Healthcare Software Quality Assurance
Our Software Quality Assurance (SQA) professionals work with you to ensure medical devices are safe, effective, and appropriate for their intended use.
We collaborate with engineers, quality managers, regulatory personnel, manufacturing personnel, clinical staff, research staff, and development staff, to ensure software surpasses industry standards.
"Before we start talking about our support, can we have a minute please!"
Breaking a little bit of the 4th wall here for our audience, we need to align in terminology and what we mean. This is super important!
We define Computer Software Validation (CSV) as the application and validation of computer-based software.
Software Quality Assurance on the other hand is specifically focused on internal quality control procedures and deliverables that developers must put into place before release of software or firmware.
The term SaMD refers to something much more specific - when a piece of software functions as an actual medical device.
How you approach development, validation and risk controls for Software/firmware, applications and SaMD are different, we can go into this in more detail when we speak. But it is important that we make this distinction.

Medical Device Validation to IEC 62304
Are you developing a medical device that uses software, or developing SaMD (Software as a Medical Device?
If you are, then let us support you in ensuring the development of a safe and effective device, that meets regulatory requirements.
