| Santa Clara,
CA - July 30, 2003 - Expandable Software,
specialists in integrated business management
systems for start-up and growing medical technology
manufacturers, is now delivering pre-written
software validation scripts for FDA-regulated
companies. |
| In the July,
2003 issue of Bio-IT World*, columnist Michael
A. Greeley, Managing General Partner of IDG
Ventures, pointed out that in Q1 2003, "A
total of 404 companies were (venture) funded
in Q1 2003, raising $3.4 billion. The bio/phama,
medical device and bio-IT categories accounted
for 74 of these companies, raising nearly
$700 million." |
| According
to Jerry Lass, Vice President and co-founder
of Expandable Software, "The scripts
and validation services are expected to amplify
Expandable's already significant share of
the venture-funded startup manufacturer market.
A high percentage of our startup customers
compete in the medical technology arena. These
scripts and services ensure that our medical
technology customers don't divert an inordinate
amount of time and resources tending to complex
validation issues. Our goal is to help our
startup customers bridge the gap from concept
to profitability as quickly as possible. Expediting
the compliance issue reduces a major hurdle,
accelerating growth and success." |
|
The pre-written scripts streamline validation
of Expandable's ERP system as required by
companies operating under FDA guidelines.
The scripts facilitate the Operational Qualification
(OQ) and Installation Qualification (IQ)
phases of the software validation process
by outlining individual steps and pre-building
elements that apply directly to validation
of the Expandable system. |

are kept low and margins high while adhering
