In this short video, Mike Jovanis, VP of Vault Quality at Veeva Systems, discusses key considerations when evaluating cloud-based quality management systems (QMS).

Due diligence is key for organizations that are going through cloud-based QMS evaluations. An understanding that the industry, on the whole, has reached an inflection point and there may be a very different set of thinking that exists today than it has existed over the past 20 years.

Here are some key points from the video:

- Look at the vendor that you're going to do your next system implementation with through the lens of who's the right partner for the next 10 years or longer.
- Undergo granular level evaluations that really understand both the differences at the core functional level, but also understand the transformative benefits that can help prop up a business case
- Remember this is an investment that's going to stay with you for a number of years.
