Ventilator Manufacturer Scales with AssurX to Maximize Patient Safety and Build a Strong Brand

Nihon Kohden OrangeMed, a start‑up division focused on a newly designed ventilator, faced the challenge of replacing a paper‑based document system with a secure, scalable digital quality management system that would meet FDA and ISO requirements and connect all quality processes from the start.

They implemented a highly configured AssurX QMS (7‑month rollout with a 3‑month parallel validation), imported historical data, and added document, training, calibration, supplier, CAPA and complaint/MDR workflows. The system enabled rapid, compliant scale‑up during the COVID pandemic, supported 510(k) approval and multiple favorable global audits, reduced calibration overdue events, and delivered a single source of truth that strengthened patient safety and the company’s brand.
