THE GOLD STANDARD IN THIRD-PARTY CERTIFICATION AND TESTING : +1-800-920-6605, info@bscg.org
BSCG Certified GMP provides onsite audits to verify that manufacturers are in compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). The BSCG Certified GMP program verifies that facilities involved in production of dietary supplements, natural products, nutrition/food items, cosmetics/creams, homeopathic medicine, medical devices (patches), or related items comply with the requirements as set forth in the relevant code. 21 C.F.R. 111, 117 applies to dietary supplements, 210 and 211 applies to drugs, or GMP cosmetic guidelines are applied to products qualified as such. Other relevant national or international quality control guidelines may be considered in place of GMP or in addition to GMP. Onsite audits of the facilities involved in manufacturing, packaging, or holding evaluate the various subparts of GMP, or related standards, as they would typically be considered in the course of a regulatory audit. Our experienced auditors go above and beyond checklist style auditing to focus on key elements that have been the focus on FDA scrutiny. Onsite audits are conducted once every two years for each facility.
