Immersing ourselves in the environments where these products will be used—ICUs, operating rooms, home care settings, and more means uncovering where breakdowns occur, why they happen, and what’s been tried before. It’s not just research—it’s discovery. It’s strategy. And it’s the foundation of effective design.

If your device isn’t solving a user need or improving on existing technology , it will be difficult to succeed in the market. Make sure you identify the right problem—before you invest in the wrong solution.

In-Context Research That Drives ROI

True innovation starts with truth. That means design teams partnering with Human Factors engineers and clinical experts to conduct real-world, observational research early and often. Going beyond focus groups and surveys enables you to gather actionable insight:

  • How do clinicians actually interact with the tools they use daily?
  • Where do patients struggle with instructions for use or usability?
  • How does the environment influence performance, safety, and outcomes?

This research becomes the strategic blueprint that informs design decisions, reduces development risk, and leads to products that are not only compliant—but commercially viable.

Design That Rethinks the Status Quo

Design is more than just a phase or meeting a compliance requirement — We must challenge existing norms and assumptions at every turn:

  • Can this be assembled in fewer steps?
  • What if we made error-prone tasks impossible to get wrong?
  • How do we simplify the complex without sacrificing performance?
  • We know the regulatory landscape. We understand the constraints of manufacturing. And we never forget that meeting an end user’s needs leads to the product’s success.

Seamless Integration Across Every Phase

At many organizations, design is siloed—handed off between discovery and engineering. But the most effective approach integrates design throughout the entire development process. When industrial designers collaborate directly with mechanical, software, and regulatory teams from day one, the original vision is far more likely to survive the full journey to market.

The result? Faster timelines, fewer misalignments, and smarter products.
