Verification & Validation

Prove It. Document It. Defend It.

Regulators do not approve intentions.

They approve evidence.

Verification and Validation (V&V) is where engineering decisions are tested, documented, and defended. Under IEC 62304, ISO 14971, ISO 13485, and FDA expectations, V&V must demonstrate that:

• Requirements are fulfilled

• Risks are controlled

• Design outputs meet intended use

• Testing is structured and reproducible

• Results are traceable and reviewable

Ashoka was built to operationalize this discipline.

We help organizations transform fragmented testing activities into structured, defensible validation architecture.

Verification & Validation

  • Freelong Health Do Something Great

    Design It.

    Verification begins long before execution.

    We evaluate your V&V Master Plan, safety classification, and lifecycle documentation to ensure testing scope aligns with software risk classification and intended use.

    We assess:

    • Requirements-to-test coverage completeness
    • Risk-to-test mapping integrity
    • Safety classification alignment
    • Verification depth proportional to risk
    • Traceability matrix structure
    • Configuration and baseline control

    Weak V&V architecture creates regulatory vulnerability.

    We ensure your validation strategy is structured before test execution begins.

    Execute It.

    Testing without traceability is noise.

    We support structured execution through:

    • Unit, integration, and system test protocol review

    • Risk-based test prioritization

    • Regression strategy alignment

    • Acceptance criteria clarity

    • Configuration-controlled test records

    • Validation report defensibility

    Every requirement must be testable.

    Every test must be traceable.

    Every failure must be documented and resolved through controlled processes.

    We ensure your verification evidence tells a coherent technical story.

    Defend It.

    FDA reviewers and auditors look for patterns.

    They assess whether validation demonstrates:

    • Logical requirement coverage

    • Adequate risk control verification

    • Proper anomaly resolution

    • Justified acceptance criteria

    • Structured release approval

    We provide structured V&V gap analysis and hands-on remediation support to:

    • Close traceability gaps

    • Strengthen risk verification alignment

    • Rebuild incomplete test documentation

    • Prepare validation summaries for submission

    Whether preparing for 510(k), De Novo, PMA, or ISO certification, we ensure your V&V framework is defensible under scrutiny.

    Evidence-based. Traceable. Inspection-ready.
