Searching country-specific safety databases, ongoing literature reviews, and audit-ready reports under the MDR and IVDR: What PMS requires today is still done manually in many companies. This ties up resources that are urgently needed elsewhere. Automation is the obvious solution, but success depends not only on choosing the right tool, but also on whether it is implemented in a regulatory-compliant manner. The partnership between Metecon and Flinn shows how the two go hand in hand.

A collaboration based on shared convictions

Flinn impressed Metecon from our very first meeting: structured automation of repetitive PMS tasks, validated software, and a clear regulatory foundation. Since then, we have confidently recommended Flinn to companies with precisely these needs. The professional exchange between our teams has also been intensive from the very beginning: Metecon provides user feedback from real-world projects, while Flinn keeps Metecon up to date on further developments. This reciprocity is not a byproduct of our partnership, but its very core.

Why Flinn and Metecon are such a good fit

PMS has become an ongoing process with direct implications for clinical operations, risk management, and documentation, particularly under the MDR and IVDR. At the same time, the manual effort required for literature searches, database queries, and report generation is significant in many companies: data from various sources is manually consolidated, searches are repeated, and reports are laboriously prepared. This ties up resources that are lacking elsewhere.

Flinn automates precisely these tasks: in a structured, reproducible manner, with traceable results. Metecon complements this technological strength with:
  • in-depth regulatory expertise in PMS, Clinical Affairs, and Technical Documentation,
  • independent consulting on the implementation and regulatory-compliant integration of the AI solution,
  • practical experience from client projects that directly informs the solution's implementation.
This creates a comprehensive system that not only works technically but also stands up to regulatory scrutiny:

AI automation + regulatory expertise = efficient, audit-ready, and scalable PMS processes

Flinn and Metecon: What sets this partnership apart

Metecon operates completely vendor-neutral in this partnership, as in all other digitalization partnerships. We do not receive commissions and recommend Flinn only if the solution fits a manufacturer's specific needs. At the same time, Metecon holds its own licenses and knows Flinn inside and out. This ensures a level of consulting quality grounded in experience.

"Flinn addresses the areas where manufacturers lose time every day: repetitive, data-intensive tasks in PMS and clinical operations. What makes our partnership special is Metecon's deep regulatory expertise and the fact that the team consistently integrates technology and regulatory considerations."

Bastian Krapinger-Rüther, CEO of Flinn

"Flinn relieves teams of the data-intensive routine work that repeatedly arises in PMS processes and makes the results audit-ready. This is not a minor efficiency gain, but a structural relief that frees up capacity that manufacturers urgently need elsewhere."

Alexander Fink, Managing Director of Metecon
