Focused expertise for the toughest drug delivery challenges

Emergency Devices
Engineering out failure in emergency devices (5-9 reliability)
Reliability targets above 99.999% demand constraint-driven design. We build robustness into the architecture so reliability is proven from the start.

Ultra High-Volume Production
Designing devices to scale at ultra-high volume
Scale reveals hidden sensitivities. Our approach removes failure modes early - avoiding NCs, design changes and new documentation in mass production.
Risk-Based Interface Design & DFMEA
Risk-Based Interface Design & proactive risk assessment tools
Interfaces define reliability. We link requirements to specifications and manage variation and sensitivity all the way to your component details. Failure modes and risk prioritized and mitigated at the design level from the start.

Client results

We helped a European medical device manufacturer secure a smooth production ramp-up by conducting a Robust Design assessment of a diabetes care device before release.

We worked with a US-based pharma R&D team of 40+ engineers to continuously monitor and improve injection device design.

We enabled a global device R&D and manufacturing unit to scale production sixfold — with zero re-runs on tooling and manufacturing qualification.

We guided an executive make/buy decision for injection devices through full 8-discipline assessments and KPI benchmarking.

We supported a MedTech R&D team in releasing a new apparatus four months ahead of schedule, implementing visual performance tracking to raise team execution.

We trained and coached an R&D and project management organization, embedding robust development practices while revamping core processes.

Fit first, solutions second

Our best work happens when the challenge and collaboration are right. If you want to explore whether RD8 is the right partner, let’s start there.
