See our product development process from start to finish.
Our engineering team uses Stage Gate techniques in the Vista product development process. Stage Gate has five phases from start to finish:

#1
Definition of the Project Scope
#2
Product Design & Development
#3
Process Design & Development
#4
Product & Process Validation
#5
Assessment & Corrective Action

Our Design Review Process
We use a multi-step design review process to make sure we’ve covered everything, including:
- Project scope
- Product specifications and performance
- Product manufacturability
- Product improvement changes
- Testing requirements (general or custom)
- Technical hurdles
- Regulatory testing: agency and timeline
- Development release requirements like manuals, testing, and manufacturing procedures
- Packaging requirements
- Overview
What Stage Gate Covers
Within these five phases, we cover aspects such as:
- Design robustness
- Design testing and specification requirements
- Production process design
- Quality inspection standards
- Process capability
- Production capacity
- Product packaging
- Design testing
New Product Introduction
Finally, if you have a brand-new product, we’ll help you introduce it with:
- Product improvement recommendations
- Custom packaging designs
- Prototype capabilities (3D printing)
- Industrial/process engineering
- Assistance in code certifications
- Custom quality testing
