Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive framework for standardizing water systems in the pharmaceutical industry, aligning with WHO guidelines. Initially aimed at rectifying water systems in Pakistan, this study expanded to develop a versatile implementation structure applicable to various guidelines. The methodology integrates a Process and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID) with an Excel-based evaluation tool, facilitating systematic assessment against WHO standards. Challenges such as limited flexibility and complexity of use are acknowledged, suggesting the need for ongoing refinement. Future research directions include automated assessment tools, integration with IoT and data analytics, enhanced customization, and integration with regulatory databases. Overall, this study emphasizes the importance of structured evaluation methodologies and innovative tools in ensuring regulatory compliance and continuous improvement of industrial systems.
