Become a Sponsor and/or Exhibitor

What are most important positive quality culture behaviors that impact product quality?

Can you identify which mature quality attributes have the biggest impact on quality culture behavior?

Would you like to quantify the strengths and weaknesses of quality culture maturity at your plant site?

Take the first step on a journey to transform your Quality Culture with resources developed by PDA volunteers specifically for pharmaceutical manufacturing sites.

Following a successful pilot conducted over the last 18 months, PDA is pleased to launch the Quality Culture Transformation Resources to the industry.

When you enroll in this new program, PDA will train your assessors, teach you how to use the Maturity Model, offer an anonymous survey to your site staff and give you access to PDA’s composite benchmarking results so you know where you stand with your peers.

Your site leadership will be able to gauge employees’ views of quality culture and have a better understanding of where to take action, how to track progress, and which decisions to take to improve the site culture.

Who Should Attend

This program will benefit pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical manufacturing leaders who want to measure quality culture maturity at their plant sites and identify areas for improvement.

It will also prepare your assessors to conduct site evaluations in a consistent and verifiable manner using the PDA Model and Tools.
