EQMS

The Enterprise Quality Management System (EQMS) by Cloudtheapp is a comprehensive, cloud-based quality and compliance platform built by a team of experts with over three decades of industry experience. Designed for organisations in life sciences, biotechnology, medical device, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing sectors, the EQMS addresses the shortcomings of competing systems by unifying quality processes, external collaboration, and compliance management within a single integrated environment. It supports compliance with major standards and regulations including ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 22001, FDA 21 CFR Part 820 (QMSR), and cGMP.

A defining capability of Cloudtheapp EQMS is its no-code application builder, which allows organisations to extend and automate all of their quality processes without writing a single line of code. Collaboration with suppliers, auditors, consumers, and other external parties is built in natively, eliminating the need for disintegrated third-party systems or manual email exchanges. The platform also supports multi-environment staging — allowing teams to create Development, QA, and Production environments (or more) and promote configurations across all stages in under five seconds with a single click, a capability Cloudtheapp describes as unique in the market.

Core EQMS Application Modules

• Advanced Inspections: A powerful tool to streamline and enhance quality control inspection processes across the organisation.
• Adverse Events: Designed to streamline adverse event management where compliance meets operational efficiency.
• Audits: Supports internal audits for continuous QMS improvement as well as supplier audits, a key process across all quality standards.
• Batch Records: Manages batch production records for products made as specified groups or amounts within defined timeframes.
• Bill of Materials: A dedicated module for managing and optimising Bills of Materials.
• Calibration and Maintenance: Ensures the quality and consistency of products by managing calibration and maintenance of equipment as essential QMS components.
• Change Management: Addresses changes to the QMS and its processes, a key focus area across all quality management standards.
• Complaints: Tracks and manages any report of dissatisfaction — written, oral, or electronic — related to the quality, safety, or effectiveness of manufactured products.
• Compliance Requirements: Helps organisations conform to specifications, policies, standards, and laws relevant to their operations.
• Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA): A critical module for managing corrective and preventive actions within the EQMS.
• Customers and Products: Tracks customer organisations and the products and services provided to them.
• Defects: Assists organisations, particularly in electronics manufacturing, in efficiently recording and managing defects.
• Design Controls: Ensures compliance with regulatory requirements and standards including ISO 13485 and FDA regulations governing product design.
• Deviations: Manages differences between observed and expected values for a process or product as part of quality management.
• Device Master Records: Maintains compliant and up-to-date Device Master Records (DMR) for medical device manufacturing.
• Documents: A centralised module to host all documents through their different lifecycle phases with full revision control.
• Equipment: Provides meticulous oversight of manufacturing equipment within the quality management landscape.
• Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA): Empowers organisations with a systematic approach to risk identification and analysis across various industries.
• Inspections: Supports examination of product, material, or process characteristics as an essential part of quality control in manufacturing.
• Lab Testing: Supports quality control laboratory testing for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food production, and other industries.
• Learning: Enables upload of course templates and delivery of training to employees as an essential component of modern business operations.
• Management Review: Facilitates periodic review of the QMS by top management to ensure its suitability, adequacy, and effectiveness.
• Nonconforming Material: Manages nonconforming materials within quality, safety, and compliance management systems where precision is paramount.
• Operational Checklists: Ensures flawless execution and continuous compliance across operations, from production floors to quality labs.
• Out of Specification (OOS): Handles cases where test results for product-released batches or materials fall outside defined specifications.
• Post Market Surveys: An indispensable tool for medical device quality assurance, designed to meet post-market surveillance requirements.
• Processes: Allows organisations to define and manage the set of processes that determine how they achieve their goals and end results.
• Quality Issues: Tracks all quality issues and events regardless of source, including internal, customer, and supplier issues.
• Risk Assessments: Supports risk-based thinking to ensure proactive rather than reactive decision-making across the business.
• Suppliers and Materials: Manages supplier quality as an essential part of the overall QMS, covering supplier entities and the materials they provide.
• Tasks: A centralised task module that integrates automatically with any other module in the system to enable task launching and tracking.
