Proprietary Data & Precedent Validation

MFDS AI/SaMD Review Checklist, Clinical Dataset & PCCP Validation DB

100% Alignment with MFDS AI/SaMD Software V&V, Clinical Performance & PCCP Criteria

Engineered 4-Stage Workflow

4-Stage Authorization Pipeline from Dataset/Architecture Audit to MFDS Approval

Step 01 / 04Stage Gate & Output

AI Model Architecture, Training/Test Dataset & IEC 62304 Class Locked

Incomplete baseline data or misclassified regulatory pathways are the primary drivers of multi-month submission delays. Gate 01 locks the device scope, predicate/standard mapping, and full document inventory before authoring begins.

Verification Baseline

Device description, intended use, existing test reports, and QMS document index

Gate Sign-Off Output

Confirmed classification matrix and locked submission master inventory

Agentic Automation & Platform Integration

Continuous AI Release Governance: SRS, SBOM & PCCP Change Control Automation

Automated Traceability: SRS ↔ Architecture (SDS) ↔ V&V & Anomaly Logs

Maintains live bi-directional links between software requirements, test execution logs, and unresolved anomaly justifications.

@Requirements Management— Run "Automated Traceability: SRS ↔ Architecture (SDS) ↔ V&V & Anomaly Logs" across our AI/SaMD Authorization records and call out the highest-priority compliance findings first.

I'll inspect the linked quality and dossier records against target regulatory standards, then report actionable findings with verified outputs.

Thought for 4.2s · Explored Requirements Management records & 14 regulatory clauses

P1 · Verified Agent Output· AI Model Architecture, Training/Test Dataset & IEC 62304 Class Locked

Maintains live bi-directional links between software requirements, test execution logs, and unresolved anomaly justifications. Traceability from specification to verification

AI Model Retraining & PCCP Boundary Verification Log

Verifies whether algorithm weight updates remain within MFDS-approved PCCP performance envelopes or require formal amendment.

@Risk Management— Run "AI Model Retraining & PCCP Boundary Verification Log" across our AI/SaMD Authorization records and call out the highest-priority compliance findings first.

I'll inspect the linked quality and dossier records against target regulatory standards, then report actionable findings with verified outputs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The Digital Medical Products Act institutionalized cloud-based SaMD approvals provided server security and SLA data are validated.

Upon receiving any deficiency notice from MFDS or a review body, our specialists dissect the reviewer’s statutory intent against historical clearance precedents. We separate items resolvable via technical justification from those requiring supplementary bench data, draft the complete formal response package, and manage reviewer alignment through final closure.

Yes. However, direct translation without regulatory reconciliation frequently triggers rejections due to standard edition mismatches or Korea National Deviations. We map your existing IECEE CB / ILAC test reports and global dossiers 1:1 against MFDS recognized standards to maximize evidence reuse and avoid redundant laboratory testing.

Our workflow is engineered to minimize engineering disruption. Once your team provides baseline source files (specifications, BOM, existing reports) during Stage 1 intake, Leanabl handles the heavy lifting: statutory mapping, Korean regulatory authoring, traceability matrix compilation, electronic portal filing, and agency correspondence. Your team only reviews and signs off at structured stage gates.

We immediately perform a regulatory change impact assessment to determine whether the modification requires a formal Technical File amendment, minor notification, or internal QMS documentation update. Because all deliverables are structured into modular digital assets, subsequent design iterations only require updating the affected sections rather than rebuilding the dossier from scratch.
