Operational Qualification (OQ)
z Formal Record that testing has proved that the
system can operate consistently and reliably
within the Limits set out in the FRS
z Tests need only address the GMP critical
Functions.
z Other non critical functions can be commissioned
and recorded to good engineering standards but do
not need to appear in the OQ

Performance Qualification (PQ)
z For Solid Dose HVAC generally replaced by the
ongoing procedures (SOPs) to be used to ensure
that the system stays within acceptance limits
during normal operation and over time.
z For Sterile HVAC the establishment of ongoing
microbial compliance during operation and the
regular monitoring and responses that ensure that
the system is within control limits during
manufacture including the measures that will
identify any faults.
