Description
The intent of right-sizing your Quality Management System (QMS) is to be compliant but not overly burden your organizational resources and to keep it simple and flexible to meet the product and maturity of the company. This discussion will share how to build a “right-size” QMS to meet regulatory and customer requirements, prepare for device submission, or as part of continuous improvement. This discussion will share the good, bad, and ugly of what, why, when and how to implement your QMS.
