Find every EU MDR gap before your notified body does.

What Gordios checks in your technical documentation, and why it matters.

EU MDR in practice: a file that has to prove itself.

The MDR doesn't just ask for documents. It asks for a technical file where every claim of conformity is backed by traceable evidence, kept current across the device lifecycle.

The GSPR are the backbone

Annex I sets out the general safety and performance requirements. Each applicable requirement must be addressed, the solution stated, and the evidence referenced. A GSPR checklist with empty evidence columns is the first thing an assessor opens.

Evidence, not assertions

Claiming a requirement is met is not enough. The technical documentation must point to the test, the report or the standard that proves it. Without that link, conformity exists on paper only.

Clinical evaluation and PMS

The clinical evaluation report and the post-market surveillance plan are living parts of the file. Reduced to one-off deliverables, they become the gaps a reviewer relies on finding.

One file, kept consistent

Risk management, clinical evaluation, labelling and the IFU must all tell the same story. A device that evolves without the whole file keeping pace creates silent inconsistencies — costly under review.

What Gordios examines, point by point.

Every check is located in your documents. Every gap is explained — not a global score, but a traceable, actionable result.

Domain checkedWhat Gordios verifiesCoverage
Technical documentationCompleteness and structure of the technical documentation per EU MDR Annex II and III Audited
GSPR (Annex I)Each applicable general safety and performance requirement addressed, with the solution and evidence referenced Audited
Clinical evaluationPresence and consistency of the clinical evaluation report with the device and its intended purpose (Annex XIV) Audited
Risk managementRisk management file present and traceable to the GSPR and the rest of the technical documentation Audited
Labelling & IFUMandatory label and instructions-for-use information per Annex I §23, consistent with the file Audited
Post-market surveillancePost-market surveillance plan and procedures present and consistent with the device class (Annex III) Audited

From requirement to evidence — without a broken link.

Every general safety and performance requirement must be linked to the evidence that proves it. Gordios checks that the chain is unbroken.

How Gordios audits your technical file.

Three steps, on your real documents. No configuration, no prior training needed.

01
You import your documents

Technical documentation, GSPR checklist, risk management file, clinical evaluation, labelling and PMS plan — you upload what you have. Gordios adapts to your documentation structure.

02
Gordios audits against the MDR

The tool verifies every point against EU MDR 2017/745: presence, consistency, traceability of evidence. Automatically, with no manual intervention.

03
You receive a traceable report

Every result is located in your documents. Every gap is explained. You know what holds up and what needs attention — with the exact source to back it up.

The most frequent gaps Gordios detects.

Not poorly-made files — but files built without the assessor's perspective.

Common gap · 01
GSPR claimed without evidence

The checklist says a requirement is met. The column pointing to the proof is empty, or points to a document that doesn't address it.

Common gap · 02
The clinical evaluation is out of date

The CER reflects an earlier version of the device or hasn't been refreshed against recent literature. The reviewer notices; the manufacturer rarely does.

Common gap · 03
Technical documentation gaps

A required element of Annex II — device description, manufacturing information, verification data — is missing or incomplete.

Common gap · 04
Risk management not linked to the GSPR

The risk file exists, but its outputs aren't traced to the safety requirements they're meant to satisfy. The link is missing.

Common gap · 05
PMS plan absent or generic

The post-market surveillance plan is missing, or so generic it doesn't reflect the device, its class or its real-world risks.

Common gap · 06
The file tells two stories

Intended purpose, labelling, risk file and clinical evaluation disagree on a detail. Each was right once; the device moved on without all of them.

EU MDR audit — common questions.

It checks your technical documentation against EU MDR 2017/745 — the General Safety and Performance Requirements (Annex I), the technical documentation structure (Annex II and III), clinical evaluation and post-market surveillance — verifying presence, consistency and traceability.

Gordios checks that each applicable general safety and performance requirement is addressed, that the solution adopted is stated, and that the evidence proving conformity is actually present and linked in the file.

Gordios performs an automated gap analysis to help you prepare. It is not a notified body; it shows you what an assessor is likely to flag before the real review.

Most runs complete in minutes. You upload your documents and Gordios returns a located, traceable report — no configuration or prior setup required.

Your technical documentation: device description, GSPR checklist, risk management file, clinical evaluation, labelling and IFU, and post-market surveillance plan. Gordios adapts to your documentation structure.

Yes. Your documents are processed securely and are never used to train models or shared with third parties.
