FDA GMP Audit Checklist for Cosmetic OEM: A Complete Guide

FDA cosmetic GMP vetting means verifying real controls, not just certificates: documented workflows, traceability, raw material approval, batch records, micro-risk discipline, packaging compatibility, and change control. A GMP-ready OEM/CM can show what they do when something goes wrong—deviations, investigations, CAPA, and release criteria—so your product stays consistent from sample to scale. Use a question-led audit approach: what to ask, what to see on-site, and which documents prove the system works.
