• Medical Devices

The device file assembles itself as the work happens

Design control, production and post-market surveillance on one record. Built for 21 CFR Part 820 as amended by the QMSR, ISO 13485:2016 and EU MDR.

Supported frameworks, not certifications. Regulatory updates included.

One controlled record

Why now

Your quality system
is the regulation now.

Since 2 February 2026, Part 820 incorporates ISO 13485:2016 directly. The vocabulary changed, and so did what an inspector can ask to see.

  • New names for the device records

    The ISO 13485 medical device file and the design and development file replace the older FDA record terms.

  • More of the system is inspectable

    Management review, internal audit and supplier audit records are now open to inspection.

  • ISO 13485 alone is not enough

    Section 820.35 still asks for complaint data elements, servicing records and UDI per device or batch.

What is tailored

One record, from design
to post-market.

Where the Medical Devices pack changes how the core behaves.

Library

The device file builds itself

The medical device file and design & development file assemble continuously from specification, manufacturing, packaging and labelling records already in the system.

Production

UDI per device or batch

UDI recorded per device or batch, with GUDID and EUDAMED attribute changes tracked automatically on a 30-day clock.

CAPA

Complaints with their clock

Complaint intake carries the prescribed data elements and reporting clock from the moment it's logged; nonconformities need an effectiveness review before they can close.

Facility

Servicing under control

Servicing records are held to the same controls as production records, not tracked in a separate spreadsheet.

Built for medical devices

Every device lot, with its history attached.
From supplier to service.

These features switch on with the medical devices pack, on the same record as your design, production and quality work.

01 / Inventory · Device history

Trace a device lot back to its components.

Each lot links back to the supplier lots and receipts behind it, and forward to every build and shipment it reached. The tests and approvals on the lot sit alongside, so the device history is one view, not a binder.

  • 01
    Back to the supplier.

    Each device lot links to the supplier lots and receipts behind its components.

  • 02
    Forward to the customer.

    Every build and shipment the lot reached is on the same view, so the reach of a complaint is already known.

  • 03
    Evidence before release.

    Tests, labelling examination and QA approval sit on the lot, so missing evidence shows before final release.

02 / Shop floor · Qualification

IQ, OQ and PQ, with requalification on schedule.

Each production unit keeps its qualification protocols and history. Requalification rules set when it is due, and the unit cannot run production while it is requalifying.

  • 01
    Every stage on file.

    DQ, IQ, OQ and PQ keep their protocols, results and approvals on the unit’s record.

  • 02
    Due by rule.

    Requalification rules set when the next PQ is due, so it is planned, not found at an audit.

  • 03
    No production while requalifying.

    Work orders cannot start on the unit until the report is approved and QA releases it.

03 / QMS · Complaints

Every complaint starts its own clock.

Complaint intake records the data elements the regulation asks for. Evaluation, investigation and the reporting decision each have an owner and a due date, and the score at stake shows what an open complaint costs your readiness.

  • 01
    The right data at intake.

    Intake captures the device, the lot, the complainant and the event, the data elements Section 820.35 still asks for.

  • 02
    An owner for each decision.

    Evaluation, investigation and the reporting decision each get a named owner and a due date.

  • 03
    Escalated before the deadline.

    A reportable event runs on its market’s clock, such as 30 calendar days under Part 803, and escalates before it expires.

04 / Shop floor · Calibration and servicing

Calibration and servicing under the same controls.

Calibration records and schedules cover every instrument and fixture. Overdue equipment is blocked at the step, and servicing is recorded with the same controls as production.

  • 01
    Every instrument on schedule.

    Each instrument and fixture keeps its calibration records, the standard used and its next due date.

  • 02
    Overdue means blocked.

    A step that needs an overdue instrument cannot start until a passing calibration is recorded.

  • 03
    Servicing under the same controls.

    Servicing is signed and audit-trailed like production, not kept in a separate spreadsheet.

Clocks and licences

Every report has a clock.
Every clock has an owner.

The same event carries a different deadline in each market. The system starts the right timer, names an owner and escalates before it expires. The India pack holds the licensing paperwork.
