Biopharma systems and processes are outlined in the introductory section of this monograph. A new knowledge management (KM) paradigm is then described, beginning with an analysis of United States and European Union regulatory requirements, and of prevailing commissioning and qualification (C&Q) and quality risk management (QRM) guidance from the International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE) and International Council for Harmonisation (ICH).

The KM paradigm is a response to the expectation that C&Q and QRM be integrated and accelerated, on urgent fast-track projects (the new normal) in particular. It is based on pattern recognition, and on the insight that process-related critical quality attributes (CQAs) and critical process parameters (CPPs), and plant-related critical aspects (CAs, or functions) and critical design elements (CDEs, or components), are best managed via a previously unrecognized fundamental object called quality quartet, comprising CQA:CPP:CA:CDE parts. Several well-established and universally accepted benchmarks are listed in support of the paradigm.
