Meeting ISO 13485:2016 Requirements with GitLab

Using GitLab as a Quality Management System for ISO 13485:2016

ISO 13485:2016 is an international standard specifying requirements for a quality management system (QMS) for organizations involved in one or more stages of the medical device lifecycle - from design to disposal - including the suppliers and vendors to those organizations.

Using GitLab's portfolio and project management (PPM) tools, you may be able to drive compliance with requirements across ISO 13485:2016.

Can GitLab be used as part of an ISO 13485:2016 QMS?

GitLab offers many features and controls that may be useful as part of an ISO 13485:2016 QMS. Because GitLab isn’t a compliance tool and makes no guarantees about compliance, every application used as part of your QMS must be evaluated based on your unique requirements and needs.

GitLab can be used as both an application within the QMS and as a functional tool to enable faster development and deployment. By merging PPM under the same roof as development and deployment, you can better centralize and simplify your QMS while increasing collaboration between teams and reducing silos.

One solution to creating validation procedures are description templates:

Another solution to creating validation procedures is the wiki:
