Post Approval Changes
Post approval changes are part of product lifecycle. After getting the approval for manufacturing or import, the organization may propose some changes either due to market needs or business reasons. The major changes need prior approval, whereas the minor changes require a notification.
Some of the post approval changes have to be informed to licensing authority within specific timelines. Our expertise will support you to make a good strategy to maintain the business continuity.
