On today’s episode, we’re introducing the newest addition to the greenlight.guru team, Jessica Lyons.

Jessica is a 2007 graduate of Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology and has worked in the medical device product development for nearly 10 years.

She worked in custom integration at Beckman Coulter, then worked on getting medical devices transferred to manufacturing at CRI, a medical device contract manufacture.

Jon and Jessica are discussing FDA inspections.

“It doesn’t matter your size, shape or how long you’ve been around. You’ll go through an FDA inspection.” – Jon Speer

No one looks forward to having the FDA come to inspect their facility, but you always need to be ready for it, as you might be subject to an inspection as frequently as every two years.

We want to put your mind at ease by giving you information on how to best prepare for FDA inspections, which can take a minimum of five to seven days.

“The FDA seems to find the one piece of information you wish they wouldn’t.” – Jessica Lyons

Some of the topics you’ll hear about it in today’s podcast include:
