Overview of the webinar

FDA regulations require medical device companies to have a suitable and effective Quality Management System (QMS).And Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) is an important tool to address problems within the QMS as well as product quality.The international standard ISO 13485:2016 makes it clear that corrective and preventive actions fall under the heading of Improvement.Yet, many companies don’t have a methodical process or tools for improvement. Not only do they fail to achieve necessary improvements, they waste precious time and resources.This webinar will help you avoid those struggles and establish an efficient and effective CAPA process leading to improved quality and compliance for your company.Six sigma tools and methodology provide a rigorous approach to improving quality and compliance results.

Why should you attend?

CAPA and improvement are the foundation of an effective Quality Management System.Many companies struggle to improve quality and compliance because they lack simple tools.An ineffective CAPA System leads to disastrous consequences such as medical device reports, recalls, 483s, and warning letters.And an inefficient improvement process results in wasted time, money, and missed opportunities.In this 90 minute webinar, we’ll discuss the fundamentals of an improvement process and how that fits into CAPA.
