Regulatory Process Compliance
Is your Organization Compliant? Learn about the different regulatory compliances and how Interfacing can help you. Compliance Management ServicesProcess Compliance – whether through government legislation, industry standards & regulations or a company’s own policies – is a prevalent business concern for all organizations. The cost of non-compliance can be both catastrophic and long-standing.
Ignoring compliance can sometimes put your organization at great risk for not adhering to the law. The risk for reputation damages and the financial implications are important. Complying with regulation, legislation and policies can be a difficult task and managers need the right tools to ensure the organization is compliant.
A Solution Designed for the needs of Modern Industry
Companies implementing compliance have partnered with Interfacing to deploy workflow solutions involving management and automation of point-to-point business processes. This includes health sciences (including patient-related), manufacturing, administrative, financial and industry processes for example.
Interfacing’s process optimization & automation, SOP documentation digitalization and proactive regulatory vigilance solution, Enterprise Process Center© Suite has brought about significant time savings with accelerated approval & validation, improved visibility and operational improvements for customers including the following:

Understanding compliance: ISO 9001, ISO 13485, FDA QSR and GxP
We understand that the requirements placed on medical device companies in terms of compliance are very high and that ISO 9000, ISO 13845, FDA QSR and GxP is an essential part of that program. By using our solutions, your company gains the accountability and consistency that will give you a cutting edge over your competition. Our tools ensure full visibility from end-to-end, all the way from the creation and amendment of a regulation to the approval and revision of the content through to the update and retraining of employees for standard operating procedures (SOPs). We see the full lifecycle management as moving parts of a complete ecosystem and that’s why are unique approach that combines regulatory requirements, documents, processes, work instructions, and governance.
ISO 9001
International standard that specifies requirements for a QMS. It is the most popular standard in the ISO 9000 series and the only standard in the series to which organizations can certify.
First published in 1987 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The current version of ISO 9001 was released in September 2015.
ISO 13485
In short, ISO 13485 is an internationally recognized standard that the following countries have adopted: Europe, Canada, Australia and other markets. Excluding Canada, the application of ISO 13485 is not a requirement but is the de facto standard in use today as a measurement of full QMS compliance set forth on medical device regulations.
US FDA QSR
The US FDA QSR (also known as 21 CFR Part 820) was introduced prior to ISO 13485. All medical device companies in the US are required to meet this standard for national distribution but must comply with both regulations in order to distribute devices internationally. US FDA QSR must also be met by international companies wanting to do business with US customers.
Nuanced QMS
Other countries will have their own criteria to meet nuanced QMS requirements. For example while both Brazil and Japan have their own requirements, they are both based on existing US FDA QSR and ISO 13485 standards. On a positive note, these standards achieve harmonized quality management requirements to meet US, Canadian, European and all other QMS standards in effect.
