New business opportunities, faster product launches and better patient services are all part of the new digital reality. To take full advantage of this, pharma and medical device companies must also become software companies. In such a highly regulated industry this pivotal shift in direction can leave a company exposed, caught in between the new and old. At Data Ductus we help you bridge this gap.
A standard-based approach to software engineering
Meeting regulatory compliance can be one of the most difficult areas of an IT software project in the pharmaceutical and medical device industry, especially if you don’t have the right competencies on your team.
Our core team of software engineers not only excel at development but are also well acquainted with the regulatory landscape and how it impacts software engineering practices.
When you choose to work with Data Ductus, you get high quality, standard-conformant code, in accordance with:
Case studies and articles
Faster time-to-market with regulatory compliant software
Using standards-based code at an early stage of development means projects aren’t delayed by costly and lengthy verification and validation processes. This significantly speeds up regulatory approval and time to market.
We develop life science software in accordance with EU, FDA, USDA and MHRA regulations including MDD 93/42/EEC (now replaced by 2017/745) and FDA Title 21 CFR Part 11.
