Designing a Supplier Qualification Program: One and a Half-day In-Person Seminar

Manufacturers bear the responsibility for every step in their supply chain to ensure they provide quality finished medical devices beyond what can be achieved through testing and inspection, meaning overall quality depends on quality of raw materials, components and services. In addition, manufacturers must make sure that all aspects of the supply chain are compliant with regulatory and quality system requirements.
