Systems Engineering
In-Vitro diagnostic systems involve the integration of multiple technologies into a device that is easy to use, in spite of its internal complexity. Engineering and scientific disciplines are often compartmentalized, leading to integration delays late in the project timeline. A Systems approach to the design, development and testing process can be used to identify potential issues and plan for proper remediation early in the product lifecycle. We have extensive experience with Systems Integration Mapping and Planning for in-vitro diagnostic systems.
In today's IVD products, you will see the integration of electronics, mechanics, optics, micro-fluidics, macro-fluidics, reagents, pneumatics, software, firmware and sample collection devices. Product development involves the integration of all of these disciplines into a single, easy to use product. Whether your device is used at the Point of care(POC) or in a central laboratory, we can help you become 'systems thinkers'.
There are several techniques for system integration mapping that highlight the interfaces between subsystems and provide a visual tool for managing the integration and testing process. They are not complicated or expensive.... just effective.
