Phased Design Support
Leading You Through the Process
Depending on your project needs, we can provide full support from early design stages to complete medical device assembly.
Early involvement in the design cycle allows our experts to provide valuable Design for Manufacturability and Assembly (DFMA) input helping you avoid potential manufacturing failures. We utilize Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA) throughout your tooling and process development to ensure we adhere to your production specifications in all possible outcomes.
Throughout the DFMA process, our manufacturing and quality engineering teams work with your designers, engineers and quality resources to finalize tolerances, design, measurement and verification requirements. This ensures your products can be manufactured to achieve the required performance in the most economical way.
Regular status meetings led by your project management team ensure we have a mutual understanding of your project scope and timeline. We will work to ensure your project is ready for production on-schedule with a streamlined manufacturing cycle.
Staged Gate Process
For highly complex and multi-faceted programs, our Cretex Medical | CDT team employs a staged-gate approach to manage product realization from prototype development through product launch. This process ensures you have input and approval every step of the way. We deliver optimal New Product Introduction (NPI) outcomes for our customers by combining experience, expertise and program management.
