This article was originally published in The Gray Sheet
Executive Summary
Former CDRH Office of Compliance Director Steve Silverman advises device manufacturers to address two common "quality nightmares": competitors passing them by as they address quality issues and regulatory enforcement actions that can cause them to fall behind other firms. "Good quality doesn't just save device-makers from less-than-baseline compliance; in fact, good quality usually saves money due to fewer compliance deviations," Silverman writes along with his McKinsey & Co. colleagues David Keeling, Enno de Boer and Ted Fuhr in this "Gray Sheet" Medtech Talk column.
