Introduction
Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust, an Ideagen customer since 2004, sought to validate their QMS software to comply with ISO 15189 requirements. This validation was crucial for maintaining high standards in their Pathology department.
The challenge
- Transitioning from CPA to ISO 15189
- Need for comprehensive documented evidence for QMS validation
- Potentially lengthy and complex validation process
Finding the right solution
The customer utilized Ideagen’s validation pack for:
- Step-by-step guidance through the validation process
- Comprehensive coverage of all QMS modules
- Simplification and acceleration of the validation process
Implementation and impact
With Ideagen’s validation pack, the customer:
- Reduced validation time by 50%
- Achieved ISO 15189 certification quickly
- Saved on staffing costs associated with validation
- Ensured thorough and hassle-free compliance with standards
The main benefit from the pack was the huge savings in time which would have been spent validating the system ourselves. We also saved on associated staffing costs that would have been incurred, which is often forgotten about.
