Time-to-Market


Increasing partner profitability by radically slashing time-to-market

For medical device manufacturers, time-to-market means time-to-money. After the long investment phase required for developing new medical devices and testing them in rigorous, FDA-compliant clinical trials, companies and their investors are eager to see returns on FDA-approved devices and procedures.

However, market introduction of products is too often hampered by delays in the redesign and prototyping process required to optimize the imaging technology that makes the new procedure possible – and/or in moving from prototypes to volume manufacturing, a process that for most traditional endoscope manufacturers averages 2 years or more.

The BioVision team has radically slashed the time needed to move from design and redesign to prototypes to volume manufacturing, achieving design to volume manufacturing cycles in, on average, 6-9 months, with prototypes often available for clinical trials in a month or less.

We accomplish this radical shortening of the design, prototype, and volume manufacturing cycles via:

  • Materials (such as micro-lenses and micro-prisms manufactured using proprietary processes) that allow virtually unlimited flexibility in design and redesign
  • Proprietary design procedures (optical, mechanical and electronic), and supporting software, that radically shorten the design and redesign process
  • Proprietary manufacturing processes, developed by the BioVision team, which radically streamline volume production of micro-optics
  • A streamlined, compact, portable endoscope tower – the SurgView™ – that allows rapid redesign options in a light, portable package that sells for a fraction of the cost of traditional endoscope towers.
  • Scope designs which leave room for redesign in articulation, tooling space, etc.
  • Long-term proactive relationships with key global manufacturing affiliates who support and are core to BioVision’s turn-on-a-dime manufacturing abilities
  • Global sourcing channels for key materials and components that support just-in-time manufacturing needs as well as reduce costs
  • A corporate culture that takes pride in our ability to customize products based on partner requests
Thus the BioVision team offers a shared mission of service to our partners, and to the physicians, surgeons, and patients they serve. This shared mission allows us to enable innovative medical procedures via custom micro-visualization solutions with unbeatable time-to-market – and time-to-money – for our partners.
