EYE-OPENER BREAKFAST DISCUSSION Are Your Vendors in Data Integrity Compliance? — Approaches to Auditing Software Vendors Using Agile SDLC Methodologies
With the advent of new Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) methodologies, such as Agile, software vendors have changed their approaches to developing software significantly over the last 10 years, including how software development is managed and documented. In the case that software vendors also provide Software-as-a- Service (SaaS) capabilities to their clients, the risk to regulated companies increases significantly if the vendor’s quality system and SDLC processes are not adequately evaluated during an audit. These new processes require new approaches and expectations when auditing software vendors.
