ISO 22716 GMP-MS Document Pack | Cosmetics GMP Templates (Boilerplate)

Stop building your GMP-MS from a blank page

Setting up a Good Manufacturing Practice Management System from scratch is slow, easy to get wrong, and easy to under-document. This pack gives you a complete, structured starting point, built directly from the requirements of ISO 22716:2007, so you’re editing and approving rather than drafting from zero.

This is the Boilerplate pack: a generic, fully comprehensive version of the full document suite, ideal if you’re not yet ready to commit to a specific product type or manufacturing model, or if you simply want the broadest possible foundation to adapt yourself.

What’s inside

124 documents, covering all 15 substantive clauses of ISO 22716:2007:

• Personnel — policy, organisation & responsibilities, hygiene, training, visitor management
• Premises & Equipment — cleaning, maintenance, pest control, calibration, equipment qualification
• Raw Materials & Packaging Materials — purchasing, goods-in, supplier approval, sampling, storage
• Production — line clearance, in-process control, manufacturing/blending/compounding, filling/labelling/packing
• Finished Products — release, despatch, returns
• Quality Control Laboratory — testing, retained samples
• Out of Specification — non-conforming result management
• Waste management
• Subcontracting — including a ready-to-sign Subcontracting/Toll Manufacturing Agreement
• Deviations management
• Complaints & Recalls — including mock recall exercises
• Change Control
• Internal Audits — including a 213-question audit checklist covering the entire standard, clause by clause
• Documentation & Management Review

Plus a master GMP-MS Manual, a Definitions & Abbreviations glossary, and a Roles & Responsibilities mapping document so every Procedure consistently references the same role names — no more hunting through dozens of files to update a job title.

Also included: GMP Awareness Training presentations

Two ready-to-use PowerPoint training presentations are included for you to use directly with your team:

GMP Awareness — Overview (12 slides) A concise introduction to GMP covering what it is, why it matters, the key ISO 22716 clause areas at a high level, and what each person’s responsibilities are. Ideal for initial induction training or a team briefer.

GMP Awareness — Full Course (31 slides) A complete clause-by-clause walkthrough of ISO 22716:2007, covering every clause area in detail, personnel hygiene and training, premises and equipment controls, material receipt and traceability, production records, QC release, non-conformances, deviations, complaints, recalls, change control, audits, and document control. Suitable for role-specific training or as a comprehensive annual refresher. Includes a running footer and Cornerstone branding, ready to present as supplied.

Both presentations are editable PowerPoint (.pptx) files, add your logo, adjust slide timing, or expand individual sections to suit your team’s needs.

Built properly, not generated generically

• Genuine document hierarchy — Policy → Procedure → Work Instruction → Form/Register, used consistently throughout
• Placeholder-driven customisation — every company-specific detail ({{company_name}}, role titles, dates, etc.) is clearly marked, so you know exactly what to edit
• Built-in conditional guidance — key documents include clearly marked sections for different manufacturing scenarios, so you can tailor the content to how you actually operate
• Consistent professional branding template — clean, modern document design (not the dated, dense “corporate ISO” look), with a logo placeholder so the pack feels like your own GMP-MS from day one
• Editable Word & Excel — .docx for Policies/Procedures/Work Instructions/Forms, .xlsx for Registers and the Internal Audit Checklist, so your records work the way real registers should: searchable, sortable, easy to maintain
• A real working audit tool — the Internal Audit Checklist isn’t a token sample. It’s 213 individual audit questions covering the full standard clause by clause, with columns for Conformance, Minor/Major Non-Conformance, Opportunities for Improvement, evidence, and sign-off

Who this is for

• Cosmetics manufacturers building or upgrading their GMP-MS for the first time
• Toll/contract manufacturers needing a documented system to support customer and certification audits
• Businesses preparing for ISO 22716 certification or a customer GMP audit
• Anyone who wants a complete, professional foundation rather than a handful of disconnected templates

Important — please read before purchasing

This pack is supplied as a set of customisable templates, not a finished, audit-ready system. Every document must be reviewed, adapted to reflect your organisation’s actual practices, and formally approved by your own competent and responsible person(s) before use. This pack does not constitute legal, regulatory, or certification advice, and using it does not by itself guarantee compliance with ISO 22716:2007, Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009, or any certification body’s requirements.

This pack covers Good Manufacturing Practice documentation only. It does not include the Product Information File (PIF) or Responsible Person (RP) obligations under Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009, these remain the responsibility of the producer and/or Responsible Person.
