LineWorks SQM (Supplier Quality Management)
Incoming Material Quality Control for Your Entire Supply Chain
Elevating Supplier Quality Management
LineWorks SQM, an add-on module to LineWorks SPACE, empowers manufacturers to collaborate more effectively with global suppliers and subcontractors.
With electronic Certificates of Analysis (eCoA), you can implement, verify, and continuously improve quality standards across your entire supply chain. This module reduces the effort required for Incoming Quality Control (IQC), and in the case of trusted suppliers, IQC can even be bypassed entirely.

Regulatory Compliance and Audit
The medical devices industry is no stranger to regulatory standards and evaluations to ensure the safety and efficacy of the product to patients. Whether it’s NDR, FDA, audits, or any other regulations, data integrity, quality, security, and traceability throughout the production process are of paramount importance.
Quality Control and Assurance
Traceability is the key to quality control and assurance by documenting every manufacturing process step. This can be crucial information for regulation and audit processes – even in case of a recall.
Technological Advancement and Integration
With the surge of technological advancements, digital solutions for the medical devices industry expanded. This brings a solution for a more effective and efficient manufacturing process and documentation – say no more to papers and physical archiving!
Cost Management and Pricing Pressure
The production costs can be high when prioritizing only the best quality outputs for the market and other factors. This can increase market prices, hindering its accessibility and affordability for consumers.
