FAQ: QMSR
The FDA Quality Management System Regulation replaces the former Quality System Regulation and aligns 21 CFR Part 820 with ISO 13485. QMSR establishes requirements for quality management systems used in the design manufacturing and distribution of medical devices in the United States.
The FDA Quality Management System Regulation becomes effective on February 2, 2026. Medical device manufacturers must ensure their quality management systems are updated and compliant by this date to avoid regulatory risk.
QMSR harmonizes FDA requirements with ISO 13485 by incorporating the ISO standard by reference. While some FDA-specific requirements remain QMSR reduces duplication for organizations already certified to ISO 13485 and supports global regulatory alignment.
QMSR does not require organizations to obtain ISO 13485 certification. However quality management systems must meet ISO 13485 requirements as incorporated into the FDA regulation along with FDA-specific provisions.
QT9 QMS provides connected digital workflows for document control design controls risk management CAPA audits training and change management helping organizations align quality processes with QMSR requirements and maintain inspection readiness.
The FDA QMSR applies to medical device manufacturers and other organizations subject to FDA medical device regulations including companies that design produce store or distribute medical devices intended for the US market.
