Audit readiness remains a key challenge for life sciences organisations operating across increasingly complex and distributed environments. As companies move away from paper-based quality processes and evaluate digital systems, many teams are asking the same question: how can QMS transformation be planned in a practical, structured, and compliant way?
To continue this discussion, eLife Sciences and EXTEDO are hosting the second session of the webinar series:
Audit Readiness in the Digital Age of Life Sciences – Part II
Date: 21 May 2026
Time: 14:00–15:00 CEST | 08:00–09:00 EDT
This standalone session will focus on the practical side of digital QMS transformation: from evaluating the need for change to understanding how implementation, workflows, and automation can support quality processes in regulated environments.
The webinar will feature:
- Dr. Andrea Rohatschek Striebel, Senior Product Manager at EXTEDO
- Michał Timler, Validation Business Unit Director at eConsulting
Using a real-life example of a mid-sized organisation working with paper-based processes across multiple locations, the speakers will explore how companies can approach QMS digitalisation step by step.
What the webinar will cover
During the session, participants will gain perspective on:
- how to evaluate and justify digital QMS transformation
- practical considerations behind QMS implementation planning
- workflow transparency and process efficiency in digital environments
- the role of automation and AI in complaint handling and quality processes
- how structured digital workflows can support audit readiness
The webinar will also include a practical demonstration showing how modern quality workflows can improve visibility, collaboration, and operational consistency.
This session is especially relevant for professionals working across quality assurance, validation, compliance, regulatory operations, and digital transformation in life sciences.
Why digital QMS transformation matters
Moving from paper-based quality processes to a digital QMS involves more than system implementation. Organisations must consider process structure, operational readiness, distributed teams, validation requirements, and long-term scalability.
For companies operating in regulated environments, digital quality systems can support better transparency, more consistent workflows, improved process control, and a stronger foundation for audit preparation.
Register for the webinar
Whether your organisation is considering QMS digitalisation, planning implementation, or exploring ways to improve quality workflows, this webinar will provide practical insight into the process and the challenges behind it.
