Use Compliance To Go Faster

One-hour Zoom session for executive members of the Squirrel Squadron.

Price: Free.

My clients cure diseases, provide theraputic interventions, and make medical devices—but they still release software daily or weekly, and their compliance teams and regulators are ecstatic about it.

Finance, medical tech, human safety—all these sound like hostile environments for "marking to market" by making speedy changes and failing fast. I remember working in a startup that held both kids' personal information and parents' bank details, a combination that led to some sleepless nights and tough decisions, I can tell you!

But I've helped clients in these and other tightly regulated industries to learn from customers in tight loops, and their compliance people were with us all the way! In fact, there are factors that make it easier and better for red-tape-laden organisations to adopt frequent releases and experiments, and there are lessons here which everyone in every industry would do well to learn. Join me on this free Zoom call to discuss:

The painless way to get accredited, whether it's HIPPA or ISO-27001 or SQUIRL-42 (I made one of those up).
Why auditors (and everyone else) love unit tests, also known as automatic, always up-to-date paper trails.
How frequent communication delights safety inspectors, and a story about the instant responses made possible by good technical design.
