- Our goal is to make it easier to understand the risk analysis process
- Perform the gap analysis of risk files based on device type
- Write the Risk Management Plan (RMP) for the concerned device
- Assess its hazards at every stage of device and create the Hazard Analysis Report (HAR)
- Analysis of Residual Risks and conclude the summary in Residual Risk Report (RRR)
- Review & update of Risk Management Report (RMR) by evaluating residual risks and collecting production and post-production information
- Perform the benefit-risk evaluation, which is in line with changing regulatory requirements such as the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR)
