CPV Plan

Continued Process Verification Plan · continued process verification plan · stage 3 validation plan

In short

The Stage 3 process-validation document defining what data is collected, how it is trended, and how signals trigger investigation across a product's commercial lifetime.

A CPV Plan is the Stage 3 deliverable of FDA's process-validation lifecycle (and ICH Q8–Q12). It specifies the Critical Process Parameters (CPPs), Critical Quality Attributes (CQAs), and in-process attributes that must be trended commercially, the statistical rules used to detect drift, and the escalation path when a signal fires.

V5 runs the CPV plan as live SPC against every batch: trend rule breaches automatically create deviations and feed the Annual Product Review.

How V5 handles it
eBMR / eDHR — the batch record fills in as the work is done.
When operators record their work at the step, the batch record no longer has to be assembled afterwards. People review it and decide release.
21 CFR Part 11 — signatures and audit history your team can validate.
V5 supports electronic signing, audit history and validation evidence. Whether your use meets Part 11 is established by your own validation and procedures.
