However, the current travel measures put in place in the context of Covid-19 no longer allow the carrying out of this test… Or at least, not in that form!
The Solution
Thanks to today’s communication technology, an online FAT protocol has been created between customer and Pharma Technology.
This protocol ensures that all aspects of a standard FAT are verified as in a “face to face” meeting. All needed documents were submitted prior to the online FAT for engineer’s reviews and comments
On the day of the FAT inspection process, the iCaps “HC” High Containment unit was installed in a professional FAT numeric studio to conduct the test with the representatives. Throughout this process, documents were shared and inspected, while remotes high-quality camera were transmitting the tests live.
