Successfully managing change through integrated manufacturing operations management

This white paper is derived from and based upon primary research on the “Future of Change and Configuration Management in the Med-Tech Industry” conducted by Axendia. Industry executives and professionals in product design and manufacturing know all too well that the only constant changes. Today, as the rate of change for medical device manufacturers is continuously increasing, Med-Tech organizations cannot afford to aim for average.

To support the increased rate of innovation, Med-Tech companies must stop chasing defects and instead manage product changes as a set of data instead of documents. To succeed in this changing environment, medical device manufacturers must focus on improved product outcomes while simultaneously supporting shorter innovation cycles driven by closed-loop integrated systems that allow for real-time decision-making based on real intelligence.
