Project Management of Verification & Validation outsourcing
What is Verification and Validation?
Validation is the process of ensuring you have objective evidence that user needs, and the device’s intended uses are met. This is usually done with tests, inspections, and analysis. The goal of validation is to make sure the medical device meets the user needs consistently, provides the intended medical benefit, and remains the case when actually used in the real world.
Verification is ensuring you have objective evidence that the medical device’s specified requirements are met. This is usually done with tests, inspections, and analysis as well.
What do you need to be compliant?
Manufacturers need effective, relevant and well documented validation and verification activities that are compliant with EU regulations. Its very important to consider validation and verification early in the design phase when developing the device requirement specifications. This will streamline the overall manufacturing and approval processes.
The standards for validation and verification are set by regional regulatory bodies as well as international standards which often overlap when it comes to device requirements.
Planning for verification and validation is essential. We can provide project management for the definition of the tests to be performed and plans for that testing need to take place early in the development process. We understand that the V&V process connects the outcomes to the original specifications, but those outcomes also form the basis for a successful submission.
