Our vision
Qualifyze (former ChemSquare) was founded out of a Ph.D. program at the Technical University of Darmstadt in September 2017 with the mission to increase transparency and safety across the pharmaceutical supply chain. Our vision is to eliminate quality risks in life science supply chains by creating a digitally connected ecosystem. Today we operate the first online platform for GxP audits that connects pharma companies, suppliers, and auditors. The Qualifyze platform provides customers access to an extensive network of qualified auditors. It further allows them to request supplier audits in just a few clicks and enables the tracking of all CAPAs. Through the sharing of audits with several pharma companies, the audit burden for suppliers is reduced and the CAPA update to customers is simplified. Our Team consists of more than 30 people, all experts within their field. Our quality team comprises of employees with extensive experience in the pharma auditing industry. The Qualifyze Tech & Product team builds the back-bone for our vision. Data integrity, cybersecurity, and a holistic service approach are at the forefront of everything that we do. Cooperation and exchange are the guiding principles of our sales team so that we can thoroughly understand your need to act accordingly and provide a solution tailored to your needs.
Enabled by new digital technologies, we see great potential in creating one single digital network, in which customers, suppliers, auditors, subcontractors and official authorities are connected and continuously exchange quality data in a secure way. A global pool of independent and accredited auditors, who audit suppliers around the globe on a regular and demand-driven basis, publish their results on our platform. This enables customers to continuously receive qualification-relevant information without having to conduct extensive audits themselves. They have access to a customized supplier monitoring dashboard, and receive the most recent and relevant quality data on their suppliers. Due to higher re-use of quality data, the overall number of supplier audits is reduced. This leads to significant cost reduction for all industry stakeholders, while also increasing transparency and safety along the value chain.
