Designing Beyond Launch: Managing Design Debt in Medical Devices

“Boston Engineering was instrumental in supporting the development of our first medical laser, which we successfully took through FDA pre-submissions within nine months of project inception. Together, we convened a team of domain experts to support the development of our hardware and software, including a custom enclosure, fiber delivery instrument, and bespoke software designs. Guided by a common vision, our teams collaborated weekly, and occasionally in person, to design and test the individual components until they were ready to be compiled into our prototypical device. Boston Engineering’s team was professional and courteous, and brought a wealth of knowledge and experience that helped accelerate our project delivery.”
