RISK ANALYSIS
FMEA and HACCP
Risk Management
STEP 1- RISK ASSESSMENT
What might go wrong? (Risk identification)
What is the likelihood it will go wrong? (Risk Analysis)
What are the consequences and how severe? Could we know
of the risk? (Risk Evaluation)
Risk Management in
non-pharma Industry
In non-pharmaceutical industry, competition is very
high: Customer demands constantly change and new
products are developed fast.
New Product strategy integrates with customers
requirements, long term sales, product/process
designs, process improvement, marketing and customer
services to assure customer satisfaction.
The final objectives of the above activities are fulfilling
customer needs with high quality products and services.
RISK MANAGEMENT is built into all these activities.
The non-pharmaceutical quality system is referred to as
the “modern” quality system in the 21th Century
initiative.

FMEA
FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) is an engineering
technique used to define, identify, and eliminate potential
failures, problems, error etc from design, system, process,
and services before reaching the customers.

HACCP
HACCP= Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Point
Seven-Step HACCP -1
Conduct a hazard analysis. Prepare a list of steps in
the process where significant hazards can occur
and describe the preventive measures.
Identify the Critical Control Points (CCPs) in the
process.
Establish critical limits for preventive measures
associated with each identified CCP.
Establish CCP monitoring requirements. Establish
procedures for using the results of monitoring to
adjust the process and maintain control.
Seven-Step HACCP -2
Establish corrective actions to be taken when
monitoring indicates that there is a deviation from
an established critical limit.
Establish effective record-keeping procedures that
document the HACCP system.
Establish procedures for verification that the
HACCP system is working correctly.

HACCP Application in
Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
HACCP is applicable to pharmaceutical
manufacturing, especially for microbiological
contamination hazard to provide a knowledge-base
for designing microbial contamination controls
The HACCP program can be comprehensive by
evaluating the whole manufacturing operation, or
specific by implementing only on specific
operations.
The program requires a knowledgeable
microbiologist to perform the evaluation of
microbial contamination hazards.
Example
Study manufacturing flow chart and facility design
layout drawings.
Visit the sites where the process steps are
conducted and observe the operations.
Identify known or potential hazards of microbial
contamination contributed by:
● Design and construction of the facility and
equipment
● Operations performed by machines and
● Operations performed by persons.
Score each hazard contributed by the three sources
as: 0 =no hazard, 1 = slightly hazardous, 2 =
hazardous, 3 = very hazardous.
Plan for corrections/modification, adding control
measures, or training of personnel.
