Project Consulting: Product Development

From start-ups to Fortune 100 organizations, we lead critical projects and resolve projects in crisis.

Waddell Group provides strategic level project leaders for the medical device industry. Beyond essential medical device project management skills (defining scope, approach, and budget), our highly experienced consultants know how to lead teams, manage in times of crisis, and influence change. We offer expertise, intellectual property, and proven methodology. Our Project Managers have the talent and experience to rescue medical device projects that have gone into crisis. They know how to manage the extensive path to deliver market-ready results using their leadership skills to align teams and achieve a common goal.

We “lead” projects. This means we own the project. We are responsible for setting the goals, defining the approach, teasing out the relevant information from subject matter experts, interfacing with relevant groups and management, ensuring team members meet their commitments, and making the project happen.

We don’t wait for team members to bring forward their info and then just package it. We need to and do understand content and context for everything that goes on in the medical device project. Once on board, we learn enough to be conversant and participate in the regulatory strategy, medical device manufacturing, and market development of the project.

Our project managers have managed teams as small as 5 to teams with hundreds of members. Our team has experience in the therapy and diagnostic spaces, as well as working on regulatory issues. Most of our project managers are engineers by training and have done cardiac, neurological, urological and auditory projects. From drug to bio to combination devices to Class 3 implantable devices, our team has seen it all.
