Digital innovations are changing the healthcare system – but real improvements will only come about when technology can be operated intuitively. The University Hospital Bonn (UKB) and adesso have developed the ‘Mein UKB’ app to support patients and their relatives in their day-to-day hospital life. Read on to find out how user-centred design facilitates access to digital services and what role usability engineering plays in this.

Many life sciences companies are faced with the challenge of adapting their custom code to the requirements of SAP S/4HANA. Which custom developments are still needed? Which ones can be switched off or modernised? And how can the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) be used optimally? This blog post provides the answers.

SAP remains the leading standard in the life sciences industry – especially when it comes to the transformation to S/4HANA. SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) is gaining in importance. Without well-thought-out BTP governance, there is a risk of shadow IT, high costs and compliance risks. In this blog post, I show how companies can establish effective BTP governance to ensure innovation, efficiency and GxP compliance.

How can the development of medical devices be made easier and more efficient in a world of strict regulations and high safety requirements? The key lies in a strong partner: the ALM tool codeBeamer. This blog post shows how codeBeamer overcomes the challenges of medical technology. Learn practical insights, best practices and tips for project success.

Medical technology and environmental protection may seem far removed from one another, but the future demands environmentally friendly solutions in healthcare. But how do you develop sustainable medical devices that are safe and environmentally friendly? In this blog post, we take a look behind the scenes and show how to combine high-tech with environmental responsibility.

If a piece of software is designed by the vendor for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes, it is regarded as a medical device under the law. That means that the manufacturer must comply with all applicable laws and hence all guidelines set out in the different standards there are. In my blog post, I will describe how the expectations described in the standards and regulations can be presented and grouped to ensure it is possible to examine and document them as part of a larger overall process.

Working on and supporting projects in the life sciences sector means dealing with a whole host of regulatory requirements. In this blog post, I will provide an overview of which standards, regulations, laws and guidelines might be involved and what impact they have on project management.

Laboratories are working hard today to solve the problems created by the exponential increase in data. One promising approach is single source of truth (SSOT). In this blog post, I will explain the underlying concept behind SSOT as well as the advantages it brings.
