The medical device industry, which is dominated by small and medium-sized companies in Germany, is a global success model with its innovative strengths. The predicted increase in demand of innovative medical devices offers further above-average growth potential.
A huge challenge for medical device manufacturers is the constant increase of regulatory requirements for the authorization and sales of medtech devices, for example with the EU-Medical Device Regulation (MDR). These regulatory requirements lead to delays in innovation and imply a considerable cost factor. In addition, complex supply chains and the growing number of product variants are increasing the pressure to digitalize manufacturing processes for paperless manufacturing.
Modern solution platforms that integrate all processes from design to engineering, planning and manufacturing - including ongoing documentation (eDHF + eDMR + eDHR) - up to an analysis, facilitate such a digital transformation. They reduce the use of paper and formats such as Word, Excel and PDF by up to 90 percent and enable Smart Manufacturing and Closed Loop Manufacturing.
We support our global customers in the medical device industry for more than 25 years with digitalizing, optimizing and automating their manufacturing processes. Initiatives such as Industry 4.0 provided a unique opportunity for our experts to contribute their know-how in manufacturing IT and shop floor integration for the implementation of industry standards.
