Pop quiz: Which of these things is most important to a successful GxP-regulated organization:
If you chose secret option “E. All of the above,” you passed. And you just proved why an electronic quality management system is critical. QMS software makes each of these things possible without putting more strain on the Quality team. That’s a win-win for everyone.
So why do quality teams often struggle to secure budget for the quality management tools their organizations need?
Most of the time, it’s because the benefits get lost in translation.
To get leadership onboard with a QMS software investment, you have to speak the language of the C-suite. That means focusing on data, business impact, and the ROI of an eQMS.
As part of our eQMS University series for Quality Management teams, we covered these exact topics with Quality leaders who have seen the impact better quality tools can have on GxP organizations – and know how to work with the C-suite to get them.
Take a look at the highlights from two of our eQMS University webinars below.
Quality teams have access to a lot of GxP-critical data. And with the right eQMS, they can find – and report on – that data in a way that fuels continuous improvement for their organizations; a huge focus for the C-suite.
In our eQMS University webinar featuring Sandy Hedberg, VP of Quality and Regulatory Affairs at ARC-One Solutions, we covered:
One of the most important takeaways from Sandy's session? Getting leadership buy-in will take more than an email with a few Quality data points. Take time to explain the story the data tells, the impact on the business, and the reasoning behind your Quality activities. That's how you build the foundation for a culture of quality.

Quality teams can be their own worst enemy.
Their ability to “grin and bear it,” and their quiet, steadfast commitment to compliance means they can often pass audits and manage quality at a basic level even without the right tools.
But how long is “good enough” actually good enough when it comes to quality, risk, and ultimately, consumer safety? Quality leaders have to figure out how to make their leadership teams see the importance of investing in better quality management tools… before it’s too late.
We know half of the equation is data. The other half? Messaging.
That’s why we chatted with Tim Reinhardt, a Quality leader with over 30 years of experience at GxP-regulated organizations both big and small, about what works – and what doesn’t – when advocating for more resources for the Quality team.
