Procurement of Medicines — UNDP Quality Assurance Policy

The UNDP Quality Assurance Policy for health products procured by the organisation is developed in line with WHO norms and standards for health products. The objective of UNDP QA Policy is to ensure sourcing of high-quality medicines and medical products from a reliable source, efficient utilization of public funds at the best interest of the patients, to obtain the best health care outcomes. The ITP summarizes UNDP’ technical and regulatory requirements for the Finished Pharmaceutical Product (FPP) used to prevent HIV infection.

The products are procured according to the UNDP QA Policy for Health Products, which is aligned with QA policies from other UN organizations and The Global Fund. UNDP is taking a careful approach on selecting manufacturers through the ITP listed evaluation stages. This approach is expected to address the general requirements for completeness of application submission forms; the products prequalification status (WHO, SRA or ERP); experience in supplying pharmaceuticals at international level; as well as the documented policies, standards and procedures required to ensure consistency.
