Hi Timmy

  • Reviewing and approving the validation policy, validation guidelines and validation procedural controls.

  • Reviewing the computer system validation work and documentation and signing to verify the correct execution of the validation plan, protocols, and summary report for computer systems performing regulated operations.

  • Assessing the compliance of computerized systems to the validation policy, validation guidelines, validation procedural controls, and to related predicate regulations.

  • Auditing and readiness of a computer system for a regulatory inspection

  • Documenting the results of audits in QA audit reports.

  • Ensuring that any audit report issues are resolved

  • Organizing capability assessments on external and internal suppliers

Hope that makes it clear
