Design | Reliability | Manufacturability = DRM

DRM in Our DNA

A culture of continuous learning and critical thought that strives for reliability and quality through collaborative design processes.

Achieving supplier excellence with DRM practices, methods and tools by integrating training into our development process will improve Medtronic’s product performance, reliability, manufacturability and costs. It is our expectation that our suppliers proactively participate in the DRM process. It is essential that we work together to understand requirements, design for manufacturability principles, and design robust processes where capabilities are understood and effectively controlled.

Your Role as a Supplier:

  • Be active and dedicated throughout the entire process
  • Be open to changes
  • Look for ways to continuously improve in all aspects of your company
