3 April 2018

Meditrial Europe is one of the first and few CROs awarded ISO 9001:2015 certification, confirming its leadership in clinical research and digital solutions for the medical device industry.

Meditrial Europe reaffirms its commitment to continued innovation and leadership in the field of clinical research and digital data management for the medical device industry, being one of the first and very few CROs to achieve ISO 9001:2015 certification.

Meditrial’s independent assessment and certification was performed by accredited UK registrar Bureau Veritas Certification Holding SAS.

“When clients entrust their project to Meditrial, they can be confident that the work will be conducted in accordance with the highest quality standards.” said Meditrial’s Medical Director Dr. Monica Tocchi.

“It’s a seal that guarantees the solid processes governing all aspects of Meditrial’s operations,” said Meditrial’s R&D and Quality Manager Daniele Zago, who coordinated the ISO 9001 certification audit. “The certification is confirmation that all systems are in place to meet clients’ expectations regarding cost, delivery time and, most importantly, quality of service.”

What is ISO 9011:2015
ISO 9001 is an evidence-based set of standardized requirements designed to enable an organization’s Quality Management System (QMS) to meet customer, statutory, regulatory and internal requirements, including quality, cost, and delivery time.

The ISO 9001 standard was created by the International Organization Standardization (ISO) through collaboration with experts from multiple global organizations and is considered a best practice around the world.

ISO 9001:2015, the latest edition of ISO’s flagship quality management systems standard, is a worldwide quality standard that helps organizations demonstrate that they offer products and services of consistently good quality.
“All companies certified to ISO 9001:2008 have three years to transition to the new standard due to the complexity of the new requirements,” said Daniele Ceccarelli, Meditrial’s legal manager. “We are pleased to tell our customers that Meditrial continues to lead the industry in compliance and innovation.”

What does it mean for our clients?
