With all of the documents and processes needed to achieve and maintain various laboratory accreditations (including ISO 17025), managing them in a paper-based environment can be difficult. Implementing a comprehensive compliance software package will provide a laboratory with the tools it needs to improve management of system processes and system documents such as corrective and preventive actions, complaints, and other controlled records.

Combining a robust document control engine with automated workflows, standards based auditing, and employee testing capabilities, Qualtrax is an all-in-one compliance solution for ISO and other quality standards, accreditation requirements, and managing both internal and external audits.
