STAEDEAN Life Sciences versus Merit Solutions
Pros
Simple technology stack: STAEDEAN Life Sciences ERP software includes built-in features that reduce the need for external warehouse management and LIMS systems. It offers advanced security and data management capabilities, and seamlessly integrates with scales for weighing and dispensing; unifying operations in a single solution and eliminating the inefficiencies of disconnected tools.
Ease of validation: STAEDEAN Life Sciences software’s streamlined architecture and out-of-the-box industry-specific functionality simplify the validation process. Additionally, our Validation Toolkit, with a library of business processes, pre-written requirements, and other supporting documents, accelerates validation, saving time and costs.
Project control management: The solution provides advanced financial controls for project-based manufacturing, enabling better control for Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs) and Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations (CDMOs).
ISO Certification: The solution’s ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 27001:2022 certifications reflect STAEDEAN’s commitment to robust quality management and data security.
Cons
Limited CAPA functionality: The STAEDEAN Life Sciences software prioritizes quality control functions like sampling, analytical testing, and quality inspection over CAPA and deviations management; it does, however, interface with external Quality Management Systems (QMS) using a configuration-based, low-code integration module.
No dedicated training module: While STAEDEAN does not offer a dedicated training management module, training requirements can be effectively addressed through the D365 Human Capital Management module, which supports role- and employee-specific training mapping.
