Friendly audit of software vendors

Regulators require organization to assess and approve suppliers of critical IT infrastructure and software applications.  Hire an experienced, certified auditor to audit IT providers on your behalf.

Regulatory Agencies Expect that Your Software Vendors are Validated

Regulations such as FDA 21 CFR 820 and EU Annex 11 require documented evaluations of critical suppliers, including software vendors.

The FDA’s General Principles of Computer System Validation, recommends auditing the design, development and testing methodologies of off-the-shelf software vendors.

International regulators have similar expectations.  For example, Eudralex’s Annex 11 states that “audit information relating to suppliers or developers of software and implemented systems should be made available to inspectors on request.”
