In the previous article we got the introduction of Computer system validation, along with the approach objective and requirement. Furthermore we will see the importance of Computer System Validation (CSV) in Pharmaceutical Industry.
Why computer system validation (CSV) is important?
Computer system validation (CSV) is a compliance activity, documented evidence “To ensure that a computer system consistently performs as intended in a specific environment including its hardware, software. And it is also required to ensure those particular computers systems are being used in the process / activity are fit for their intended purpose and are in the state of compliance of regulatory requirements.
CSV is an important activity in regards of;
1. Regulatory Compliance:
CSV is important activity in Pharmaceutical industry, this is subject to regulatory requirements. Regulatory bodies, such as the FDA, EMA, and others ask organizations to validate computer systems to ensure compliance with respect to the established regulations. Non-compliance can lead to severe penalties, legal consequences, and damage to the organization's reputation
2. Data Integrity and security:
CSV activity is suggested to ensure the integrity, accuracy, and reliability of data stored and processed within computer systems.
Validating systems helps to identify and mitigate risks associated with unauthorized access, data breaches & loss of information. Protecting data integrity and security is crucial for maintaining trust, confidentiality, and compliance with privacy regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation
3. Risk Mitigation:
Computer systems play a crucial role in critical processes, such as manufacturing, testing, and data management, within regulated industries.
CSV helps identify and mitigate risks associated with system failures, data integrity issues, security breaches, and other potential hazards, minimizing the impact on product quality, patient safety, and business operations.
4. Organizational Efficiency and Effectiveness:
Regulators frequently conduct inspections and audits to assess an organization's compliance with regulatory requirements. A well-documented and executed CSV process enhances an organization's readiness for such inspections, demonstrating a proactive approach to compliance and a commitment to quality.
CSV helps to an organization to improve the efficiency and productivity by ensuring that computer systems are used effectively and efficiently.
For example, if a computer system is not validated, it could potentially be used in a way that is does not provide the accurate data, which is not in the favor of organization’s efficiency and productivity. It could lead the waste of time & water of resources.

In summary, computer system validation (CSV) is important because it ensures regulatory compliance, mitigates risks, enhances product quality and patient safety, ensures business continuity, and prepares organizations for regulatory inspections.
By implementing robust CSV practices, organizations can implant confidence in their systems, processes, and products, ultimately benefiting the organization.
