Centralize production data to improve the quality and compliance of medical devices

Medical device manufacturers rely on well-documented, well-controlled procedures to stay in compliance and to ensure product quality and safety. However, for most companies, the processes for manufacturing engineering and planning, design transfer and production continue to be document centric. This approach makes driving a culture of continuous improvement difficult due to inaccuracies and the lack of key performance indicators and traceable data. Siemens solutions for operational quality enable medical device manufacturers to automate data collection and management.

Control data and documents by centralizing production information

This data-centric approach is crucial for ensuring traceability and compliance with regulations. Implementing error-proof processes, paperless manufacturing and electronic device history records (eDHR) leads to improved quality operations. Siemens Operational Excellence tools enables high-quality, compliant product manufacturing through an integrated digital system. These tools support review and enforcement, advanced planning and scheduling, production and process control, IoT reporting and application development.

Gain visibility to improve your medical device quality management system

By automating data collection and management, Siemens Operational Excellence tools help create a transparent infrastructure that enhances product quality by using live dashboards for data analysis. Centralized data facilitates process enforcement and comprehensive production information records, enabling real-time manufacturing data standardization and contextualization. Low-code application development tools further accelerate application creation, enhancing quality processes and ensuring compliance traceability.
