Life Science Companies Soar to the Cloud to Support Quality and Compliance

Life-Science Industry Executives are driving towards a “cloud first” approach in support of quality and compliance. These are the findings of a Voice of the Customer Report, based on interviews with ten life sciences industry executives who have implemented cloud QMS solutions, conducted by Axendia.

Life science organizations are directing resources toward the development of next generation products that improve patient outcomes, rather than building and managing complex IT infrastructures. These companies are soaring to the cloud to streamline business processes while taking advantage of the availability and security associated with cloud platforms.

Cloud Native Quality Management System (QMS) solutions running on modern cloud platforms provide secure, scalable, and flexible functionality to authorized users, anytime, anywhere, from any device. Forward-thinking companies are leveraging modern cloud platforms and native cloud applications to support data accessibility and availability for a global and mobile work force.

Executives stated they are driving efficiencies throughout their organizations in a secure and cost-effective manner. The implementation of cloud QMS solutions are helping them drive improvements in product quality and cost-effectively accelerate new product introductions. Additionally, cloud QMS enabled faster time to value and streamlined validation while supporting regulatory compliance. They highlighted the cost savings achieved by the unification of processes, data, and content that were previously managed by legacy on premise solutions; efficiencies of business processes with tangible payback; and, an improved user experience and ease of use.

To support this Voice of the Customer Report, Axendia conducted a series of interviews with ten life sciences industry executives who have implemented cloud QMS solutions from ComplianceQuest, Sparta Systems or Veeva Systems. The report is based on first hand experiences from those executives and includes the business benefits achieved and the challenges life science organizations using cloud QMS solutions have overcome. We have also validated, distilled, and refined our analysis though discussions with industry leaders.

We found that innovative, forward-thinking organizations are shifting to modern, cloud native QMS solutions to improve productivity and are taking a true “risk-based approach” to validation. Furthermore, this report reveals how the use of cloud QMS supports improved quality, compliance, collaboration, and communication across the product value chain.

We also discuss end-to-end capabilities needed to manage quality and compliance requirements with QMS, as well as offer suggestions on infrastructure best suited for cloud QMS. Lastly, the report provides insight into how industry leaders are successfully utilizing cloud QMS to drive improvements in product quality and accelerate new product introductions in a timely and cost-effective manner while supporting regulatory compliance.
