In a world where medical devices or in vitro diagnostics (IVDs) and health applications are becoming
increasingly complex, so too are the requirements and procedures for developing these devices.
Today’s engineers often struggle to implement new methods and regulations, while also continuing to work as efficiently as possible when they develop novel technology products.


Each system – or system of systems, in some cases – goes through an engineering lifecycle, which is
sometimes referred to as a product development lifecycle. In terms of today’s DevOps and value
chains, these life cycles can range from a very early ideation phase to end-of-life activities for an
obsolete product.


In some cases, key practices are simply added on to existing legacy workflows, whether it is modern
engineering methods or new regulatory requirements:

➡️Artificial Intelligence

➡️Computer Systems Assurance

➡️Legacy Quality Management Systems

➡️Truly Integrated Lifecycle

Simply adding spot improvements often results in an inflexible process landscape without an
