Legacy Systems – The Bottleneck of Progress
In the medical device industry, legacy systems represent a significant bottleneck, hindering efficiency and innovation. As an industry that’s inherently complex and tightly regulated, the incorporation of advanced technology is not just an advantage; it’s a necessity. These outdated systems are often siloed and lack the agility needed for the fast-paced regulatory environment, resulting in delayed response times, increased risk of non-compliance, and ultimately, a slower path to market for critical medical innovations. The reliance on manual processes not only drains resources but also introduces a higher margin of error, affecting overall product safety and efficacy.
The Dawn of Automation and Machine Learning
The introduction of automation and machine learning into the medical device industry marks a pivotal shift. These technologies offer the promise of streamlining complex processes, from manufacturing to post-market surveillance. By automating routine tasks, companies can allocate more resources to innovation and strategic initiatives. Machine learning, in particular, provides the ability to analyze vast datasets, predicting trends and potential issues before they become problematic, thereby enhancing decision-making and operational efficiency. A recent survey by the Medical Device Innovation Consortium (MDIC) indicated that automated systems can reduce report processing times by up to 30%. Moreover, they can enhance accuracy in adverse event reporting, which is critical given that the FDA receives several hundred thousand medical device reports (MDRs) annually.
One of our customers reported “with Smarteeva’s automated systems, 60% of their complaints are now resolved through Machine Learning and AI with zero human interaction”. This truly depicts Smarteeva’s mission and is a remarkable achievement; when compared to typical industry standards.
