Regulatory Submissions & Compliance


The regulatory submissions stage of a medical device is key to demonstrating compliance with safety regulations and enabling market access. During this stage, our clients must create comprehensive documentation about their device to evidence safety and justify claims. We help translate this documentation into all the languages necessary for submission, ensuring conformity with international and local regulatory requirements.

Overcoming the Challenges of Regulatory Submissions.


Completing regulatory submissions for medical devices is a challenging process, often far less centralized than the equivalent process for pharmaceuticals. We’ve got specialist teams, workflows, and tools in place to tackle those challenges and help you get your device into international markets.

Submissions to regulatory authorities tend to come with extremely tight timelines. We have developed custom workflows and AI efficiency tools to streamline and speed up the translation process. This, combined with our expert linguists, allows us to consistently manage these timelines with ease.

Another major challenge our clients encounter in this phase is the sheer volume of content they need to produce and maintain. The purpose of the submission process is to evidence transparently and holistically the entire development journey of the device to this point. This entails creation and management of a wealth of documentation, much of which is interdependent and must be updated regularly. When multilingual versions are factored in, the whole process can become very resource-intensive. Our clients centralize their multilingual content management with us – trusting us to perform original translations, multilingual updates, and careful version control.

Finally, there’s the varying and complex regulations our clients need to satisfy internationally. The Conversis regulatory team remains up to date with global regulatory shifts, while our in-country linguists keep us, and our clients, on top of local changes. As such, we ensure that submissions consistently meet requirements across all territories.

FAQs.

How do you ensure compliance with international regulations?

Conversis has been helping our clients with regulatory submissions for over 20 years. We even acquired a specialist regulatory agency in 2021 to further strengthen our offering.

Our regulatory team keeps up to date with developments in international regulation, and our linguists are on the ground in more than 110 countries, with deep knowledge of their local regulatory environments.

What are the costs and timelines for translation?

Translation costs and timelines can vary based on a number of factors, such as language combinations, volumes, and service levels.

We analyze each new project and create a quote, which includes cost and turnaround details.

Often, for regulatory submissions, the relevant bodies will have strict timeline requirements. In these cases, we implement workflows designed around these bodies’ submission processes.

What quality accreditations do you have?

Conversis is accredited to the ISO standards for quality (ISO 9001), translation services (ISO 17100), and information security (ISO 27001). These standards form the basis of our quality management system (QMS), which is foundational to the business and all of its functions.
