Poorly connected data is an inherent challenge of product development. Manual processes and the lack of linkage/connection between all compliance data makes product development— and critical traceability— highly error-prone, time-intensive, expensive, and complex. However, when technology and process meet to create and maintain connections between diverse data, products can get to market faster with less risk. 

Compass is a SaaS solution purpose-built to connect data across all functional areas of medical device product development and automate a complex workflow between those inter-connections to ensure compliant development. It provides an adaptable set of templates for the entire product design control process: risk, requirement, and test management, from user needs to validation. Saving time and resources, it maintains documentation and supports submissions as well as providing automatic generation of the master trace matrices for the Design History File (DHF).

Compass, powered by our Cockpit Platform, is the only solution that truly integrates risk, requirement, and test management for a fully automated design control process. It includes built-in, enforced processes for quality management and adaptable document management functionality to meet all of your reporting and regulatory submission needs.

Compass includes built-in mechanisms for allocating, linking, and tracing requirements, risks, and tests to help teams see the numerous connections from User Needs and Validation through to Design Outputs, Risk, and Verification. It automatically pulls in the data to generate complex master trace matrices, with tens of thousands of traces within a single table, that can be exported and submitted as part of the Design History File (DHF).
