FARMINGDALE,
NY (04-14-07): EtQ
has announced the release
of the EtQ eValidator, an
automated validation tool
that runs Process Qualification
(PQ) scripts in a matter
of minutes.
For companies regulated
by the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA), systems validation
is a necessary requirement
to ensure a secure environment.
The process of validation
an enterprise system involves
running test scripts at
the installation level,
the process level and
the operational level
(called IQ, PQ, and OQ,
respectively). These scripts
are often long and time
consuming, and can take
months, if not a whole
year to compile and run.
Recognizing this incredible
task of validation, EtQ
has released the eValidator
utility, which is designed
to automate the PQ process.
The eValidator is a comprehensive
set of commands that,
when executed, will run
the test scripts automatically,
and generate a full report
of the results of this
script.
"In a typical validation
scenario, the process
of running PQ scripts
can take a long amount
of time," says Mohammad
Nobani, President of EtQ,Inc.
"Using EtQ's
eValidator, a typical
workflow that would normally
take 3 hours to complete
can now be run, assessed
and approved in 3 minutes."
The ramifications of
the eValidator are staggering.
Streamlining the validation
process can have a tremendous
effect on both a company's
implementation time and
personnel resources. Using
eValidator to automate
the validation process
will cut a company's
validation time by as
much as 400% - a 4 day
validation project can
be done in less than a
day using EtQ's
eValidator. Furthermore,
the eValidator can be
run by a single employee,
and can eliminate the
extensive resources needed
to dedicate to a typical
validation project. Finally,
eValidator is able to
compile a comprehensive
report library of all
tests and scripts run
on the system. When audited
by the FDA or other governing
body, the validation reports
are immediately available
for review.
EtQ has plans to further
extend the eValidator
concept, in building validation
test scripts into EtQ's
planned configuration
management application,
allowing new workflows
and applications to immediately
generate and run a validation
test script. This concept
will not only allow the
management of configuration
made to the system, but
also enable validation
of these new configurations
almost immediately.
