MedTech + commercial app development

Rapid mobile app prototypes and minimum viable products.

JonWard Studios designs and develops mobile apps for MedTech and commercial teams. Current builds can include iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.

We put the primary workflow on a device early so the team can test it, review it, demonstrate it, or use it in investor meetings. An MVP can be used for beta testing or a human factors study.

Discuss an app

Choose the build level

One development path. Two delivery stages.

Every project begins with Stages 01–03. Prototype projects conclude after Stage 03. MVP projects continue through Stages 04–06 for beta use or a human factors study.

Prototype / concludes after Stage 035–10 business days

Build one primary workflow.

An app that completes the selected workflow from start to finish.

  • Up to six distinct screens
  • One core workflow
  • One device type: iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch
  • Mobile app prototype
  • Concept and workflow testing
  • Internal review, demonstrations, or investor meetings
MVP / continues through Stage 0620–30 business days

Complete the essential app functions.

An app for beta use or a human factors study.

  • Up to twelve distinct screens
  • Up to three core workflows
  • iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, or an agreed combination
  • Mobile MVP
  • Beta testing, a human factors study, or demonstrations

Client review and testing builds are provided through Apple TestFlight. Delivery targets begin after the scope and required project inputs are agreed.

Included with the build

Software, testing, and development records.

Every project includes a design and development file. Its contents reflect the product and agreed build scope.

01

App design and development

Screens, interactions, requirements, and application software for the agreed workflow.

02

Design and development file

Agreed requirements, design, risks, traceability, testing, and release records.

03

Usability engineering file

Intended users, use environment, workflow, and completed usability work.

04

Source handoff

Source repository and project files for the completed build.

MedTech projects

Add the MedTech records.

MedTech work also includes a Preliminary Regulatory Strategy, preliminary PMS search, and usability engineering file.

MedTech design projects consider applicable FDA guidance and the following standards: ISO 13485, ISO 14971, IEC 62304, IEC 62366-1, IEC 81001-5-1, ISO/IEC 27001, and ISO/IEC 42001 when AI applies. Other standards may be included by request.

MedTech app development

The six-stage development path

Prototype first. MVP continues.

Prototype projects conclude after Stage 03. MVP projects continue from the accepted prototype through Stage 06.

PrototypeStages 01–03
01

Define the product.

Confirm the users, objectives, workflow, branding, scope, evaluation scenarios, and regulatory strategy for MedTech projects.

02

Design the experience.

Develop the requirements, architecture, screens, data flows, risk controls, and test plan.

03

Build the prototype.

Create and evaluate a working prototype through hands-on customer review.

MVP continuationStages 04–06
04

Develop the MVP.

Expand the accepted prototype with the planned functions, integrations, and configuration.

05

Verify the product.

Complete functional, regression, usability, security, and risk-control testing.

06

Deliver and hand off.

Complete customer evaluation and deliver the build, source code, records, and instructions.

Full development work is also available for projects that continue beyond the prototype or MVP stage.
