One of the big projects going on around the time I was interning was this change from one method of sterilization technique to a new method of sterilization technique. The project manager had broken down the schedule into different phases. During when I was interning, they were just starting to test materials. So there would be different groups testing various implants. They were gathering all these implants and sterilizing them in this new method and sent them out for testing. Then once testing was done, they would receive the parts and perform more analysis on them. Within that entire process, there were sub-processes. So the manufacturing team would make a few lots and send them out for testing. Then receiving would get the parts back and send them to packaging. Packaging would then process the parts and package them where they would be sent back to sterilization for Gas Plasma sterilization in the “new” method. This was just a small phase. There were other phases which involved regulatory, marketing, R&D, etc. It was a very wholesome project because it was interesting to see how every department plays a role in a project.
