IVDR Technical Documentation

our approach aimed at maximizing productivity & efficiency.

IVDR Technical Documentation

Under the new EU In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR 2017/746), every IVD device placed on the EU market must have complete Technical Documentation (TD). This is required because:

  1. Demonstrates Compliance: It proves that the device meets General Safety and Performance Requirements (GSPR) outlined in IVDR Annex I.

  2. Notified Body Review and Approval: Without TD, the manufacturer cannot obtain or maintain CE Certification.

  3. Ensures Transparency & Traceability: Authorities, Notified Bodies, and Competent Authorities can review it during conformity assessments, audits, or inspections.

  4. Patient Safety & Performance: IVDR Technical Documentation includes risk management, performance evaluation, and analytical data to confirm that the device is safe and performs as intended.

  5. Regulatory Obligation: Article 10(4) of IVDR makes technical documentation mandatory for all manufacturers (whether self-certified or via a Notified Body).

Role of Consultants in IVDR Technical Documentation

Preparing IVDR Technical Documentation is complex, especially with stricter requirements compared to IVDD. Consultants help by:

  • Gap Assessment

    Reviewing existing files (IVDD-era files) and identifying missing elements needed for IVDR compliance.

  • Structuring the Documentation

    Organizing files per IVDR Annex II & III requirements (Device description, design & manufacturing, GSPR checklist, performance evaluation, PMS/PMCF plans, risk management, etc.).

  • Performance Evaluation

    Supporting in literature search, clinical data appraisal, and preparation of Performance Evaluation Report (PER).

  • Liaising with Notified Bodies

    Preparing documentation in the exact format expected, handling questions, and responding to review comments.

  • Reducing Regulatory Risk

    Ensuring that the documentation is audit-ready, avoiding costly delays or rejections

  • Training & Process Setup

    Helping manufacturers build internal capability for Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) and Periodic Safety Update Reports (PSUR) under IVDR.

Overall IVDR CE Marking Process

  1. Classify device (A, B, C, D).

  2. Implement ISO 13485 QMS.

  3. Prepare Technical Documentation & Performance Evaluation.

  4. Undergo Notified Body review + onsite audit.

  5. Obtain CE Certificate → Affix CE Mark → Maintain compliance via PMS.

Is GMP compliance mandatory for medical device manufacturers?2025-08-06T04:26:10+05:30

Yes, GMP compliance is mandatory for medical device manufacturers who market products in the United States. The FDA enforces GMP through the Quality System Regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which outlines the minimum requirements for design, production, labeling, packaging, and storage of medical devices to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Do your firm provide UDI (Unique Device Identification) Support?2025-08-05T12:14:05+05:30

Yes, we provide full support for UDI implementation and registration in compliance with EU MDR 2017/745 and IVDR 2017/746 requirements. Our team assists manufacturers in assigning and structuring UDI-DI and UDI-PI codes based on the device classification and intended use. We also help in ensuring proper placement of UDI on labeling, packaging, and Instructions for Use (IFU), as well as preparing for UDI module submission once it becomes fully functional within EUDAMED.

Our services cover:

  • UDI-DI and UDI-PI structure guidance

  • Compliance with GS1, HIBCC, or ICCBBA issuing agencies

  • UDI label and packaging review

  • Preparation for EUDAMED UDI/Device registration module

  • UDI-related documentation for your Technical File and CE submission

By integrating UDI properly, we help ensure device traceability, reduce market delays, and support full regulatory compliance across the EU.

Product liability insurance under your service explain2025-08-05T11:06:35+05:30

As part of our commitment to regulatory compliance and risk management, we recommend that all non EU manufacturers have valid Product Liability Insurance when appointing us as their European Authorized Representative (EC REP). While it is not a legal requirement under MDR/IVDR for the EC REP to request proof of insurance, many Competent Authorities and Notified Bodies may inquire about the manufacturer’s liability coverage during inspections or audits. Having proper insurance also demonstrates due diligence and protects your business in the event of product-related claims in the European market. We do not provide insurance ourselves, but we can guide you on what to include based on your device risk class and market exposure.

Why UKCA Certification Matters for Medical Device Companies2025-08-06T09:44:10+05:30

After Brexit, UKCA replaced CE marking in Great Britain. Manufacturers must comply with MHRA rules to legally place devices on the UK market.

How quickly can I appoint your company as my EC REP?2025-08-05T10:26:16+05:30

We offer fast onboarding, typically within 1–2 working days upon receipt of the necessary documentation and agreement. We also guide you through label updates and document handovers to ensure a smooth transition.
