Detailed History
ISPE was founded in 1980 by a group of pharmaceutical engineers. The organization was created to provide a forum for professionals to share knowledge and best practices in an industry that was becoming increasingly regulated. ISPE’s focus on operational excellence, quality, and compliance has made its guides an essential resource for companies and regulators alike. The GAMP 5 guide for computerized systems is a prime example of their influence in establishing industry-wide benchmarks for validation.
