Quality Assurance
At BCAS Biomed we have a robust quality management system designed around managing risk in medical devices. We have been successfully supporting our customers in providing safe and effective patient care since 2005.
We are certified by the British Standards Institute to both BS EN ISO 13485 and BS EN ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems standards.
Our ongoing certification to these standards provides assurance to our customers of the high standard of medical device management they receive from BCAS Biomed and confidence that we meet all applicable regulatory requirements related to maintaining equipment, on their behalf.
We support our customers in maintaining a risk management system, and work with them to ensure compliance with BS EN ISO 14971, Application of Risk Management to Medical Devices standard.
Effective quality management results in more effective, efficient, and importantly, safer practices. BCAS Biomed facilitate our customers providing safe and effective patient care.
