Webinar Overview

In an evolving business landscape, transitioning from an on-premises Quality Management System (QMS) to a cloud-based electronic QMS (eQMS) is not just a technical upgrade, but a significant strategic shift. Upcoming on September 29, 2025, Xtalks will be hosting a free webinar aimed at industries heavily regulated like life sciences and manufacturing. This session will delve into the essential reasons driving organizations to move to a SaaS eQMS.

Understanding the Shift

Many organizations still rely on traditional on-premises QMS solutions. However, as vendors discontinue support for these legacy systems, the urgency for change becomes apparent. Doron Sitbon, Founder and CEO of Dot Compliance, along with other experts, will lead this interactive discussion on leveraging SaaS eQMS for improved agility, compliance, and scalability.

The shift to cloud solutions inherently addresses several limitations of on-premises systems, including:

• - High IT Maintenance: Organizations are often burdened with maintaining complex infrastructures that require significant IT resources.
• - Siloed Data: On-premises systems frequently lead to isolated data, making it challenging to achieve a comprehensive view of processes.
• - Manual Updates: The reliance on manual updates can hamper operational efficiency and increase the risk of non-compliance.

In contrast, a SaaS eQMS provides numerous benefits, including:

• - Built-in Scalability: It easily grows with the organization’s needs without the requirement for complex adjustments.
• - Real-time Global Access: Teams can access crucial data remotely, enhancing collaboration and immediacy in decision-making.
• - Improved Visibility: A cloud-based system offers better insights into quality processes, facilitating quicker adjustments and interventions.

Compliance Insights

For organizations operating within regulated sectors, compliance is non-negotiable. SaaS eQMS platforms are poised to support adherence to critical guidelines like the FDA 21 CFR Part 11, the EU Annex 11, and stringent GxP principles. Most vendors offer validation toolkits that significantly lower the burden of compliance and bolster inspection readiness. The importance of compliance remains at the heart of the discussion during the webinar as experts will explore how to implement an effective eQMS while adhering to industry mandates.

Importance of Migration Strategy

Transitioning to a SaaS eQMS does not solely involve technology installation—it requires a well-thought-out migration plan. A successful transfer from an on-premises setup necessitates meticulous planning, effective change management strategies, and a robust partnership between the organization and its service provider. The webinar will focus on best practices for managing this undertaking and the importance of collaboration to unlock the full potential of a cloud-based QMS.
