Installation qualification (IQ) and operational qualification (OQ) are critical steps in the commissioning phase of any project, and also those most prone to inefficiencies. Nuanced regulatory requirements, reactive planning, and traditional commissioning approaches quickly overcomplicate this process.

• Commissioning and validation overlap
• Rigid testing timelines
• Data acquisition delays
• Lack of industry-specific builder knowledge
• Resource constraints
• FDA approvals
