LAWRENCEVILLE, N.J., Dec. 19, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 1WorldSync, the leading multi-enterprise product information network, has partnered with Globizz, a market-leading FDA solution provider. The partnership gives enhanced access to UDI database registration and FDA compliance solutions for Japanese healthcare companies seeking to export products to the U.S. market.

1WorldSync is the only certified GDSN data pool operating in Japan equipped to help customers meet UDI requirements in the local language. The partnership allows Globizz customers to leverage 1WorldSync’s deep experience in UDI compliance within the medical device market and provides additional consulting services for Japanese healthcare companies expanding to the U.S.

“With the highly regulated nature of the medical device market, businesses require advanced support to meet the product information requirements necessary to sell their products across borders,” said Dan Wilkinson, Chief Commercial Officer of 1WorldSync. “Our dedicated staff of UDI database registration experts in Japan, in tandem with Globizz’s FDA compliance solutions, will provide Japanese companies the support and expertise to scale and distribute product information that complies with today’s regulations.”

Compliance with FDA regulations for the medical device industry requires barcodes to be placed on the device label/packaging and device data elements to be submitted to the FDA’s Global UDI Database (GUDID). Globizz partnered with 1WorldSync, a world leader in the product data industry, for its recognition as a qualified UDI issuing agency by the FDA. This partnership enables easier data management and global expansion while eliminating the language barriers Japanese healthcare companies encounter while seeking to export products into the U.S. market.

“This partnership will allow Globizz to continue to offer the highest quality consulting services in a timely manner, support client’s barcode needs and help expand businesses in both the U.S. and Japan,” said Takahiro Harry Haruyama, President and CEO of Globizz. “As partners, Globizz and 1WorldSync will assist in the full compliance of UDI requirements for the Japanese medical device industry, which is an important element to their success in the U.S.”
