The Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) is a voluntary supply chain security program led by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). It is intended to improve the security of supply chains of private enterprises against the threat of terrorism.
FDA guidelines are very specific in terms of how computer systems are to be managed, and each company should have a specific strategy and methodology, along with a set of rigorous tactical processes and procedures that prescribe how organizational change should be managed.
In this webinar expert speaker Carolyn Troiano will focus on the key aspects of organizational change management, including best practices and principles for handling this key component of project work in an FDA-regulated environment (i.e., the system “touches” product during the manufacturing, testing or distribution of the product, or during any other functional activity). The material will include the various aspects of change management, including planning, execution, assessment and feedback. The result will be a prescriptive approach to helping teams and individuals reach a higher level of acceptance to change. This session will provide an overview of the Customs and Trade Partnership Against Terrorism.
