The overarching element of this process landscape is the quality manual.
An ISO 13485 certified QMS helps to not only obtain a successful product certification but guarantees an increase in transparency of the various business processes
and thereby significantly reduces error and complaint rates and related costs.
Objective and details
The objective of this workshop for start-ups is that each participating company implements an ISO 13485:2016 QMS and receive training on the procedures.
Eight workshops (2-4 hours each) are at the core of this initiative.
They are conducted by one of our experts and together with various Start-Ups. Prior to each workshop, the respective documents, SOPs and templates are provided in an electronic format.
The participants then study the material and prepare for the workshops (e.g. relevant questions for their specific needs / field of application).
The interaction with our experienced consultants (which present the documents and SOPs during the workshops) and the other participants ensures seamless transition into practice and training at the same time. During each workshop there will be enough time to discuss questions regarding the implementation (customization).
You will meet our senior consultants: Beat Steffen, Barbara Jeroncic, Stefano Adami, Andrea Biasiucci, Mattias Larsson, and Martina Coscia.
We have successfully conducted this workshop with 11 Start-Up companies in the previous editions. All parties considered it a great success.
Advantages
The advantages for each participating company are :
• reduced costs compared to a QMS set up by a consultant specifically for one company,
• companies gain deep understanding of the QMS during the workshops and implementation,
• participating employees are trained (training certificate will be provided),
• interaction with non-competing companies in the same industry, and
• companies can support each other with the implementation.
The series of workshops will be conducted starting from 4 participants (4 Start-Ups). The maximum number of Start-Ups is limited to 7.
