ARMATURE Fabric | The Role of Continuous Quality Improvement in Accreditation
An increasing number of accreditation bodies are encouraging the use of continuous quality improvement initiatives from their constituents. In this episode, we delve into the world of accreditation and explore how it goes beyond just being a certification or an accolade on your office wall. Accreditation is a dynamic process, a commitment to industry best practices, and a dedication to upholding the highest standards. And at the heart of this process lies Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI).
Accreditation serves as a badge of trust, setting apart organizations and businesses that strive for excellence. CQI, on the other hand, is a methodical approach to ongoing improvement. We explore how these two concepts are intricately linked, sharing insights into how CQI principles can be seamlessly integrated into the accreditation process.
Join us as we break down the four essential steps of CQI - Plan, Do, Analyze, Act - and discover how these steps can revolutionize the way your business or organization operates. From data-driven decision-making to fostering a culture of excellence, CQI proves to be a powerful tool for achieving continuous improvement.
We also introduce you to ARMATURE Fabric™, our accreditation and certification management software, designed to streamline data collection, auditing, and reporting functions.

ARMATURE Fabric | What Does Credentialing Mean To You?
Credentialing means different things to different people. Hear our thoughts on what it means to ARMATURE.
We often get this question when speaking with customers, business partners, or anyone else who wants to figure out exactly what credentialing means. And it’s easy to see why so many are confused. Because the word means different things to people in a range of contexts.
Some use the word “credentialing” interchangeably with “certification”. Hospital or healthcare credentialing is typically used to describe the process of obtaining, verifying, or assessing the qualifications of a healthcare practitioner.
Learn more here.
ARMATURE provides management software to support multiple areas within credentialing. Our focus for the last two decades has been in the delivery of accreditation management software, and certification management software (personnel, institutions, products). We also provide audit management software capabilities for standards such as ISO, ASME, and CWB, although this likely falls more in the bucket of conformity assessment versus credentialing.

ARMATURE Fabric | A Proactive Approach to Laboratory Audit Management
Quality leaders in the clinical laboratory space know better than anyone how essential audits are to the health of their organizations (and the stakeholders and constituents they serve). Not only do effective audits help ensure regulatory compliance, but they also provide visibility into the everyday details of your laboratories—and give you a way to troubleshoot issues before they snowball into compliance nightmares.
Stated differently, effective audits can drive organizational excellence.
What does it mean to run “effective” audits? Many companies still rely on manual audit processes, such as paper forms and spreadsheets, to collect and manage audit data. These manual methods can be time-consuming and error-prone, and they don’t always make it easy for quality professionals to spot trends, issue timely reports, and see the big picture.

Given the massive scope and significance of ASME’s work, the organization recognized the need to update its outdated accreditation and quality management system to better serve constituents—and partnered with ARMATURE to get the job done.
