BURLINGTON, Mass., Sept.19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ETQ, part of Hexagon, the leading quality management system (QMS) provider, is honored to have Lotus Clinical Research, a leading clinical research organization (CRO), join its roster of life sciences firms that are gaining advantage and reducing risk with ETQ's Reliance QMS serving as the foundational system for its enterprise-wide quality management program. 

"We're always pleased to see how our life sciences customers are able to adapt the ETQ Reliance platform to meet their specific needs, ensure compliance and help them automate core clinical processes, and Lotus Clinical Research stands out as a digital innovator," said David Isaacson, Vice President, Product Marketing ETQ. "As effective quality management moves beyond a single role to become an essential business driver and a catalyst for data-driven decision velocity, we're thrilled to be working closely with Lotus Clinical Research to help them unlock the vast potential of automated and connected quality." 

Lotus Clinical Research first turned to ETQ for help digitizing previously manual functions, establishing standard operating procedures (SOPs) and allowing quality data, previously stuck in silos, to become centralized for greater enterprise-wide visibility. 

Using ETQ Reliance, Lotus was able to accomplish these goals, as well as automate other core quality functions, such as document control and corrective and preventative actions (CAPA) plans. Lotus is also using the Training Management application within Reliance to manage training requirements and ensure staff fully understand all SOPs.

"Thanks to our collaboration with ETQ, we have substantially enhanced the efficiency and effectiveness of our quality management organization. The intuitive nature of the ETQ interface has led to broad adoption and a very high compliance rate across our organization, and as a result we are now audit-ready at any time," said, Lotus President, Bill Martin, Ph.D. "ETQ Reliance has become a key driver to the success of our quality programs and we continue to discover new ways the solution can drive success across core SOPs and functions."
