CDRH’s 3-Year Priorities Include Building Collaborative Communities

CDRH released a three-year plan outlining its priorities for the next three years, including employee engagement, streamlining of processes, and building “collaborative communities.”

The plan features a single goal to measure overall success.

“As a measure of success, we aim to have more than 50 percent of manufacturers of novel technologies for the U.S. market intend to bring their devices to the U.S. first or in parallel with other major markets by December 31, 2020,” said CDRH Director Jeff Shuren.

The three priorities are aimed at achieving this goal, though it is not clear how the center will assess the intention of manufacturers of novel devices.
