AI Driven Risk Management

# **ISO 14971-compliant medical device risk management software**

## **Risk management is vital to build FDA-grade medical software, but error-prone manual processes leave gaps in the traceability and documentation of risks.**

Managing risks effectively can be a daunting task with the constant need to ensure comprehensive documentation, adhere to regulatory standards, and track risk controls. Without a robust system in place, teams struggle with incomplete documentation, overlooked risks, and unverified controls, leading to potential compliance issues and product release delays.

Automated Risk Management

## **Control and document every risk automatically with risk management tools**

### **Ensure comprehensive risk control**

Guarantee complete documentation of all risks and controls compliant with ISO 14971 and prevent product releases with unverified tests of risk controls (IEC 62304).

- Automatically document risks and see unverified risk controls before product release
- Easily review all risks and instantly see the associated risk controls to ensure that no gaps exist
- Get AI-suggested failure modes based on your product type and regulatory standards, reducing initial risk assessment time

### **Reduce FDA and EU MDR compliance risk**

Product releases are gated by verification and validation tests of risk controls (IEC 62304).

- Gate product releases until all risks are documented, tested, and approved
- Ensure that all necessary risk controls are in place before the product reaches the market
- Identify missing test cases and verification gaps automatically with AI analysis of your DHF, reducing V&V preparation time

### **Save time on traceability**

Save time by easily navigating across all traced items in any system with a comprehensive traceability matrix.

- Link every risk to its corresponding controls, requirements, and specifications through automated traceability
- Navigate and manage complex risk relationships with ease through an always up-to-date trace matrix
- Swap weeks of manual trace matrix creation with real-time automated connections from risks to controls to tests to verification evidence

### **Ensure QMS compliance**

Ensures SOPs are followed in any connected system in the correct order.

- Embed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) into all connected tools (like Jira and GitHub) so you maintain compliance across all systems
- Ensure that every risk is managed and documented according to industry standards with built-in guardrails
- See which requirements are risk controls directly in Jira and GitHub with visual indicators, preventing accidental removal during development

### **Recapture time to focus on high-risk items**

By focusing on high-risk items, you can allocate resources more effectively and ensure that all significant risks are properly controlled.

- Automate low value, time intensive activities to make time for critical activities
- Easily identify and manage the most critical risks with robust filtering capabilities
- Identify which risks are affected by code changes in minutes with AI-assisted impact analysis, reducing post-market update cycles from weeks to days

### **Give risks and risk controls equivalent priority**

- Focus your energy on the most important risks and risk controls by quickly seeing critical risks
- Eliminate unnecessary work by ensuring that development efforts are focused on only those Risk Controls that mitigate the risk identified
- Ensure that Risk Controls adequately address Risks and are properly traced
- Flag unacceptable residual risk automatically in real-time before production, enabling proactive mitigation instead of reactive compliance checks
