Digitizing validation
We enable regulated organizations to move from paper-based validation to intelligent, digitized, paperless solutions.
And we do it through the ongoing development of a powerful, purpose-built software platform. In 2014, after 8 years of intensive software development, we launched the world’s most advanced validation software to help revolutionize the speed, precision, transparency and intelligence of validation in the Life Sciences sector. The solution is now used by some of the world’s leading Life Sciences companies.
Our new implementations range from a single validation process, in one location, to full deployments for multiple processes over many sites, with thousands of users; all supported by our teams in the US, Ireland and Switzerland. Our global operational headquarters and development teams are based in Ireland, and the company is listed on the TSX Exchange (TSX: KSI).
Helping life sciences move to end-to-end paperless validation was going to require the development of a very comprehensive, intelligent software platform. There were some basic software solutions available but nothing that could deliver a home-run. From day one we set out to create the ‘best-in-class’ solution. One that could 100% enable digitization and instigate a mass movement from the world of clunky paper-based validation. We were fortunate to assemble an outstanding development team in Ireland and to receive excellent advisory and financial support from our investment partners.
In 2014 the first, fully complete, fully tested model rolled out. It was an instant hit, is now used by some of the world’s leading life sciences companies and is quickly gaining acceptance as the top solution for the digital transformation of all commissioning, qualification and validation processes. It’s very satisfying to bring speed, intelligence, quality and compliance to an industry where there was inefficiency, error and frustration.
