What Is Quality Assurance & Regulatory Compliance?

Quality Assurance (QA) refers to the systematic activities and framework implemented within a quality system to ensure that life‑science products consistently meet specified safety, efficacy, and regulatory requirements. This typically involves the development and maintenance of a Quality Management System (QMS), adherence to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), standard operating procedures (SOPs), and document control protocols

Regulatory Compliance involves strictly adhering to laws, guidelines, and standards enforced by regulatory authorities such as the FDA, EMA, and International Council for Harmonisation (ICH). It spans practices across GMP, GCP, ISO, and broader GxP frameworks, safeguarding product quality, patient safety, and legal conformity
