A market size of approximately 18.6 billion USD is expected to be reached by product design and development services worldwide by 2028.

Between 2021 and 2028, the market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 11.6%.

Low product costs, quick market entry times, and the growing need for advanced technologies are among the factors boosting growth.

It is extremely challenging for medical and life science companies to develop cutting-edge products within short timeframes and comply with strict regulatory requirements for medical devices while keeping costs down.

In addition to internal factors, such as designing and production, manufacturers face significant challenges when it comes to getting high-quality, cost-effective products to market faster. Design, engineering, and manufacturing teams work together to develop product models in medical device companies following a design-to-manufacturing approach. As a result, this increases the effectiveness of the development and designing process as well as product quality.

It is anticipated that outsourcing design engineering will witness healthy growth over the forecast period as more manufacturers – from startups to established firms – gain leverage from design engineering outsourcing benefits such as product design improvement and reduced costs to gain a competitive edge.

Further growth is anticipated as a result of IT being incorporated into the larger healthcare industry, as well as improved analysis regarding both 3D models and other software, with third party employees being trained in this field, aiding development speeds.
