Most regulatory agencies require medical device manufacturers to have a Quality Management System (QMS). A QMS is a set of policies, processes and procedures needed for planning and executing an organization's core business. A medical device company's Quality Management System should cover all parts and elements of a manufacturer's organization that deal with the quality of processes, procedures and devices. It manages the structure, responsibilities, procedures, processes and management resources needed to implement the principles and actions necessary to ensure compliance with the regulations of their target markets.

Regulators of different countries conduct audits of manufacturers' Quality Management Systems to determine whether the QMS complies with the quality regulations applicable to medical device companies. Manufacturers in other countries that sell their devices in a specific market are also subject to QMS audits.

The quality system provisions of the European Union are set out in Article 10 of Regulation EC 2017/745 and Annex IX (Regulation EC 2017/746 in the case of in vitro diagnostic devices).
