Although the project managers for both medical devices and buildings seem to have the same challenges, they have completely different tasks and risks along the way. The project manager for a medical devices project has to deal with the medical team and the designing team; they both usually work together. Both teams have to think about the purpose this device has to achieve and the design that is going to be best fit for this purpose, that way I think it is easy for the project manager to communicate with both of them at once. However, the process is long and has to have a lot of reviews. The process usually consist of: the idea conception, product and market review, business development, design, testing and validation… all the way to product lifecycle management. The planning phase is tiring as well, it includes material testing, packaging design, quality design, as well as research and studies. Of course everything has to meet the FDA regulations, which makes this process more challenging. On the other hand, for a building project manager, he has to deal with architecture and civil engineers, that do not work together. Usually the architecture part cares only about the shape and the civil engineers care only about how strong the building is, so they don’t work together most of the time. I think the process is easy since it is the same concept for every building, it is just a matter of weather challenges. However, they also have some regulations to follow, but they are not as strict as the FDA.
