Because of this positive and negative feedback, changecontrol must be an integral part of any Quality ManagementSystem. This session is scenario-driven with real life examples,and attendee interaction is the basis for learning what is beingdone when these types of resulting issues are realized.We will address these specific points:• y Installing and implementing a Quality Review Boardas a conduit for further actions• y Using and developing metrics and measurement forManagement Review Sessions• y Controlling change to minimize uncertainties in theQuality Management System• y Listening to customer feedback and understandingwhy complaints are “a gift”• y Implementing the process architecture and linkedrelationships for measuring, analyzing andimproving GMP and ISO-related systems.Attendees will receive these tools to put to immediate use:• y How to develop a Quality Review Board and thelogistics for success• y How to use a risk management file for compliancepurposes• y The corrective and preventive action format forprocess-oriented decisions• y An understanding of process mapping as an asset toyour Quality Management System• y Some approaches to handling this type of sensitiveinformation during FDA inspections and ISO audits• y Management review as a toolBIO: John Gagliardi has had success over the past 40 years inthe medical device and pharmaceutical industries because ofhis practical approach to process-orientation and business.

Goldense, NPDP, CMfgE,CPIM, CCPPresident, Goldense Group, Inc.Wednesday, June 169:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.Wall Street still values organic innovation over all other forms ofproduct development innovation. Companies with “inventionengines” have highly favorable market capitalizations. This wasthe focus of my OMTEC 2009 session. The world is always movingforward. And, time builds experience. Open Innovation (OI), tosome level for every company, is now inevitable. As a “bodyof knowledge,” OI is maturing. Certain corporate behaviorsnow have patterns, with somewhat consistent approaches, andsome risks are known. Wall Street doesn’t yet know how tovalue everything that is OI, but that will come.We will take a snapshot of the “State of Open Innovation” incorporations. OI is not the major product development trendto pay attention to, however. It is part of a triad that includescontracted-out innovation and product or technology sale orlicensing. These three industry activities all place the “corporatejewels of innovation,” the Intellectual Property (IP), outsideof the owning corporation to some level. Companies arestruggling to protect themselves at these unprecedented levels.As this IP becomes more commoditized, Wall Street will figureout how to value it all. The arms-length sale and exchange ofIP is already in nascent stages in public marketplaces. The firstsix great generations of innovation will be explained to precedea focus on the seventh and next great generation of corporateinnovation, “IP-Based.” This is a quantitative presentation.Many facts, figures and studies will be cited.2010Page 15
