FDA Registration

Company Profile
MTG, recently purchased by Accellent, Inc., a manufacturer of surgical instrumentation and implants, employing (85) people, requested TMEP to train their lead auditors on the ISO standard ISO 13485:2003.

Situation
MTG received correspondence from one of their major customers that they have to be FDA registered to continue to supply this customer parts. This customer provided MTG (Accellent) over ($10) million in sales for the previous year and projection were for a substantial increase for the current year. MTG (Accellent) was aware of this requirement and had contacted TMEP to start the process of pursuing their FDA registration.  

Solution
MTG (Accellent) was striving for their FDA registration and after the initial FDA registration visit TMEP provided assistance with a written response to FDA along with guidance in correcting deficiencies. With TMEP MTG (Accellent) was successful in obtaining their FDA registration.  

Results
After MTG (Accellent) received their FDA registration this allowed them to pursue more of the medical implant market. With three of the major implant manufacturers in the Memphis area MTG (Accellent) has been able to increase sales to these manufacturers by over $4 million.
