Document Readiness and Controlled Records

A controlled index of SOPs, batch records, validation files, training records, deviations, CAPAs, and change controls is available and reflects current document status.
Sample records requested by the inspection team can be located and produced within 5 minutes without uncontrolled searching.
Selected batch records show no missing critical entries, unresolved corrections, or absent required signatures.
Open and closed deviations, CAPAs, and change controls are current, traceable, and supported by documented closure evidence where applicable.
Training records for operators, supervisors, and designated inspection responders are current and demonstrate role-appropriate qualification.
Equipment qualification, process validation, cleaning validation, and method validation summaries are organized and accessible for review.
Procedures and evidence supporting audit trails, access control, record review, and ALCOA+ expectations are available for inspection.

Front Room Setup and Inspector Experience

The room contains only inspection-related materials, with no personal items, obsolete documents, or unrelated work in view.
Adequate seating, table space, and power access are available for inspectors, note takers, and controlled document review.
A functioning printer/scanner or equivalent controlled document handling process is available for rapid response to document requests.
Visitor badges, sign-in procedures, escort rules, and restricted area boundaries are clearly defined and enforced.
Non-requested confidential information is secured or removed from view to prevent accidental disclosure.
Clear signage identifies the inspection room, restrooms, emergency exits, and any restricted access points.
Exit routes from the front room are unobstructed and clearly marked in accordance with fire-life-safety expectations.

Back Room Response Coordination

Roles for lead coordinator, document runner, SME support, note taker, and escalation contact are assigned and understood.
All questions, document requests, and commitments are logged with time, owner, status, and follow-up due date.
Only the designated lead or approved delegate provides responses to inspectors to prevent inconsistent statements.
Subject matter experts for quality, manufacturing, engineering, validation, and EHS can be reached within the site response target.
Escalation contacts for quality leadership, site leadership, legal/regulatory, and corporate support are documented and current.
The team has reviewed guidance on pausing to verify facts, avoiding speculation, and committing only to supported follow-up responses.

Facility Walkthrough and Operational Readiness

Aisles, work surfaces, and storage areas are free of clutter, obsolete materials, and uncontrolled WIP that could create a deficiency.
Equipment is clearly labeled with current status such as in service, under maintenance, cleaned, or quarantined as applicable.
Critical instruments and production equipment have current calibration or preventive maintenance status with no overdue items in the inspection path.
Required PPE is posted at entry points and available for visitors and staff entering controlled areas.
Visible process parameters relevant to the inspection route are within approved limits and supported by current records.
Known deficiencies in areas likely to be observed have been assessed, assigned, and documented with interim controls where needed.

Inspection Conduct, Communication, and Follow-Up

The team has reviewed roles, escalation rules, response discipline, and the current inspection agenda before inspector arrival.
Any promised documents, clarifications, or corrective actions are logged with an owner and target completion date.
Observed deficiencies or potential non-conformances are escalated through the site response process without delay.
A post-inspection debrief is scheduled to review observations, commitments, and corrective action ownership.
If required by site procedure, the inspection record is signed by the inspector or designated site representative.
