Therapeutic biotech · separate expansion conceptFrom quality signal
From quality signal
to defensible QA decision.
Connect deviations and OOS signals with lots, suppliers, equipment, methods, analysts, procedures, and change history. AI assembles evidence and drafts hypotheses; qualified QA retains every material decision.
Not included in the current baseline. This concept sits outside the 1,027-requirement, 1,055-source medical-device/IVD PRD. Pharmaceutical and biologic production coverage requires a separate requirements, source, validation, and country-pack program.

Connected investigation
Quality evidence across the batch lifecycle.
The QMS coordinates evidence and decisions. It does not replace LIMS, MES, ERP, pharmacovigilance, or qualified release authority.

Control matrix
What the expansion does—and does not—claim.
“Supported demo” means an interactive synthetic-data demonstration. Customer intended-use validation is always required.

QMS coordinates decisions; source systems execute testing and manufacturing
Separate research horizon
Candidate sources—not implemented requirements.
These sources inform a future therapeutic-biotech program. They are not part of the current medical-device/IVD PRD, do not establish product coverage, and require use-case-specific interpretation. ICH Q10 is a lifecycle model—not a certification.
