by The computer system validation (CSV) involves ensuring that computer systems used in regulated processes meet specifications and perform correctly throughout their lifecycle. It is a multistage process used to ensure and document that a system conforms to user needs, and it is fitted for its intended uses. It includes user requirement specifications (URS), functional requirement specifications (FRS), system design specifications (SDS), and validation master plan (VMP). The increasing regulatory pressures and quality standards across industries such as pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical devices are driving the adoption of CSV solutions globally. CSV solutions reduce compliance risks and ensures that critical systems perform consistently and accurately.
The global Computer System Validation Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 3.73 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 10% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
