Conference: Analytical Quality and Lifecycle Concepts
A Track Organised by the ECA Analytical Quality Control Group
25 November 2025
Background & Objectives
The ECA Analytical Quality Control Group (AQCG) aims at providing a networking platform for analytical chemists in development and manufacturing, quality control, regulatory affairs and quality assurance professionals in order to facilitate an active discussion of the impact of the latest regulatory changes as well as identifying and addressing technical issues and challenges.
The AQCG actively promotes harmonisation by:
- Providing guidance documents on topics of specific interest to Quality Control
- Developing discussion/position papers and generic procedures via expert working groups
- Facilitating an effective and efficient communication between industry, competent authorities and the pharmacopoeias regarding analytical quality control
One recent result of this work is the new Laboratory Data Management Guidance – Sampling and Sample Management. This document will be presented as part of the group’s one-day conference track, which will also cover a lot of other topics currently being addressed by the AQCG.
Target Audience
This conference track is intended for laboratory managers, supervisors and analysts, quality control managers, heads of quality control, qualified persons (QPs), analytical scientists, and senior laboratory staff. It is also relevant for professionals from quality assurance and contract laboratories, as well as representatives of regulatory authorities.
