Supplier Audits & Vendor Qualification Training Now Available On-Demand, Showing Dietary Supplement Manufacturers How To Avoid FDA 483S And Ensure GMP Compliance
Dublin, Nov. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "Supplier Audits & Vendor Qualification Training: Avoid FDA 483s and Ensure GMP Compliance (July 14th - July 16th, 2026)" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Research and Markets has made the recording of“Supplier Audits & Vendor Qualification Training: Avoid FDA 483s and Ensure GMP Compliance” available for on-demand purchase. The training, led by course provider Kelly Thomas, was held live from July 14 to July 16, 2026. Professionals can now work through the full programme at their own pace.
Supplier qualification is central to compliance with 21 CFR 111, the US dietary supplement GMP regulation. The FDA requires manufacturers to qualify each vendor but does not say how to do it. The same principles apply to subcontracted cGMP services. This training addresses that gap: any supplier qualification programme needs clearly defined requirements and objective evidence that those requirements are consistently met.

The core module covers the full supplier qualification process:
- Supplier selection and information gathering Desktop assessments and supplier audits Supplier transitions and sole-source suppliers Quality agreements Performance monitoring and scorecards Managing nonconforming events and partnering with suppliers for improvement
