Falls Church, VA and Cummaquid, MA (PRWEB) May 1, 2008 FDAnews and Industry Directions Inc., in close association with research analysis partner Cambashi Ltd, today announced that executives from a group of medical device manufacturers have helped guide the research effort into multiple aspects of risk management and how they contribute to increased profits and business success. The industry council members for this project include Bob Lundberg, VP Regulatory Affairs and Quality for eVent Medical; Patti Burandt, Project Manager for Gaymar Industries; independent Consultant Linda Lovett; Robert Dicheck, VP of Quality and Regulatory Affairs for Osmetech Molecular Diagnostics; and, John Dzelme, IT Systems Integration Analyst for Roche Diagnostics, and executives from other major medical device companies. This select group of people has helped draft the new survey on current industry challenges, practices, systems, and opportunities. The Industry Council represents a broad cross-section of the medical device industry, both large companies and emerging growth players making relatively simple to very complex products. During meetings and one-on-one exchanges with the research team, the members of the Industry Council have ensured that the research focuses on issues critical to the business success of medical device manufacturers. The research team is seeking responses from all medical device manufacturing companies through May 6. All responses will be aggregated and individual responses will remain strictly confidential. The online survey is open at: http://www.fdanews.com], http://www.industrydirections.com], or directly at http://www.surveymethods.com/EndUser.aspx?F4D0BCA5F6BEA6A6]. "These Industry Council members' contributions are pivotal to the success of this project," said Julie Fraser, principal of Industry Directions Inc. and project leader. "Their varied viewpoints have helped refine our thinking and aligned the research more closely with what medical devices companies must consider to mitigate risk and improve profitability." "Without the participation of these industry participants, we would certainly have missed some of the nuances of what makes medical devices such a challenging industry, such as the many facets of risk management and the magnitude of the perceived tradeoff between profits and risk," said Matt Salt, publisher of FDAnews. The results of this survey will be released at the Fifth Annual Medical Device Quality Congress June 25-27 in Cambridge, MA in a special session on the research, Risk Management: Best Practices for Medical Device Profitability. This research ties in closely with this year's conference theme, Leading the Way to Better Performance With Quality Systems Compliance. About FDAnews
