Capterra-5-Star-Review

"All of our records are now in one location"

QT9 has streamlined our internal auditing process, preparation for regulatory audits, document control and approval, and organizational training. We have been able to reduce our active documents by 30% as unnecessary/redundant documents and procedures have been made more visible through the document review process.

"Looking forward to using more modules"

The document control feature has improved our ability to find documents and some records when requested for audit or project purposes. Training is much easier to manage. I like being able to link equipment and gages to system documentation in the Document list. The customer service has always been helpful and responds quickly.

"Excellent support, traceability and ease of use."

We are a medical device company and myself, the FDA & ISO auditors liked the traceability, control of documents and everything was there at our fingertips from Management review to Documents to CAR's. QT9 is always responsive to our questions and resolving issues. For the cost, the flexibility, electronic signature and traceability is worth trying out the system.

FAQs: eDMR and eDHR Software

What is a device master record (DMR)?

A device master record (DMR) is a file that includes all information and specifications needed to produce a particular medical device, including processes and materials used, drawings, labeling and packaging, and installation, maintenance and servicing procedures.

 

A DMR is required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under 21 CFR Part 820.

What is a device history record (DHR)?

A device history record is a lot-specific version of the device's DMR. An eDHR is a digital version of the traditional DHR.

 

Device history records are part of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and are required by international and national regulatory bodies, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), to show that all requirements of the DMR have been fulfilled. Global regulators require manufacturers to maintain this information for each stage in the medical device’s life cycle.

What is a Bill of Materials (BOM)?

A Bill of Materials (BOM) is a comprehensive list of all materials and components needed to manufacture or repair a device, as well as directions for how to use them. 

 

A single-level BOM is generally a simple list of assemblies and quantities needed.

 

A multi-level BOM is a hierarchical description of how each part is assembled. It lists every component of each part, including details such as quantity, part number and cost.
