Tampa, FL – February 17, 2012 -- Pilgrim Software, Inc., a world-leading provider of Enterprise Risk, Compliance and Quality Management (ERCQM) software solutions, today announced that Medela Inc., the Swiss-based leading manufacturer of breast pumps and post-natal supplies, will implement Pilgrim’s Complaints Management solution for the company’s Customer Services department to expedite complaint handling and associated regulatory reporting processes. Pilgrim’s Complaints Management provides Medela a single source data center for tracking and managing all customer complaints within its facilities. It enables rapid complaint resolution through its e-mail notifications, and tracking and escalation capabilities; improves the management of customer communication; and, ensures regulatory and industry compliance.
Medela chose to automate its complaints processing and eliminate manual systems, allowing for enhanced visibility into data, and easier tracking and trending analyses. Pilgrim’s solution will enable Medela to more efficiently manage customer complaints and to document responses to incidents. Because of its inherent scalability, the solution also can be expanded should Medela add users, and it can be easily integrated with other automated quality and compliance management solutions.
“The breadth of Pilgrim’s solution provides Medela with the capabilities we sought to boost the overall traceability of our transactions,” said Johannes Mulder, Medela’s Director of Information Technology. “With Complaints Management, we will be able to more effectively manage customer complaints and to more efficiently document responses, while keeping our IT costs in check.”
“This solution is the right software for life sciences companies like Medela because it provides confidence in their complaint handling and overall quality assurance efforts,” said Thierry Durand, Pilgrim’s Chief Executive Officer.
