Documentation & Control
We offer a comprehensive set of product development documentation
to support our informed design process.
- Plans to guide the development.
- Product definition documents to record product requirements and specifications
- Transfer design files to enable manufacturing to build a product with predictable results (design history file, device master record and device history record)
- Documents are routed and approved over secure network, and encrypted and stored in Citrix Sharefile:
- We meet administrative/procedural requirements of Title 21 CFR Part 11
- Sharefile is identity-access-controlled (username/password/two-step verification required)
- Transfers to Sharefile cloud are over Secure Socket Layer (SSL) / Transport Layer Security (TLS)
- Sharefile storage is in SSAE-16 audited data centers
