Medical Device - QSR Compliant Product Development Process


Medical Device - QSR Compliant Product Development Process To be held on 23th to 24th Jan 2014 at San Francisco, CA

 Course Description:

 Integrating the requirements of 21 CFR 820 into a product development process is challenging. Done poorly, it drags down the design process and puts you at risk. Done well, it delivers quality products, resource efficiencies and compliance that are easily demonstrated to the FDA.

 You can’t afford to be in a position where either design controls or the product development process are weak. Design controls are essential to safety and effectiveness. The FDA reports ineffective design controls are the root cause of as many as 31% of recalls. Ineffective product development processes are slow, costly and often miss significant business objectives.

 This seminar on quality system regulations for medical devices market will show you how to build a best practice stage gate product development process that not just incorporates 21 CFR 820 design controls but keeps you ahead of the competition and easily shows compliance during an audit. The process showcased in this course will also fulfill QSR requirements, produce the objective evidence necessary to prove compliance, manage resources and deliver quality products.

 Learning Objectives:
 The seminar will focus on understanding:
 The key elements of 21 CFR 820 design controls
 Best practice stage gate product development
 How 21 CFR 820 design controls can be integrated into a stage gate product development process
 How to link to intended use, user needs, risk management and manufacturing processes
 How to manage both new product development and design changes
 How to manage marketing, costs and schedule requirements in parallel with the regulatory processes
 How to systematically create the required objective evidence and how to easily produce it during an audit
