(For IDMA Members only)
IDMA is pleased to announce the above awards for FORMULATION
units and for BULK DRUG units. The Policy Guidelines and Criteria are
as follows;
PURPOSE:
Producing high quality products is the foundation of IDMA’s mission.
Quality, being dynamic ensures that standards, facilities and practices have
to be continually upgraded and improved. IDMA’s scheme of Quality
Excellence helps recognise those member firms, achieving very high
standards by awarding them with a Gold or Silver status.
ELIGIBILITY:
It is essential that the participating units have been in production for
no less than 1 year and at the time of the visit by the panellists,
almost all sections should be running.
There will be no restriction on the number of production units of a
member company and also on the participation of the past winners of
the IDMA Quality Excellence Awards, who are requested to
participate to prove continual improvement.
AWARDS:
Gold Award
Silver Award
THESE AWARDS/SCHEMES ARE NOT COMPETITIVE

SELECTION:
The panel of experts will consist of a number of selected individuals with a
vast hand on knowledge and experience in Plant, Production and Quality
& Regulatory Affairs will visit the participating units between 31st
October and 15th December 2014. Their interaction with your executives is
crucial! The Panellists will make recommendations and suggest ways to
enhance safety and productivity. This will immensely benefit members who
are planning to go for National and International approvals requiring
constantly stricter requirements.
A suitable checklist will be made available to the unit, before the visit and
the discussion during the visit will be strictly confidential.
A transparent point rating system will choose awardees. Expenses for
travelling and staying arrangements for the experts have to be covered
by the participants. The expenses may be shared by the units concerned, in
case of the units being at one location during a visit. The visit would be
organised after consultation with the concerned units.
AWARD ANNOUNCEMENT:
The prestigious IDMA Awards will be presented by eminent
personalities during the IDMA Annual Day Function which will be held on
the 10th of January, 2015. The names of the awardees will be widely
publicised in the IDMA publications & other publications such as;
Medical, Trade & Export Journals, to allow maximum exposure of the
participating members.
We look forward to your enthusiastic response!
