major healthcare OEM brings renal denervation system to market in 18 months with Plexus Corp.

The customer, a major healthcare OEM, partnered with Plexus Corp. to transform the treatment of severe hypertension with an innovative multi-electrode renal denervation system. Their challenge was to bring this complex Class III medical device from a loose concept to market in an ambitious 18-month timeline, a process that would normally take 24 to 30 months.

Plexus initiated the project with its Concept Convergence process to align all stakeholders on a single product vision and timeline. They then applied their full product realization services to design, develop, and manufacture the device, solving complex technical and supply chain challenges. As a result, Plexus successfully delivered the product on the 18-month deadline. The new system drastically reduced the treatment procedure time from 24 minutes to just 4 minutes, creating a faster, more efficient and profitable solution for doctors and a better experience for patients.
