Ritu Sharma

Founder & CEO · Sharma Scientific LLC

Sharma Scientific grew from Ritu's work in the Bay Area biotech ecosystem and nearly a decade spent in laboratory settings. Experience across cancer biology, gene engineering, laboratory operations and quality management revealed a recurring need: strong science needs equally strong systems.

Founded in Buffalo, New York, Sharma Scientific offers three ways to engage: quality advisory, hands-on project delivery and internal auditing. Ritu leads every engagement directly, bringing a bench-level understanding of the work behind the documentation.

Common questions

Before we begin.

Can you build a quality system from scratch?

Engagements can include gap assessment, process mapping, document hierarchy, SOP development, implementation guidance and internal audit preparation. The scope is tailored to your organization.

Can we work together remotely?

Yes. Sharma Scientific is based in Buffalo, New York and offers remote consulting for clients in the United States, Canada and internationally. Scope, applicable standards and location-specific requirements are confirmed before work begins. Any on-site work is discussed and agreed separately.

Do you support medical-device quality systems?

Potential support can include quality-system gap assessment and documentation readiness. Applicable standards, technical scope and required expertise are confirmed during consultation.

Does consulting guarantee certification or approval?

No. Sharma Scientific provides consulting and audit-readiness support. Certification and regulatory decisions are made by the relevant certification organizations and authorities.

How are fees determined?

Fees depend on the scope, deliverables and timeline. After the initial consultation, you receive a proposal for a defined project or ongoing advisory arrangement.

Can you audit systems you helped build?

Internal audits must be objective and impartial. We evaluate potential conflicts before accepting audit work; where independence would be compromised, the audit scope is adjusted or an independent auditor is recommended.
