vulnerabilities and provide actionable recommendations to strengthen your readiness before the actual FDA inspection occurs.
The pre-approval inspection represents a critical gateway for bringing new products to market, with significant business implications tied to the outcome. Our approach to mock PAIs focuses on creating realistic scenarios that challenge your team and systems in the same ways FDA investigators will during the actual inspection. We evaluate your facilities, quality systems, and application-specific elements against current regulatory expectations, helping you address gaps before they become inspection observations.
Our mock PAI services include, but are certainly not limited to:
Thorough evaluation of manufacturing facilities, equipment, and systems against PAI expectations.
Critical examination of submitted information against on-site reality to identify potential data integrity concerns.
In-depth assessment of process validation documentation, data, and implementation.
Detailed review of testing methods, data, and controls referenced in your application.
Realistic interview scenarios to prepare staff for interaction with FDA investigators.
Evaluation of quality systems with a focus on elements critical to application approval.
Comprehensive documentation of observations with remediation recommendations and optional execution support.
