Medical Device Contract Manufacturing Market, 2019-2030

Medical Device Contract Manufacturing Market is Estimated to Reach a Net Worth of Approximately USD 430 Billion in 2020

Recent advances in data science technology solutions, such as Internet of Things, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and real-world evidence-based solutions, have enabled medical device developers to digitize and automate a number of product development and manufacturing processes. In 2020, the global medical devices market is estimated to reach a net worth of approximately USD 430 billion. However, most developers lack adequate resources and the necessary expertise to manufacture medical devices and related components. Moreover, given the rapid rate of evolution, the costs associated with acquiring the necessary infrastructure and capabilities in this field are high; therefore, it is difficult for companies with limited finances to acquire such resources and carry out such operations by themselves.

In addition, the evolving regulatory guidelines and complicated pathways to establishing reimbursement strategies render medical devices subject to rigorous quality assessments, especially for medium and high-risk devices. The aforementioned constraints have led many of the smaller players and certain established players to outsource a significant part of their manufacturing operations to capable contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs). CMOs are known to offer significant cost-benefits, access to sophisticated/up-to-date infrastructure, large production capacities and reduction in time-to-market.

Given the demand for medical devices, the opportunity for CMOs with expertise in medical devices is steadily rising. In fact, in 2018 alone, the USFDA approved over 100 medical devices. It is worth highlighting that, since 2000, more than 65 CMOs have been established. The demand for one-stop-shops and versatile supply chain management solutions have fuelled consolidation activity in this domain.

Contemporary contract service providers have been focusing on bolstering in-house capabilities to offer a wider range of services to their clients, covering product design to distribution and marketing, along with regulatory assistance. The medical device sector is among the most highly regulated industries, and we expect the demand for core competencies, such as design and engineering, prototype development and high volume manufacturing, to continue to drive sponsor companies to outsource various parts of their product development and manufacturing operations to capable contract service providers. Amidst tough competition, the availability of advanced tools and technologies is an important differentiating factor; CMOs that invest in such upgrades are likely to gain a competitive edge.
