Sometimes starting fresh is the smartest strategy

Quality management systems can reach a point where patching and updating create more problems than they solve. Legacy systems built for different regulations, products, or scales of operation. Acquisitions that brought incompatible quality approaches. Rapid growth that outpaced infrastructure. Years of band-aid fixes that created complexity without adding value. When your QMS becomes a barrier rather than an enabler, it's time to rebuild.

QMS rebuilding isn't just about compliance. It's an opportunity to design systems that support your business objectives, streamline operations, and position you for future growth. But rebuilding while maintaining operations requires careful planning, phased implementation, and deep expertise in both regulatory requirements and change management.

Our QMS rebuilding teams have guided dozens of organizations through complete quality system transformations. We understand how to maintain compliance during transitions, minimize operational disruption, and create systems that people actually want to use.

Our QMS rebuilding services include:

  • Current state assessment and future state design
  • Quality system architecture and framework development
  • Master document hierarchy and control strategies
  • Core process identification and design
  • SOP system rebuild with templates and standards
  • Role definition and responsibility mapping
  • Quality IT system requirements and selection support
  • Phased implementation planning
  • Change management and training strategies
  • Pilot testing and refinement
  • Compliance maintenance during transition
  • Post-implementation support and optimization

A look inside our process—what we rebuild and how

Rebuilding your QMS isn’t just about replacing documents—it’s about rethinking how your quality system functions, supports operations, and meets evolving regulatory expectations. We apply a structured, phase-based approach to design and implement a QMS that’s compliant, scalable, and built for long-term success.

This process can be adapted to fit the size and maturity of your company.

  • Future State Quality System Design
    Definition of an ideal future-state QMS aligned to your product types, risk profile, markets, and growth strategy.

  • Quality System Architecture
    Development of an overarching QMS structure: process landscape, interaction mapping, and document hierarchy design.

  • Regulatory Requirements Mapping
    Identification of applicable standards and regulations:

    • FDA QSR or QMSR

    • ISO 13485

    • ICH Q10

    • EU MDR/IVDR (as applicable)

Phase 3: Implementation & Optimization

  • Phased Rollout Planning
    Implementation roadmap with manageable phases based on risk, compliance needs, and operational capacity.

  • Training and Change Management

    • Internal QMS training programs by function and process

    • Role-specific onboarding and refresher strategies

    • Communication planning for leadership and staff

  • Digital QMS and IT System Integration
    Requirements definition and support for platform selection (eQMS, LMS, eDoc, etc.), or integration into existing tools.

  • Pilot Testing & Feedback Loops
    Targeted testing of new processes and documentation to identify practical gaps and optimize before full rollout.
