Case Study: Convergent Dental slashes audit prep from 3 weeks to 1 day and gains live requirements traceability with Jama Software (Jama Connect)

Convergent Dental chooses Jama Connect to manage compliance through in-depth reviews and to save valuable engineering time

Convergent Dental, a Needham, MA–based developer of the FDA‑cleared Solea CO2 dental laser, struggled with slow, manual requirements and traceability processes built on Word and Excel. As a small team, engineers spent hours updating multiple documents and hunting down evidence for regulatory submissions, which slowed development and audit readiness.

Convergent adopted Jama Connect for its quick adoption, out‑of‑the‑box design‑control configurations and Live Traceability™ to automate requirements relationships through verification and validation. The platform cut audit preparation from three weeks to one day, streamlined review cycles, recovered valuable engineering time, and set the team up to expand Jama Connect into test management.
