FDA Regulatory Consulting

FDA Medical Device Regulatory Planning
  • MilkyWay Production's FDA Medical Device Regulatory Planning Services:
    • We understand the product development process, the FDA regulatory process and the relationship of these processes, We can create a regulatory strategy based on your situation. This strategy will include actions you take, what you document, what submission process to take, how to structure your clinical trial, etc.
        
  • How MilkyWay can assist you:
    • Many underestimate the economic value of a carefully thought out FDA regulatory strategy. Because of our experience and understanding of the FDA, through planning we can help you to:
  • Minimize the time it takes to get through the submission process, by correctly laying out the steps required and preparing your submission appropriately
  • Minimize the cost spent in the submission process by defining a specific roadmap that allows you to identify the correct type of submission, eliminate the typical clinical trial management mistakes and reduce quality system implementation errors
  • Maximize your product revenues by enabling you to sell your product while the FDA reviews your files
  • Optimize your competitive situation by thinking through how your submission type and structure will effect your competitors, suppliers and customers

FDA Quality System Strategy

  • MilkyWay’s FDA Quality System Services:
    • Assuring FDA compliance to quality system requirements is critical for all medical companies. The quality system requirements are defined by QSR (Quality System Regulations) /cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practices) guidelines which are specified by the FDA.
    • The process by which to achieve compliance to these requirements is different for each company. For example, large companies may need to prioritize geographically-different operations based on size/importance and implement systems accordingly. A smaller company may need to prioritize which elements of the quality system to implement first (e.g. work instructions, design control) in order to get in compliance quickly.
        
  • How MilkyWay can assist you:
    • Making these types of decisions requires thought and planning because these decisions will affect the speed and cost of the total implementation, potential savings that could be realized through a quality system implementation and the level of comfort the FDA will have that you are implementing a compliant quality system.
