Planning
This initial program phase is used to identify key requirements necessary to bring your product to market, built upon user needs and intended use. Assessing concepts and demonstrating feasibility of those concepts define how we proceed towards a design that meets your needs.
Design
In this phase, we’ll have formalized product plans, design inputs, system architecture and sub system requirements, ensuring the product meets the many requirements needed for the system and its intended use.
Verification & Validation
During V&V, design verification (DV) medical device prototypes are built and released. Formal testing of design verification and validation, as well as regulatory testing, occurs and is documented to prepare for process validation.
Design Transfer
In this final stage, we complete all activities needed to transfer the Device Master Record (DMR) to manufacturing, culminating in a pilot build of systems. Once complete, broad production can occur.
Our depth of expertise in specific clinical segments is strengthened by our dedicated team, refined processes, and specialized portfolio and proprietary platforms.
Reduce execution risk by working with a medical device design company known for over 1600+ medical devices developed.
Leverage our proprietary platform architecture and reduce development timelines by up to 60%.
Our in-house team of specialized engineers will bring your medical device from concept to reality with precision and care.
Start your next medical device project by partnering with a company that has successfully gained approval for over 1,600 medical devices.
Our team of experienced program managers and engineers will develop a project plan for your device following our robust 4 stage development process, providing clear planning, tracking, and execution.
During this process, we will leverage a customized team of in-house quality, regulatory, mechanical, industrial, software, electrical, test and manufacturing engineers to bring your specifications to reality.

The standards for medical device design include adherence to ISO 13485 for quality management systems, compliance with ISO 14971 for risk management, and meeting specific regulations like the FDA’s Quality System Regulation for medical devices.
These standards guide the design process, from initial concept to final product, focusing on user needs, product performance, and patient safety. Regular audits and reviews to ensure these standards are met throughout the device's lifecycle.
During the medical device design process, it's important to consider the following factors:
ISO 13485 sets requirements for a comprehensive quality management system in the design and manufacture of medical devices.
Requirements include:
This standard ensures that medical devices are consistently designed, produced, and distributed to meet both regulatory and customer requirements.
ISO 13485 and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) differ in scope and application.
ISO 13485 is an international standard that outlines requirements for a quality management system in the medical device industry. It ensures consistent quality, product safety, and compliance with customer and regulatory requirements.
GMP is enforced by the FDA in the USA. It focuses on the actual production process, including raw materials, staff training, and facility hygiene.
Class II medical devices do require design controls. The FDA mandates these controls to ensure that devices meet user needs, intended uses, and specified requirements.
Design controls are a systematic set of practices that manufacturers must follow during the development process. They include defining user needs, establishing design inputs and outputs, verifying that designs meet requirements, validating device effectiveness for intended use, and maintaining comprehensive design documentation.
