Quality and Regulatory

Quality and regulatory considerations are most effective when they stay connected to the technical work. This page outlines the quality-focused practices and regulatory context that support disciplined medical device development.

OUR QUALITY FRAMEWORK

Quality connected to the technical work.

A disciplined development program keeps requirements, risks, testing, and documentation connected as the design evolves.

Design Controls

Keep design inputs, outputs, reviews, and development decisions organized around defined requirements.

Risk Management

Identify and evaluate product risks as the design develops, then use those findings to inform technical decisions.

Verification & Validation

Plan and document testing that evaluates whether the device meets defined requirements and intended-use needs.

Documentation & Traceability

Maintain clear records that connect requirements, decisions, testing, and development outputs throughout the program.

QUALITY THROUGH DEVELOPMENT

Quality considerations at every key decision.

Quality is not a separate step at the end of development. Requirements, risk, testing, and documentation should remain connected as the program moves toward transfer and commercialization. 

Requirements

Define the needs and design inputs that guide development.

Design Decisions

Evaluate design choices against requirements, risks, and downstream needs.

Risk Management

Identify and address product risks as the design evolves.

Testing & V&V

Plan and perform testing around defined requirements and intended use.

Transfer Documentation

Prepare the records and technical information needed to support the next stage.

REGULATORY SUPPORT

Keep regulatory needs connected to development.

Regulatory expectations can influence requirements, testing, documentation, and the path to market. Identifying those needs alongside the technical work helps teams make more informed development decisions.

QUALITY RESOURCES

Supporting quality information.

Data-Driven Quality

Use measurable quality information to support monitoring, evaluation, and continuous improvement.
