Many GMP, GCP, and GLP environments use spreadsheets for data management but in most cases, FDA requires validation to ensure consistency, accuracy, and reliability of records.
Flatworld is a reputed spreadsheet validation service providing company and has delivered 4500+ validation projects in compliance with 21 CFR 11 and Annex 11. We have a huge team of validation experts, testers, and other specialists to develop the comprehensive validation strategies that you require. We undertake an in-depth examination of your spreadsheet calculations, VBA script, and test macros to ensure that your spreadsheet is compliant, safe, and efficient.
Spreadsheet Validation Services We Offer
We offer full-stack spreadsheet validation and optimization solutions that can be customized as per your project needs.

Categorization
Proper categorization allows a quick overview and reduced effort in finding the required documents. Our team takes into account the GxP criticality and complexity factors along with GAMP guidelines to develop a categorization system for the validation of computer-aided systems. We assign spreadsheets under different categories such as risk-based or application-based and accordingly, we deploy the right validation approach for each category.

GMP Compliance and Security
Utilizing proven functions and macros, we implement the required security functions in MS Excel spreadsheets. The security functions include audit trail, verification functions for input cells to detect errors or fraud, and protection of non=-editable content.

Validation Optimization
Our team uses proven tools and standardized validation protocols for validation, testing, and reporting. Tools such as SOP and validation protocol are continuously optimized for easier application and improved reliability.

Periodic Verification
Regular verification of existing spreadsheets becomes vital for risk-based approach validation. Under this, our experts verify the spreadsheets after any change in software or hardware of the computer systems are done. The existing spreadsheets are compared with the standard ones and each verification is systematically recorded and compiled in the validation file for future reference.

Training
As a service provider, we also provide training and consultancy solutions for in-house implementation and adaptation of validation. For employee training, we extend all the know-how of the tools, our expert knowledge, and comprehensive coaching for a better understanding of the validation protocol.
