ONLINE EVENT – Navigating the Design to Manufacture Journey: Risks, Regulation & Standards
3rd June 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm BST
Risks, Regulation and Standards
10th June 12:00 – 13:00
Hardware development is fraught with risks. There is risk to the project inherent in the uncertainty of design and the progressive impact of changes made late in the process. There is also responsibility on the developer to consider the efficacy and safety of the product through its life-cycle. Can it be manufactured and used as intended? Are there unintended consequences that due care could avoid? Regulations and standards exist to protect users and manufacturers as well as the hardware developers themselves. In this session, we’ll hear about different challenges and approaches associated with risk, regulation and standards. This is a broad topic and we will just scratch the surface but there will be an opportunity to ask questions during the Q&A session.
