Our GDP Services

 

External and Internal GDP Audits

A robust GDP audit helps protect your WDA licence, business operations and reputation. At GDP Pharma Consulting, we deliver thorough internal, external, and third-party audits aligned with MHRA and GDP standards. Each audit concludes with a summary report outlining non-compliances, improvement opportunities, and recommendations. Services include end-to-end GDP audits, targeted departmental reviews, third-party contractor audits and full mock MHRA inspections. Our audits go beyond checklists—ensuring your systems, documentation, and team are inspection-ready while supporting continuous improvement and long-term compliance.

Training and coaching

Expert-led training is one of the most impactful ways to embed GDP compliance across your business.

We offer a wide range of Good Distribution Practice training formats and courses to suit your business and staff needs.

Quality System Design

At GDP Pharma Consulting, we help you design, implement, and/or maintain a compliant Quality Management System (QMS) that works in practice—not just on paper. Our expert team builds QMS frameworks fully aligned with GDP Regulations, tailored to your operations. Whether starting from scratch or strengthening your current system, we ensure your QMS supports compliance, accountability, and long-term operational resilience.

 
 
 

WDA Application and Wholesale Model Set-up

Setting up a pharmaceutical wholesale business involves complex MHRA and GDP requirements—but we help you get it right from day one. Whether launching or expanding, GDP Pharma Consulting supports every stage of your Wholesale Dealer’s Authorisation (WDA) application. Our services include business model evaluation, GDP-compliant infrastructure planning, tailored QMS documentation, RP identification and support, and full inspection readiness. With our expert guidance, you avoid costly delays and ensure your operations are fully aligned with MHRA expectations.

Responsible Person (RP) and Responsible Person for Import (RPi) Provision

Every WDA holder must appoint a Responsible Person (RP) to ensure GDP compliance—but finding the right expertise can be challenging. At GDP Pharma Consulting, we offer flexible, expert-led RP services ideal for companies and licence holders needing interim cover or long term support. We also provide RPi services for companies importing medicines from the Europe. Our RP/RPi services include full oversight, involvement and support in GDP related aspects of the business.
