In this episode of Consulting Leaders, we sit down with Meg Sinclair, Head of Quality at Qualio, to explore the dynamic world of quality management systems (QMS) and compliance in regulated industries. Meg shares her fascinating journey from healthcare to the med tech and life sciences sectors, where she now helps startups and scale-ups navigate the complexities of quality and regulatory affairs. At the heart of her work is the intersection of efficiency, compliance, and innovation, helping companies launch life-saving products while maintaining the highest quality standards.

Meg talks about the challenges that companies face when building and scaling quality systems and the common pitfalls to avoid, particularly in the startup space. She explains why consultants should focus on creating lean, flexible quality frameworks that grow with the business, rather than over-engineering solutions that become a burden as the company matures.

We also dive into how Qualio is revolutionizing quality management with AI-powered compliance tools and how consultants can integrate these solutions into their practices. From building relationships with key decision-makers to marketing complex, niche solutions, Meg provides practical advice on creating value and maintaining strong client retention.
