How Zimmer Biomet Leverages Digital Transformation to Streamline the Regulatory Process

Linda Heth & Sajesh Murali

For medical device manufacturers, ever-changing global regulations like EU MDR are big drivers to supercharge digital strategies with harmonized data across PLM, quality, and regulatory information management (RIM) systems. Join this session to learn how Zimmer Biomet manages critical data from these systems using ThingWorx to provide role-based apps that leverage the right data for the right people at the right time. The system includes an aggregated workflow, enhanced visibility, improved collaboration, decision-making support, and audit tracking. Users and stakeholders can track and view all recertification information like status, regulatory data, and supply chain information. The integration with PLM means all product information comes from a single source of truth. With data in PLM and RIM as a foundation, and ThingWorx as the centralized point of reference, Zimmer Biomet can meet regulatory requirements and make critical product decisions with confidence.
