Manufacturing Cost Considerations
Profit = Sale Price – Costs to Produce
Truly a Simple Concept that applies to everything from Pet Rocks to radioisotopes for chemotherapy
A “realistic” sale price is ALWAYS what the market will bear

Manufacturing Cost Considerations
Tooling Considerations:
Lithographic: Tooling can last for life of production, changes relatively affordable: micromachining of stintsMolding/Casting: Tooling has limited lifespan,
changes can be expensive: CPAP, Backboard
Lifespan of tooling depends on process
1st Article Costs: Engineering/Labor/TestingProduction is not Prototyping, some
processes do not scale

Manufacturing Medical Devices….
Commercial distribution of medical devices requires compliance with FDA rules. Involves listing product with the FDA and documentation of compliance with “Good Manufacturing Practices” as listed in the Code of Federal Regulations, among other requirements.http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/PostmarketRequirements/QualitySystemsRegulations/default.htm#applicability (Overview)
