Risk Management
We manage risk throughout the design workflow - applying the ISO 14971-1-2012-standards-based approach to risk management.
Following this standard enables us to establish risk management requirements and to use these during the product life cycle to determine the safety of a manufacturer’s product (particularly for medical device safety).
ISO 14971 is a nine-part standard that first establishes a framework for risk analysis, evaluation, control, and management, and also specifies a procedure for reviewing and monitoring during production and post-production.
