Usability engineering, IEC 62366-1 audit and AMM studies

I support medical device manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies with their usability engineering, document audit, CE/FDA strategy and AMM readability/usability studies.

Depending on your project's maturity, the support can cover scoping the process, auditing an existing file, building usability engineering deliverables, organizing user tests, or conducting readability and usability studies for medicines.

The goal: a clear, proportionate and defensible approach, suited to the product, its users, its use-related risks and the applicable requirements.

Strategy

Scoping the right process before taking action.

To define the necessary deliverables, prioritize useful actions, anticipate CE/FDA expectations, and avoid poorly scoped processes.

Discover strategic support

IEC 62366-1 audit

Assessing the compliance and robustness of an existing file.

Global IEC 62366-1 compliance audit, deliverable review, clause-by-clause analysis, compliance level, explanations and upgrade recommendations.

Support tailored to your level of autonomy

Not every team has the same resources, the same level of maturity, or the same timeline constraints. I can step in for punctual support, full project ownership, or a hybrid format, depending on your context.

Advisory & oversight

You have an internal team, but want to secure your methodological choices and get an expert perspective at key stages.

I help you scope, challenge and prioritize.

Ideal if…
…you want to build internal skills, keep ownership of your file, and validate the critical points of your process.
Full project ownership

You want to delegate a mission or an entire step: audit, protocol, user testing, analysis, report, usability engineering file, or AMM study.

I take charge of the expected deliverables, with a clear and documented methodology.

Ideal if…
…you're short on time, internal resources, or specific usability engineering expertise.
Hybrid format

You already have internal resources, but need expert reinforcement on specific sensitive points: strategy, use-related risk analysis, methodology, interpreting results, or preparing the file.

I step in where senior expertise adds the most value.

Ideal if…
…you want to split the work while reinforcing the most critical steps.
