The Validation Master Plan is used for many different purposes by different companies and by different production sites within the same company. Within the countries governed by the Pharmaceutical Inspection Cooperation Scheme (PICS), there is a current move to define what is required of a VMP.

This book discusses these proposals and defines ways the VMP can be used to gain maximum benefit from a validation project. It describes the core-tool nature of the VMP, and ways to use if as a framework and hierarchy for all the documentation required within integrated engineering, procurement, construction, and validation projects. It clearly shows how tangible benefits can be gained by using the VMP this way.
