SAP GxP Compliance
Validate SAP in Hours and Stay Compliant with Automated Testing
Recognized worldwide as a leader in the life sciences industry, SAP helps your teams manage complex processes with ease, centralize data management, enable real-time access to information with the HANA In-Memory Database, and provide best-in-class solutions for supply chain and manufacturing operations.
USDM Life Sciences verifies that your SAP implementation meets U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 21 CFR Part 11 and other relevant regulatory requirements and manages GxP compliance for SAP customers.
How USDM and SAP S/4HANA Support Your Business Process
SAP S/4HANA cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) equips you to scale your business globally and meet worldwide regulatory requirements. Combined with a USDM Cloud Assurance subscription, your system remains in a state of compliance after any upgrade in the cloud.
USDM’s SAP and compliance expertise keeps you fully compliant in the cloud at a fraction of the cost of traditional approaches. Using traditional Computer System Validation (CSV) or Computer Software Assurance (CSA) methodologies and automated testing tools, USDM provides an efficient and cost-effective way to achieve and sustain compliance.
USDM Cloud Assurance Benefits
Cloud Assurance provides continuous validation, compliance monitoring, and risk mitigation for cloud-based platforms in the highly regulated life sciences industry. It ensures that your system meets regulatory requirements (e.g., FDA 21 CFR Part 11, GxP) without interrupting operations.
It also:
- Validates a system quickly and efficiently to bring it into a compliant state for GxP regulations
- Reduces implementation and validation time with a solid roadmap to the cloud
- Maintains continuous compliance by managing SAP S/4HANA cloud releases
- Decreases risk, validation time, and cost of ownership
- Establishes a compliant IT foundation for scalable technology solutions that grow your business
- Accelerates innovation with compliant-ready solutions
SAP is currently promoting the upgrade to the SAP S/4HANA version to their customer base and aims to complete this by 2027. The earlier your company plans for this move, the less complex it will be to transition to the cloud.
