Requirements Management Software for Medical Devices
Our medical requirements management tool is ideal for medical device manufacturers and provides a variety of essential quality-related features, including:
- Central requirements management repository
- Electronic signature (21 CFR Part 11 compliant)
- Generate specs to MSWord/Excel - ready for submission
- Requirements traceability to risks, ensuring compliance with ISO 14971
- Support for multiple types of requirements
- Requirements validation & verification using Orcanos test management tool
- Full audit trail and history log
- Baseline management for design control
The product lifecycle is filled with challenges and potential pain points that can add time and money to the process. More often than not, there will be ambiguities that arise throughout the development stages – assumptions, grey areas, wishful thinking, for example – that need to be identified as early as possible.
Orcanos’ Requirements Management Tool has been designed to simplify requirements tracking. Flexible and powerful enough for both enterprise-size organizations and SMBs, the Design Input (DI) and Design Output (DO) tool has the following features:
- Single repository for all types of requirements management (DI/DO)
- Simple Import/Export capabilities from Microsoft Word/Excel/CSV
- End user or stakeholder collaboration
- Impact analysis
- Real-time dashboards, alerts and notifications
End-to-End Traceability
Orcanos requirements traceability tool helps companies track coverage and traceability between any ALM artifact, including but not limited to system requirements, hardware and software requirements, test cases (see: test management) and risk.
In fact, by using the Orcanos traceability matrix you can integrate R&D with quality management modules, such as FMEA for risk management, CAPA and customer complaints, ensuring medical device regulations are kept.
Risk Automation
Automate the entire risk management system, such as Risk Level calculation method, automatic setup of probability based on the Hazardous situation, and more.
Tailor Made Design Control
Use orcanos flexibility to design the system to support your processes by customizing work items, meta-data, traceability, access control, and more
Track Missing Traceability
Use Orcanos powerful filters mechanism to track missing traceability for key processes, such as risk without mitigations, requirements without test cases, etc.
Online Document Review For Better Collaboration
Orcanos Online Document enables document collaboration. Multiple users can access the same document together while preserving document integrity and data security
MSWord Document Generator
Orcanos DocGen is used to generate documents from Orcanos electronic records repository. Supporting embedded reports, and customized templates.
Baseline Management
There is a major challenge of tracking baselines, versions, and changes between versions. Orcanos completely automates the version management and shows in realtime what has changed in each version.
Snapshots (Tags)
Similar to source control, Orcanos allows you to create snapshots of your data at a specific point in time, and later on, compare 2 snapshots to identify changes in graphical view
Impact Analysis
Orcanos impact analysis marks suspicious items when their source has changed, and notify stakeholders about the suspicious changes
Freeze Content
Use the Freeze content option In order to avoid unauthorized changes to your design artifacts
