VQA Culture
“Quality is part of every product,” said Judy Carmody, Ph.D., eBook author, founder and Principal Consultant of Carmody Quality Solutions. “But the success of quality cultures can be challenging to measure. Compliance Architects’ Quality Pulse™ has the ability to quantify perceptions that can establish benchmarks and allow insight into the existing state of a company’s culture. It offers quality groups data they require to make well-informed decisions about what can be done to bridge gaps and improve a company’s quality culture and their performance overall.”
The 4 Pillars of a VQA Culture work in concert and focus on treating people as they wish to be treated—with respect and dignity. It allows a company to operate comfortably and efficiently from a position of knowledge and strength, as well as being mindful of the people who are doing the work.

Quality Pulse
The Quality Pulse® quality culture diagnostic is a scientific, research-based quality culture assessment model designed specifically for FDA-regulated and life sciences companies. The methodology was developed and adapted from well-established research, including:
- Organizational culture principles of Edgar H. Schein (MIT/Sloan);
- System dynamics principles of Peter Senge (MIT/Sloan);
- Dozens of research articles on corporate culture, quality culture, and organizational behavior, many in the life science context from 2000-present; and
- Decades of direct experience in quality operations across a variety of life science (pharma/device/biotech) organizations (100-100,000 employees).
Developed specifically to help organizations of all sizes understand the drivers of their culture of quality, the methodology and outcome reporting provides actionable intelligence that helps company leadership direct and implement improvement programs that will result in better quality outcomes and improved organizational excellence.
