Practise the judgment, not the vocabulary

Deterministic scenario exercises where your choices change the situation — and a source-linked debrief explains why each one mattered.

10 SCENARIOS PUBLISHED · NO COMPLIANCE VERDICT IS ISSUED BY ANY OF THEM

EVERY SCENARIO · 10

Trace a DeviationYou are on the floor when something departs from the approved procedure. Walk it from discovery through containment, investigation, CAPA, and management review — and see whether your record would survive an inspection.CONTAINMENT · DOCUMENTATION · ESCALATION · OWNERSHIPBuild a FacilityYou are bringing a new manufacturing facility online. Decide how to scope, verify, and evidence the qualified state — from design through commissioning and qualification to startup.SCOPE · VERIFICATION · EVIDENCE · GOVERNANCEClinical Trial Data JourneyFollow trial data from a participant’s source record through the EDC, queries, and database lock. Your choices decide whether the evidence a regulatory approval rests on is credible and defensible.INTEGRITY · TRACEABILITY · TIMELINESS · OVERSIGHTInvestigate an OOS ResultA finished-product assay comes back below specification. Walk it from the bench through the laboratory investigation, hypothesis testing, the full-scale investigation, and batch disposition — and see whether your record would survive an inspection.RIGOR · INTEGRITY · ROOTCAUSE · DISPOSITIONPrepare for a Pre-Approval InspectionYour application is filed and a pre-approval inspection is coming. Walk the site from readiness assessment through data-integrity verification, application conformance, and the inspection itself — and see whether the outcome would be a recommendation for approval.PREPARATION · EVIDENCE · CANDOR · OWNERSHIPComplaint to CAPAA clinician reports that an infusion pump alarmed and stopped mid-therapy. Take it from complaint intake through investigation, reportability, and the risk file — and see whether the post-market loop actually closes.INVESTIGATION · REPORTABILITY · RISK · SYSTEMICA Preventive Control FailsThe thermal-process record for a run sits below its minimum for eleven minutes, and the shift has already moved on. Take it from the monitoring record through disposition, cause, and plan reanalysis.CONTAINMENT · RECORDS · INVESTIGATION · SYSTEMICSignal to ActionA report of harm reaches your company by an unexpected route. Decide how it is captured, assessed, reported and escalated — and what to do when the evidence is suggestive but not conclusive.TIMELINESS · ASSESSMENT · GOVERNANCE · EVIDENCEValidate a SystemA configured LIMS is being implemented to replace paper worksheets. Decide how much validation the risk warrants, what the supplier’s assurance can substitute for, and what to do about an audit trail that does not capture what you assumed.SCOPE · VERIFICATION · DATAINTEGRITY · GOVERNANCECold Chain ExcursionA refrigerated shipment arrives with a temperature excursion on the logger. Decide what happens to the stock, who makes the call, and what the answer rests on — before a customer asks where their order is.ASSESSMENT · CONTROL · EVIDENCE · GOVERNANCE
WHAT A SCENARIO IS

A judgment exercise, not a quiz. Each one is deterministic — the same choices always produce the same situation and the same debrief — and each is scored only against the dimensions it declares for itself. No scenario issues a compliance verdict, on you or on the situation, because that is a decision your organisation makes with evidence SPEQ does not have. Every one is free and needs no account.
