Orthopedic OEM & ODM
Have a product design ready to manufacture, or a brief that needs development? Discuss OEM or ODM support with YUBMEDTECH, including the implants, instruments and supply requirements for your market.
When is OEM the right route?
OEM starts with your product design and specification.
For a product with existing drawings and specifications, discuss OEM manufacturing. We review the materials, component features, machining, finishing and inspection requirements for that design.
Provide the current drawing revision and list the matching instruments or accessories. Review feasibility, sample evaluation, quantities and required documents before agreeing the manufacturing work, schedule and quotation.
Where does an ODM project start?
ODM starts with the product you want to develop.
For a product that needs design or development work, discuss an ODM project. Describe the product family, market and configuration you have in mind, and explain what your team needs the development work to resolve.
Agree which design work, material evaluation, testing, instruments and documents belong in the project. Define responsibilities and review stages before development begins, including the design and sample approvals needed before manufacture.
How do OEM and ODM project inputs differ?
| Project input | OEM | ODM |
|---|---|---|
| Starting point | Your drawing and product specification | Your product brief and requirements |
| Early discussion | Manufacturing feasibility and agreed specifications | Design requirements and development scope |
| Before manufacture | Drawing revision, samples, inspection and quantity | Agreed design, evaluation work, samples and quantity |
| Supply details | Packaging, labelling, documents and destination market | Packaging, labelling, documents and destination market |
What else belongs in an orthopedic brand project?
Consider the implant, its instruments and the details needed to supply the finished range.
Should instruments, labelling and packaging be discussed with the product?
Yes. Include the instrument set, accessories, packaging and labelling in the project brief. These affect what needs to be developed, manufactured or supplied, so they should be considered with the implant.
For private labelling, identify the product references, brand materials and destination market. Review the required product information and documents alongside the quotation.
How should a brand review a proposal before moving to manufacture?
Compare the proposal with the approved drawing or development brief. Check the included components, materials, finishing, sample review, inspection requirements and documents, together with quantities and the proposed schedule.
Resolve outstanding technical and market questions before approving the work. The agreed specification should identify the individual components and responsibilities within the order.
