TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pilgrim Quality Solutions, a leading global provider of enterprise quality management software and services for the Life Sciences industry, is the recipient of Frost & Sullivan’s 2016 North American Enterprise Quality Management Solution for Medical Devices Customer Value Leadership Award. Pilgrim was recognized and received this award at Frost & Sullivan’s 2016 Growth, Innovation, and Leadership Awards Gala on September 13 in Santa Clara, Calif.
“This acknowledgment from Frost & Sullivan validates our leadership position and the impact of our commitment and proactive, customer-centric approach to supporting the quality and compliance initiatives of Life Sciences organizations worldwide”
The award recognizes companies that offer unique value-added services to customers that allow them to reduce costs, increase operational efficiency, and effectively address potential risks and compliance issues. Frost & Sullivan’s analyst team selected Pilgrim Quality Solutions following interviews with industry market participant and clients, rigorous analysis, and extensive secondary research to identify best practices among software providers in the Life Sciences industry.
“Medical device companies need an enterprise quality management solution that not only supports high growth, but also possesses preventive and predictive capabilities to minimize risk and avoid penalties and repeated product recalls,” said Sankara Narayanan, Senior Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. “Nevertheless, with many of the quality processes and requirements constantly evolving in the medical devices industry, and as new requirements come into effect rapidly, companies require an easy-to-use, extensible, adaptable, and configurable out-of-the-box quality management solution with flexible processes.”
Pilgrim’s SmartSolve® enterprise quality management solution is uniquely designed to address the needs of customers, as well as address service, supply chain, and product complexities in the medical devices and Life Sciences industries. Because the solution is deployed in large enterprise environments and across multiple countries and organizations, the SmartSolve platform has been designed with accessibility, scalability, and security features.
“Pilgrim Quality Solutions continues to grow as a leading global Enterprise Quality Management Solution provider by working closely with each of our customers, and delivering industry best practices and support for regulatory compliance, while constantly expanding innovations to meet the industry’s evolving needs,” said Rick Lowrey, Pilgrim’s Chief Executive Officer. “Over the years, we’ve seen that our customers worldwide trust and rely on our quality and compliance platform, solutions, and people in support of their quality and growth strategies.”
Pilgrim’s unique value proposition is in its ability to provide global visibility of quality data and to structure that data in a meaningful manner. SmartSolve is based on harmonizing global processes and organization hierarchies so data can be structured to accommodate internal and local needs with equal ease. Additionally, SmartSolve’s single and dedicated repository of quality data provides customers with agility and simple access to data. The availability of advanced analytics enables decision makers to transform that data into actionable insights.
“This acknowledgment from Frost & Sullivan validates our leadership position and the impact of our commitment and proactive, customer-centric approach to supporting the quality and compliance initiatives of Life Sciences organizations worldwide,” Lowrey said. “It’s through the hard work of our employees and their dedication to customer satisfaction that we’ve built our success.”
