Talk Is Cheap, So Here’s How We Do It…
WITH SOME REAL LIFE EXAMPLES
REQUIREMENTS & CONCEPT
DEVELOPMENT
Humans are at the center of every successful medical product. They buy your product, they use your product. We perform Voice of Customer activities including Usability Testing, Persona Development, and Experience Maps, to understand and optimize appeal to your target market. We get to User Needs and Engineering Requirements fast. Using rapid prototyping methods, we generate a conceptual design in days or weeks that you and your customers will love.
ENGINEERING & FUNCTIONAL PROTOTYPING
A product has to not only look good, it has to work. Here at FPD Medical we use our talented engineers and fully equipped prototype shop to get you what you need fast. Our engineers are Solidworks trained. We are an FDA registered small business with a lean and mean quality system. With our extensive network of partners, we can fast-track your development. After all, time to market matters.
VERIFICATION & VALIDATION TESTING
At FPD Medical, we rely on a time-tested, fast, flexible, fun, iterative approach to product development. We communicate, prototype, and test every step of the way, which means more creative solutions from us, and a better overall product for you. Our goal is to get a high-quality, fully functional product to market as quickly as possible.
MANUFACTURING TRANSITION
We are more than just product designers, engineers, and managers. Our team is skilled at executing product line setup, equipment validation, and manufacturing documentation to help transition the process smoothly. With our extensive network of highly-qualified and experienced vendors, if we can’t build it in-house, we know someone who can.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Someone you trust will manage your project every step of the way. Our clients have a dedicated point of contact throughout the process who will provide regular project status updates, track spending, and review open action items. Communication is key, which is why we keep in touch at least once a week so that there are no surprises.
REGULATORY & QUALITY
Medical device regulations are complex. We can help you navigate them. Our industry experts can help you put together your quality system, as well as get your product approved in the USA, Europe, Canada, and more.
YOUR PARTNER IN MEDICAL DESIGN INNOVATION
You need to know what you are paying for before you sign up. Nobody likes surprises. We know. We have been on the receiving end of low-ball estimates and cost overruns too. That is why we provide a transparent and detailed work breakdown as part of our estimate, which we typically deliver in 1-2 days. Our flexible, fixed-price billing options work within any budget. We are here to be your long-term product development partner.
FPD has been instrumental to the progress and success of our company. The design creativity, engineering skills, and drive to complete critical tasks on time is why we consider FPD a key partner, an extension of our team.
Flying Pig Designs is one of those rare companies that just do what they promise on time and on budget. Their team is not only creative, but practical and energetic. I would recommend FPD over any other engineering firm I have worked with in the past!
FPD has been a trusted partner to us for several years due primarily to their consistency of execution but also due to their flexibility and adaptation to various pivots in our business and engineering objectives. They view our projects through the lens of our mission – our objectives are their objectives – and deliver.
