Sierra QMS

One of the main highlights of this webinar was how this trend towards digitization can lead to increased healthcare equity due to the fact that health technology can be distributed on a much broader scale than non-technological solutions. However, the main challenge to this point is that many lower-income areas might not have the access to these technologies due to their high price points. 

Healthcare equity is an issue we take very seriously here at Sierra Labs; we believe everyone should have access to new healthcare technology, no matter what socioeconomic status one is from. However, one of the only ways this is possible is to decrease manufacturing and production costs for Healthcare and Life Science companies on the backend so that they can lower their end product costs for these lower-income areas.

Sierra QMS is a Healthcare and Life Science Quality Management System that automates the regulatory compliance processes, thus lowering the overall cost of compliance and reducing the amount of manual overhead, allowing these companies to bring down the price point of their health technologies and therefore distribute their product into more diverse populations. 

Sierra QMS will:

• Automate your validation testing
• Generate audit reports with the click of a button
• Serve as a single repository for all of your documentation across different departments

and it contains:

• Document Management System
• Design History File Management
• Traceability Matrix
• Workflow Automation
• Risk, Deviation, CAPA Management
• Electronic Signature (21 CFR Part 11 Compliant)
• Supplier Management

A QMS is absolutely essential to speeding up medical technology production, gaining regulatory approvals and certifications, and getting to market cheaper and faster.
