You have proven the feasibility of your assay in the lab and are ready to start the engineering phase to develop the physical product that will embody your solution and package it for the marketplace. This presentation will outline both the common next steps that you will need to follow during the engineering process and a key, often-overlooked development process: High Risk Function Development (HRFD). The HRFD process is a product development technique that focuses on the functions of your device that are most likely to require multiple iterations to achieve, and therefore present a relatively greater risk to the project schedule and budget. The common development steps that will be discussed include defining requirements, key metrics, materials, manufacturing processes, target unit costs and achievable project timelines. These and other key steps will be presented that substantially mitigate the risks of schedule delays and cost overruns when thoroughly executed early in the development process.
