Working with Safehand on our DCB0129 compliance was straightforward. The process was well established and robust. Our allocated CSO was an expert with real-world experience in our field and was able to quickly understand the product and its applications.

When we first contacted Safehand in 2020, we knew that we needed a partner for our DCB0129 and Medical Device efforts in order to be successful. Safehand has proven to be a 10/10 partner to work with. They have been able to leverage much of the compliance workload that is difficult for a small company such as us to manage. This has enabled us to learn and progress a lot faster than otherwise would have been possible. Thanks Adrian and Eric.

“We were and continue to be delighted with our interactions with Safehand. From the first email, through to the production of our hazard log, clinical safety workshop and final report we experienced the highest level of professionalism, matched with not only extensive knowledge of the clinical safety issues but real enthusiasm to make our product better. This enthusiasm has led our team to become even more focussed on clinical safety and led to a real organisational change in designing, improving and releasing our code updates. We are looking forward to working with Safehand as we develop and enhance our offering.”

We contacted Safehand to consult on the DCB0129 process with us towards the end of 2024. Being a small team, the process was initially daunting but Paul and the Safehand team helped break the process down for us and provided expert guidance on what was required.
