The Fastest Way to get Your CPAKB Certification

Do you know what CPAKB is? Let's dig into what CPAKB is.
CPAKB stands for Certified Good Manufacture Practice of Medical Devices and In-Vitro Diagnostics. It is a guideline used in the process of manufacturing medical devices and quality control, aimed at ensuring that the produced healthcare products meet the specified requirements for their intended use.
The certification of CPAKB, known as Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices, is an implementation of the Indonesian Health Law No. 36/2009, articles 96 and 107, regarding pharmaceutical preparations and medical devices. It is also in accordance with the Minister of Health Regulation No. 20/2017 on Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices and Minister of Health Regulation No. 14/2021 on the Health Sector OSS (Online Single Submission), stating that the facilities for producing medical devices must have the necessary buildings and equipment according to the product requirements. The office and/or factory address should not be virtual, and they must comply with the standards outlined in the Minister's regulation regarding CPAKB.
The purpose of CPAKB is to ensure that the manufactured healthcare products, including medical devices and in-vitro diagnostic devices, meet the requirements, maintain their quality and safety, and fulfill their intended purposes. Manufacturing companies responsible for producing medical devices and in-vitro diagnostic devices are accountable for the quality, safety, and efficacy of their products. They must ensure that their products are made and produced in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practice, with no compromise in quality and performance during storage, use, and transportation processes.
The certification of CPAKB is given to manufacturing companies of medical devices and in-vitro diagnostics that have met the standard requirements in production, handling, and storage processes. This certification is issued by the Indonesian Ministry of Health. Every healthcare manufacturing business is obligated to comply with and adhere to the Minister of Health Regulation No. 20/2017 on Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices. The manufacturing companies must possess a Manufacturing License for Medical Devices and In-Vitro Diagnostics (KLBI) with a designated number that corresponds to the Low, Medium, or High-Risk category. During the CPAKB certification process, the manufacturing companies are audited and evaluated by an auditing team, covering various aspects including:
Quality Management System - ISO 13485:2016
Management Responsibility
Human Resource Management
Product RealizationMeasurement, Analysis, and Improvement
The auditing team evaluates the quality management system of the manufacturing company, including its buildings and facilities, hygiene and pest control, raw material warehouse (receiving, storage, and shipping areas), production areas/lines, residue areas, quality control areas, packaging areas, and finished goods. Upon successfully passing the evaluation process, the manufacturing company of medical devices and in-vitro diagnostics will be granted the CPAKB certificate by the Ministry of Health through the Directorate General of Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices - Jo.
Directorate of Medical Device Supervision, indicating that the manufacturing company has met the standards set by the Ministry of Health. This certification instills confidence in consumers that the healthcare products produced by the company have undergone appropriate and safe processes.
