And you will he happy and satisfied by my Product. Now its my responsibility to assure the supply of the claimed Quality (this, this and this) product to the customer. But by just controlling Manufacturing operation or person…..I can never assure my customers about Quality which I claimed. I must have to look and control over everything related to the making of product like  Raw Material Quality  Ancillary Material Quality  Operational Quality  Equipment and Instrument Quality  Persons engaged in whole operation (Store, QC, QA, Production, Logistics, IT)  Manufacturing and testing Quality etc.. Quality Square Industry Ltd
• 5.  If I miss to take care any of them, then I cannot give the assurance of my product. And if customer is not happy by my product, I will lose him……. So to make my customer Happy and Satisfied with my product……Quality Assurance will work over overall manufacturing of my Product.

• 7. ISO(International Organization for Standardization) It work in favor of customer Its focus is on product Quality ISO consists more Business operations Optional GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) It works in favor of Manufacturer Its focus is on Manufacturing GMP consists of more technical operations Mandatory If you have GMP  20 – 30 % more work needed to get ISO If you have ISO  65 – 75 % more work needed to get GMP That work and required more work will be the great effort of the QUALITY ASSURANCE Quality Square Industry Ltd
• 8. Quality Assurance is a dynamic process It is a journeytowards the destination
• 9.  According to QA, products are designed and developed in a way that takes account of the requirements of GMP and other associated codes such as those of good laboratory practice (GLP) and good clinical practice (GCP). Product and control operations are clearly specified in a written form and GMP requirements are adopted. Arrangements are made for the manufacture, supply and use of the correct starting and packaging materials. All necessary controls on starting materials, intermediate products, and bulk products and other in-process controls, calibrations, and validations are carried out.
