Reduce quality delays by 60-80%. Accelerate production.
Stop treating quality as overhead. Ideagen's FastStart Pack for Manufacturing transforms quality management into a production enabler, delivering ISO 9001-ready workflows that reduce quality holds by 70% while maintaining rigorous compliance. All with pricing below £20,000 per year.
Quality processes should not slow production
How much production time are you losing because quality processes create bottlenecks instead of enabling smooth operations? What if quality management could actually accelerate production?
Challenge 1: Production delays from quality holds
Your production line waits while paperwork gets processed. Automated quality workflows and real-time monitoring reduce hold times by 70%.
Challenge 2: Manual documentation consumes staff time
Your production team spends hours on quality paperwork instead of value-added manufacturing activities.
Challenge 3: Supplier quality issues disrupt production
Supplier defects aren't caught until they impact your line. By then, production is delayed and costs escalate.
Challenge 4: Quality requirements create audit stress
Demonstrating quality improvement to customers requires data you don't have time to compile.
Turn quality into your competitive advantage
Solution 1
Quality that speeds up production
Automated workflows eliminate manual approvals that slow production. Real-time monitoring catches issues early. Quality becomes a competitive advantage, not overhead. Most operations see efficiency improvements within the first week.
Solution 2

FAQs
Answer: Traditional implementations start from scratch with lengthy discovery, requirements gathering, custom configuration, and extensive testing - consuming 6-12 months. FastStart Packs start with pre-configured, pre-validated workflows proven across hundreds of implementations. You're deploying best practices, not reinventing them. While competitors are still in discovery workshops, you're operational.
Answer: While every company thinks their requirements are unique, 80% of quality management follows standard patterns dictated by regulations like ISO 9001, FDA 21 CFR Part 820, or Joint Commission standards. FastStart Packs handle the regulatory structure that's common across your industry - document control, CAPA, audit management, training. You can adapt specific workflows for true differentiators while building on a proven compliance foundation that auditors recognize and trust.
Answer: Absolutely. FastStart Packs are built on the same enterprise-grade Ideagen platform used by Fortune 500 companies with 50,000+ employees. You start with right-sized functionality for 10-250 employees and scale seamlessly as you grow—no migration required, no platform changes. We scale when you do.
Answer: Everything: industry-specific configuration for your chosen pack (ISO 9001, Life Sciences, Healthcare, Manufacturing, or Medical Devices), all core QMS modules (document control, CAPA, audit management, training, supplier management, change control), pre-validated workflows and compliance templates, 2-day expert-led training covering administration and operations, and ongoing platform access. 5 admin licenses and 10 user licenses. Additional licenses and configurations are avaialble on request.
Answer: We offer five specialized packs: ISO 9001 (covering 9001, 14001, 45001 for general manufacturing), Life Sciences (FDA 21 CFR Part 820, ISO 13485, EMA, ISO 15189, 17025), Healthcare (Joint Commission, CMS requirements), Manufacturing (production-focused ISO compliance), and Medical Devices (FDA, ISO 13485, EU MDR). Each pack includes industry-specific workflows, compliance templates, and audit checklists.
Answer: Most organizations are operational within 30 days. Once you share your user and departmental information, we configure the system and deliver comprehensive 2-day training covering system administration, management, and day-to-day operations. The pre-configured nature of FastStart Packs eliminates traditional implementation delays - no lengthy discovery, no extensive customization, no months of testing.
Answer: You receive ongoing platform access, regular feature updates, and technical support as part of your annual subscription. The system is yours to manage and customize as your needs evolve. Additional training, advanced configurations, and integration services are available as needed, but the core system is ready to use from day one.
