The challenges presented in project management for medical devices compared with project management for building a school or skyscraper, is that products or treatments need to be reviewed several times before being used or sold to people. This ends up taking a very long time for the product itself to be available. Because medical devices is designed for the well-being of people, safety and confidence in the product must be assured. If there happens to be something wrong with the product or treatment, they have to redesign it and go through the process all over again of checking for safety. I’d say that project management for medical devices requires a lot of patience because plenty of time is being involved.
