Kicking off 2025 with more integrations and deeper data connections for Qualio customers

     

    The data shows that quality managers are stretched thin and expected to do more with less.

    Qualio’s latest customer survey of over 100 life science companies revealed that the majority of respondents were responsible for compliance with 3-5 regulatory standards, and faced between 1 and 5 external audits every year.

    Their key challenges included:

    • Regulatory compliance and certification
    • Fundraising and financing
    • Growth and scaling challenges
    • Operational efficiency and workforce constraints

     

    These challenges are multiplied across the product lifecycle, with quality assurance serving as the connective tissue that ensures compliance at all stages while working across different teams and processes with disparate tools.

    Qualio’s final product upgrade of 2024 launched a raft of new integrations and data management possibilities to our customers. We’re kicking off 2025 by building on this momentum, expanding both our Resource Library and the systems we integrate with to make our eQMS software more powerful than ever before.



    Optimize your product quality with new data insights

     

    Life science quality teams are entrusted with a critical task: securing the compliance and quality of highly regulated, often life-saving products. But juggling different systems, data streams and sources makes this work complicated, murky and time-consuming.

    We’ve enhanced our no-code data management tool, Resource Library, to put more connected data at our customers’ fingertips in a single area.

    Here’s what’s improved:

     

    Expanded traceability of all linked relationships in your eQMS

     

    Our last launch train introduced an integrated resource traceability view for event form fields.

    We’ve taken things further by visualizing the linked relationships, including smartlinks, for all your data points in Qualio, giving you a traceable and audit-ready web of connected information.

     

    • Create flexible linkages between data points at the resource level, such as linking a piece of equipment to the supplier who provided it or the department using it

     

    • Surface a centralized view of chronological quality info for resources like products, suppliers, sites, batches or equipment, including the documents and events connected to each of them. View all of a product’s quality records, for instance, or trace the full chain of activities related to one of your suppliers.

     

    • Explore connected records and information across Qualio in seconds, with new global search functionality to find the insights you need

     

    • Immediately understand the impact of quality events, such as CAPAs, across the documents and processes they touch







    New metadata options for an even deeper source of quality truth



    Quality users will now be able to define custom fields for each of their resource library categories, beyond the default ID, name and description.

    Add items like lot number, manufacturing date or expiry date, unlocking applications for production and manufacturing data.

     



    Plus, we’re rolling out a new mapping tool to let you populate system metadata directly from imports and integrations - saving you hours of manual data entry and duplication!




     

    Connect your eQMS across your company with new system integrations

     

    We announced a string of fresh third-party integrations for Qualio in our last product launch.

    Now, we’re adding some more!

     

    Build quality-centric SaMD and GxP software products with GitHub & Qualio integration

     

    We’ve connected GitHub to Qualio, allowing you to absorb releases and labels straight from your software developing tool into your eQMS.

    Data pulled from GitHub can be loaded instantly into a Qualio event, kickstarting the appropriate workflow and notifying assigned personnel.

    Your coding and development activity becomes instantly synchronized with your quality management processes, keeping your software on-track, error-free and totally compliant.

     

    Maximize customer delight and keep tabs on your market activity with Microsoft Dynamics CRM & Qualio integration



    Use Microsoft Dynamics as your CRM tool?

    We’ve integrated it with Qualio to let you trigger instant remediation workflows for customer activity, from complaints to reported adverse events.

     






    Use Qualio even more easily with our other quality-of-life tweaks

     

    We’re continually improving Qualio as well as expanding it, and constructive customer feedback helps drive our roadmap.

    That’s why we’ve tweaked and improved several other areas of the system to make your quality work even quicker, easier and more intuitive.

     

    Build your quality processes more flexibly with draft event templates

     

    Qualio customers now enjoy even more control of their event management activity.

    Create new draft versions of a template and work with your colleagues to make changes to it - without them becoming effective immediately.

    Perfect for iterating and collaborating on a new process before it goes live!



    Manage documents at speed with UX, commenting and export upgrades

     

    As well as a minor facelift to boost usability, we’ve added the ability to mention other users in comments to sharpen your collaboration activities.

    Plus: we’ve added controlled exports to your audit trails, letting you pull out key pieces of system activity to share with your auditors or customers.




    We can’t wait to roll out our updates to our customer base, and we’re only just getting started for 2025.
