FDA Regulatory Strategic Planning
- What are mdi’s FDA Regulatory Strategic Planning
Services?
- Given that we understand the FDA regulatory
process, we can craft a regulatory strategy based on your situation.
This strategy will include thinking through what actions you take, in
which order you take them, what you document, how to implement your
quality systems, etc.
- How can mdi assist you?
- Many clients underestimate the economic value of a
carefully thought out FDA regulatory strategy. Because of our
experience and understanding of the FDA, through careful planning we
can help you to:
1. Plan for an FDA investigation and guide
you in responding to the Agency and their concerns.
2. Properly manage recalls. Recalls can be very costly and
cause terrible damage to your reputation. Identifying and
implementing actions for a recall that would be acceptable to the
Agency can save money, your reputation and duplication of efforts.

FDA Quality System Strategy
- What are mdi’s FDA Quality System Strategy Services?
- Assuring FDA compliance to quality system
requirements is critical for the success for all companies. The
quality system requirements are defined by cGMP (Current Good
Manufacturing Practices) guidelines which are specified by the FDA.
- The process by which to achieve compliance to these
requirements is different for each company. For example, large
companies may need to prioritize geographically-different operations
based on size/importance and implement systems accordingly. A smaller
company may need to prioritize which elements of the quality system to
implement first) in order to get in compliance quickly.
- How can mdi assist you?
- Making these types of decisions requires thought
and planning because these decisions will affect the speed and cost of
the total implementation, potential savings that could be realized
through a quality system implementation and the level of comfort the
FDA will have that you are implementing a compliant quality system.
