The vision is to transform the MedTech Quality Management System through the power of AI and machine learning. As the project embarks on a mission to digitize the QMS to not simplify and optimize the approach to Quality & Compliance, Supply Chain and R&D. The primary objective is to eliminate the complexities and inefficiencies of data searches and manual transactions, empowering our team to focus on what truly matters – ensuring the highest standards of quality.​
Augmented decision-making, powered by data-driven insights, will be the cornerstone of our digitized QMS, allowing us to combine the best of both worlds.​

CIO100 award winning project

Pain Points​
  • Complex workflows​

  • Unnecessary rework loops​

  • Manual inefficiencies​

  • Unoptimized record-keeping​

Workstream 1 (insights):
From:
Browsing through several systems and getting independent data to compare.
To:
AI infused browsing checking multiple systems in parallel
From:
Manual pattern review
To:
AI pre-review before final approval steps (clerical + process mandates)​
From:
user generated action plans
To:
Context aware smart recommendations with timelines and dissemination recommendations, plus follow up notification triggers.

Challenge:​

  • 30+ Quality System technology applications​

  • Varying levels of integration & data availability​

  • Fragmented / duplicative data​

  • Significant resource impact across all functions (including R&D and Supply Chain)​

  • Increasing reliance on tribal knowledge​

  • Diverting their time away from higher-value activities​

  • Increasing the “cost of quality” activities​

Solution:​

  • Search through QMS applications across 500 systems to return real-time data​

  • Automate initial incident assessment and recommendations​

  • Auto-generate descriptions, narratives, reporting, and communications​

  • Automate writing and standardize formats from Quality Innovation to the internal quality system to update records

Benefits:

Current cost state 6.2 M to 3.1M in one year for 2.7k records which is 70% cost reduction in trainings alone, 72% IMPROVED speed and efficiencies in workflow which gives 75% of time to focus on the customers.  
99K+ Hours to 41k hours per year in CAPA, Audits, Escalations and ComplaintsImproved User experience drived 14k unqiue users every week after the launch of the product.UX metrics: 68% in CSAT; 74% IN UX LITE; 72% in ease of use. 

Intangible benefits:

  • Reduce rework and near misses​

  • Improve Time to Market​

  • Improve long-term GP​

  • Expand capacity to manage volume​

  • Improve ability to react to change​​

  • Reduce Cost to Serve​

  • Enhance Controls and Compliance​

  • Earlier quality triggers​
