Case Study: Zimmer Biomet achieves FDA-certified, faster and more accurate orthopedic templating with Intetics

Zimmer Biomet Startup Relies On Intetics To Create A Brand New Application To Simplify Surgery Preparation

Zimmer Biomet faced a time-consuming and sometimes inaccurate process for selecting and ordering joint replacements prior to surgery and lacked in-house software expertise. They engaged Intetics to develop a tablet and desktop orthopedic templating application that integrates with hospital X-ray systems, supports secure multi-user access and cloud syncing, and meets FDA medical software standards.

Intetics performed requirements analysis and delivered a cross‑platform iPad and Windows solution using a single codebase, built on AWS (EC2, S3, CloudWatch, SES, SNS, load balancing) with secure cloud practices and FDA compliance, then provided ongoing support via an Offshore Dedicated Team®. The project delivered FDA certification, accelerated and improved accuracy of implant selection, enabled a 40–50% reduction in development costs versus separate platform builds (with up to 50% projected total savings), and culminated in the startup’s acquisition while Intetics continues maintenance.
