Context of the digitalization request

Our client is part of an international group that manufactures medical devices. They approached GxpManager to create a custom application for defining, planning, and tracking equipment and manufacturing process qualification and validation activities.

Challenges

Our client has used Excel files to manage their qualification and validation activities. These manual methods lacked traceability and were not compliant with GxP regulations. Hence, our client wanted to invest in a compliant tool that would allow traceability of each action, simplified management, and immediate data analysis.

The application solution

Implementation of the custom application solution by GxpManager

Our technical-functional consultants configured the application in close collaboration with our client. Much of the project was done directly with our client, fostering exchange and responsiveness. This dynamic client/consultant relationship, coupled with no-code/low-code configuration technology, enabled the fast development of the application in just 12 days: requirement analysis, configuration, training, implementation support, and performance qualification (PQ).
