Medical Device Engineering Consulting

Engineering medical devices that are safe, effective and ready for market.

PHC LOBER partners with medical device innovators to move from concept to production — with design controls, risk management and verification built into every step.

  • ISO 13485 & FDA QMSR aligned
  • ISO 14971 risk-based
  • Concept to design transfer
What we do

End-to-end medical device engineering

Focused expertise across the product development lifecycle — engaged for a single deliverable or as an extension of your engineering team.

Product Design & Development

Concept through detailed design for electromechanical, disposable and wearable medical devices.

Design Controls & DHF

Traceable design history files built to FDA QMSR (21 CFR 820) and ISO 13485 expectations.

Learn more →

Risk Management

ISO 14971 risk management files that drive design decisions, not just paperwork.

Learn more →

Verification & Validation

Test strategy, protocols and reports that prove your device meets its requirements.

Why PHC LOBER

Engineering rigor with regulatory awareness built in

Medical device development is different. Every design decision has to be justified, traceable and safe. We bring an engineering-first mindset that keeps your documentation and your design moving forward together — so you're not reconstructing a DHF at the end of the project.

  • Risk-driven design. Hazards are identified early and mitigated in the design, not the labeling.
  • Traceability from day one. User needs, inputs, outputs and verification stay linked throughout.
  • Right-sized process. Documentation that fits your device class and stage — not bureaucracy for its own sake.
  • Flexible engagement. Project-based, milestone-based or embedded support.

Standards we work to

Our work is aligned with the recognized standards and regulations that medical device reviewers and auditors expect to see.

  • ISO 13485
  • FDA QMSR · 21 CFR 820
  • ISO 14971
  • IEC 60601-1
  • IEC 62304
  • IEC 62366-1
  • ISO 10993
  • ISO 11135 / 11137
How we work

A clear path from idea to production

Our engagements follow a structured, phase-gated process that mirrors the design control lifecycle.

  1. Discover

    Clarify clinical need, intended use, users and constraints.

  2. Define

    Translate needs into design inputs, a plan and an initial risk analysis.

  3. Design

    Develop, prototype and iterate with formal design reviews.

  4. Verify & Validate

    Generate objective evidence the device meets its requirements and user needs.

  5. Transfer

    Release a manufacturable design with a complete DMR and validated processes.
