회사 소개

A global medical device company founded in 1856, Smith & Nephew employs 10,000 people in 36 countries.

도전 과제

Smith & Nephew’s orthopedic unit began searching for a product lifecycle management and collaboration tool in 1999 to replace its non-millennial compliant PDM system. As a medical device company operating in the United States, Smith & Nephew is also bound by FDA regulations. Any new system must comply with those regulations, especially 21 CFR Part 11 (commonly referred to as Part 11), that pertain to electronic records and electronic signatures.

다쏘시스템의 응답

In addition to meeting Smith & Nephew’s needs for a millenniumcompliant product lifecycle management tool, eMatrix’s high degree of flexibility ensured Smith & Nephew could configure the system to comply with the FDA’s Part 11 regulations.
