Vetter Launches QA Program

Vetter launched a new project management quality assurance program aimed at controlling the quality and cost of pre-filled injectable product manufacturing processes. The QA program for project managers, according to the company, will ultimately lead to certification by the International Project Management Association (IPMA).

“Before commercial manufacturing ever begins, we spend years working together with the customer on packaging and production processes,” said Jochen Alberstetter, vice president of project management for Vetter. “By undergoing an IPMA audit, we can now help our clients benefit from the highest-quality project management available.”

IPMA is a project management organization representing 45 national project management associations and has more than 55,000 international members. The IPMA has a process to test project managers and assess them on criteria, such as the ability to plan, control, communicate and solve problems. Each participant in the certification program must have at least three years of experience in project management, as well as two years of practical work leading a project.
