SEATTLE, March 29, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Product Creation Studio, a Seattle, Washington-based product design and development firm, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded ISO 13485:2016 certification, the internationally-recognized quality standard for medical devices.
As a leading medical device design firm, Product Creation Studio adopted ISO 13485:2016 certification to underscore the company’s commitment to continuous improvement and excellence in product development for the healthcare industry. The recognized quality management system dedicated to design and verification of medical products is a component of a more comprehensive business quality system called PCS+.
“Product Creation Studio is committed to high-quality development services,” Cameron Smith, CEO, Product Creation Studio said. “We have worked diligently to ensure that our custom quality system, PCS+, meets or exceeds the standards required. We apply our system to each and every effort, whether designing a medical device, consumer-facing hardware or an industrial product. Our quality standards help our clients deliver the safest and most effective products to market.”
The certification is the result of an extensive assessment performed by BSI Group and confirms that Product Creation Studio’s quality management system has been effectively implemented to the requirements of ISO 13485. The latest update to the standard was released in 2016 and is intended for use by companies involved with the design and production of medical devices.
ISO standards ensure that products are safe, reliable and of good quality. An ISO quality system provides the highest standard of design by assuring every aspect of product design is addressed. International standards represent a massive consensus on organizational quality. The FDA, EU and Health Canada all recognize the ISO 13485:2016 standard as a preferred means to meet their requirements for quality management of medical device development.
