The biopharmaceutical industry has adapted to reflect available technologies such as single-use technologies and modular construction methodologies, products with more focused patient populations, evolving regulatory conditions, unrelenting pressures on costs, and increased focus on robust product supply while maintaining high-quality standards. This Guide presents concepts that reflect how these changes affect biopharmaceutical manufacturing facilities without sacrificing product quality, by reducing risk and enhancing the manufacturing control strategy.

This revised Guide builds on the original principles of ISPE’s Baseline® Guide Volume 1, Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, (originally entitled Bulk Pharmaceutical Chemicals). The ISPE API Baseline Guide also incorporates and builds on new regulations and guidance

The ISPE Baseline Guide: OSD Forms is intended to offer a tool for consistent framework for regulatory interpretation, while still allowing a flexible, innovative, and compliant approach to facility design, construction, commissioning, and qualification. This approach is intended to allow manufacturers to better serve their customers by helping reduce costs and improve product quality.

The ISPE Baseline® Guide: Risk-Based Manufacture of Pharmaceutical Products (Risk-MaPP) Second Edition provides a scientific risk-based approach, based on ICH Q9 Quality Risk Management, for managing the risk of cross-contamination within shared facilities. Risk management processes should be used to determine and document reasonable and acceptable risk, in order to maintain product quality and operator safety and to satisfy regulatory requirements.

The ISPE Baseline Guide® Water and Steam Systems (Third Edition) aims to assist with the design, construction, operation, and lifecycle management of new and existing water and steam systems. It is intended to help meet Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and comply with regulations and related guidance.
