Part 820--Quality System Regulation

This section provides the text of Title 21, Volume 8, Part 820 of the Code of Federal Regulations (as revised April 1, 2003). Regulation 21CFR820 represents the US Food and Drug Administration's requirements for good configuration management practices. Our intent is simply to provide insight into accepted configuration management principles in a regulatory environment. While this text is believed to be an accurate transcription of the regulation, if your company is subject to FDA regulation you should obtain the current regulation directly from the Food and Drug Administration.
