Deviations
Planned and Unplanned deviations from approved procedures can potentially affect quality, and therefore, compliance, especiatlly if you are a Pharmaceutical company, or contract laboratory. Also called out-of-specification (OOS) results, deviations can occur during raw material and finished product acceptance, sampling and testing, manufacturing, or product distribution.
While it’s impossible to completely avoid deviation, the FDA expects pharmaceutical companies to manage both planned and unplanned deviations.
